Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Oct 12, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is spread out in a nice, multi-use park. There are concrete tees and nice tee signs that have a diagram, hole number and list the distance. The hole numbers are listed on a big sign on top of the basket.

There's a good variety of distance ranging from 225 to 420 feet but most holes are 300 feet or less. The course has mature tree to navigate on every hole. Some holes are a bit more on the open side while others have enough trees to force you to hit your line to be rewarded with a birdie.

Cons:

There's a lot of walking between holes on this course. I didn't see anything that points you from one hole to the next so it can be a bit difficult to navigate the course and find the next hole.

The road is a bit close for comfort to one hole (5 maybe?). The basketball course is rather close to the fairway on hole 2. There are a couple other places where errant shots could interfere with other park users so please watch for people.

Hole one forces a turnover shot for RHBH players, but the rest are straight or hyzer shots.

The tee pads are a bit on the small side.

Hole 6 is missing its tee sign. A few of the baskets are missing the large sign on top of them, but it's easy to figure out what basket you're shooting at so I didn't find this to be a problem.

Other Thoughts:

Overall this is a nice little 9 hole course that's good for newer and more intermediate skilled players. Like most 9 hole courses, there isn't too much challenge but there doesn't need to be considering 9 hole courses are usually intended for more casual players and as a place to introduce new people to the game.
