Pros:
+ Quick, easy wide open play around a flat park with a few decently long holes. Holes 5 - 9 are 325' - 480', providing opportunities to air it out with few obstacles
Cons:
- Tee for hole #3 is up on a hillside, but the concrete tee is tipped downhill, making for a very unstable runup (rundown?)
- Seven baskets are used for the nine holes, and navigation is a bit confusing in places. Some of the baskets have tape on the cages to indicate the direction of the next tee - but several have multiple pieces. The basket used for holes 5 and 7 has four pieces of tape, all pointing in different directions. Since there's no signage marking the tees, you should expect to wander around some the first time through
Other Thoughts:
~ The Conodoguinet Creek runs along the back of the park. It makes for a pleasant view, but never comes into play. The middle of this large field is dotted by stumps of old trees. Most of the course is in a flat bowl, so it's probably very wet after any significant rain or snowmelt
~ Hole #4 (430') is a par 4, but Hole #9 (482') shows on uDisc and DGCR as a par 3. Despite what the uDisc and DGCR say, it made more sense to me that they both play as 4's.
COURSE AMENITIES:
Small concrete tees, no signage, rusting but still decent DIsCatchers. Bathrooms open during park hours. On-street parking only. There's a paved walking trail around the perimeter, so civilians might come into range if they're present
RECOMMENDED COMBINATIONS:
Not worth a visit by itself unless you live close by and want a pleasant, unchallenging round. Pair it with the superior Thundering Herd nine at the Wilson Middle School in Carlisle, or use it to warm up for 18 at Coyote Hills,
