Good pine barrens course read 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 11, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

The trees, hills, & fields make an interesting time

Cons:

There are a few holes that exist just to move you. Thy are the least fun holes.

Other Thoughts:

I enjoy the whole thing, but the end holes could be better. If I ever have the chance to go back, I will.

Well layed out, pretty challenging 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Oct 13, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Fun and challenging 18 basket course in the woods with sometimes fairly narrow fairways. All tees are now brick pavers and are currently marked with helpful signage. Most holes are par 3 with a few par 4 and one par 5. Baskets are visible from the tee on about half the course, the rest are dog legs. Great course for all players to learn but still a challenge for seasoned guys. There were some trees left in the fairways and the surrounding areas are densely wooded. I'm hooked.

Close parking
Well marked
Challenging

Cons:

Mostly tight holes with lots of trees, even on the few open holes
Denting a lot of discs on the trees
Some short tees dont appeared built or finished, making for minor confusion on a couple holes

Other Thoughts:

Had a good time jogging through this course in about an hour.

Rewardingly DiffIcult 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 16, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

-New paver tees on every hole
-Moderate to DiffIcult design
-Rewarding, yet fair par structure
-Very well laid out, has potential to become one of the best in the state.
-Short tees on longer holes for the daunting lines
-People; I can't stress enough how great the community is down there. Very welcoming to new comers and visitors alike.

Cons:

-Cleanup needs attention. Course is in an area of the pines previously used by atv traffic and the land was not well maintained by previous users. Debris is probably the only downfall of this course.. For now.
-Parking is ample, but in school football/lacrosse season there are times of congestion. Rarely an issue, but good to note.
-Bring bug spray in the summer. It's not the worst I've seen, but better safe than sorry!

Other Thoughts:

Amazing course with every line you can think of between the 18 tees. It can test your ability on one hole, yet peppers in the "get em" 2s that make the hard ones even more worth it.

New tee signs are on the way right now and an updated course map is coming in the near future for the kiosk.

The local team is putting countless hours into getting this course in top shape and it shows. If recommend this course to anyone who likes the woods.

Awesome Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 23, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course is a ton of fun, I have just started playing this the last month so my review is from someone new.I think this course is amazing the guys were out redoing the tee boxes with paver stones. Everything looks amazing and the course is challenging. I see a lot of people complaining about the trees, but we are playing in the woods, after all there is a mixture of open holes and tight holes. I have managed to shoot an average score of 70-73. Which I know is not killing it but it is enough to keep me going 2-3 times a week.

Cons:

Just use bug spray, I have only gotten 1 tic so far but I have used bug spray ever since and haven't gotten one.

Other Thoughts:

I hope to keep playing this course as it is busy now that the weather is getting nicer. Also parking lot gets crowded when there are weekend sporting events.

2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 9, 2015 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

This course is 15 minutes from my house on LBI which is a very popular vacation spot in the summer. Tee pads have much improved. Benches are going to be installed very soon. Walkways, alternate tees, and 9 more holes were also added. This is a very fun addicting course.

Cons:

Flooding can be an issue it's nothing to complain about.

Other Thoughts:

living 15 minutes away I have seen this course grow from not having baskets in the ground to a great Course with 18 baskets in less than a year. Ryan works very had to keep the course in shape. Every week it seems cleaner. Also I'm noticing more and more people playing.
