EPIC North course is a fun 18 hole layout, with well manicured grass and nice new baskets. It plays very fast, with a short layout that is very well suited for a new player. The tees are small rubber mats, and navigation is fairly easy to follow. There is some OB territory in the form of roads and parking lots. Very little risk of losing discs, although there are a few woodsy holes, and a bit of brush that is kind of heavy.

Great for practicing the short game, and can be played with minimal selection of discs. I played the bulk of the course with my mid range and putter, but did take a driver out of the bag on 10 (overkill), and the final hole. Hit chains on hole three, and there are many chances to put an ace on the card.

The back 9 was more interesting than the front, with the paths through the woods giving a bit of shape to the tee shots.

Tees are small, rubber mats on the grass. You really don't need much runway on the drive most of the time, but it's nice to have. No tee signs, but at least the compact area is fairly easy to track.

The front 9 is largely open, with sparse trees on a couple of holes. The biggest hazard is throwing OB, with holes that are near pavement here and there. Holes 2, 5 and 6 are in close proximity to the pavement, and 2 got me for a penalty stroke.

I shot 2 down on my round. 2 bogies and 4 birdies. A hot round could dip well into the 40's. I might go back and give it another try. Getting two rounds in and hour and a half is not unrealistic. Wind might be the X factor that could ruin your day here.

The people on the course were all very friendly. This would be a great course to play with the family. There isn't much draw for the experienced player, but nice enough for a casual round. They did well with the land that was available. I wouldn't say there are any signature holes, but a couple of tricky lines on the back 9 through the trees will offer a bit of resistance.
