Well designed short game course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 14, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Adult and youth pads for every hole. Attention to detail in almost every respect. Excellent for practicing your short to mid game. Excellent for practicing hitting your line and shaping lines on short throws. It plays VERY quickly with two players coming through in 45 minutes for a full round.

Cons:

These are only MILD cons, not full gripes.
The pads are semi-permanent rubber and could used to be leveled better. (This is mitigated by the fact that you can make most every shot without a run-up.) There is no signage on the course, but pretty much every pad is visible from the previous basket so it's really not needed even if it's your first visit.

Other Thoughts:

Hole 9. The basket is hidden behind a clump of trees. It's easy to miss and throw at hole 10's basket. We did that twice before we noticed the basket we had walked past.
Don't bring your distance drivers, you won't need them. There are only a couple holes that I felt comfortable grabbing a fairway driver.
If you want to throw bombers, this isn't the course for you.
I'm honestly not sure how a better course could have been built in the small amount of space that this one uses.
