Pros:
Ferguson Park is located on the outskirts of downtown Snohomish, Wa. The course is a family friendly pitch and putt, with a gazebo, bbq pits, playground, and basketball court.
The course has well maintained Innova baskets that are durable and catch well. The park itself is quite pleasant with plush green grass on the majority of fairways, with some tighter wooeded holes, and elevation on hole #8. Holes # 1 and #7 are the longest of the bunch, just breaking over 200 feet, and incorporates the land nicely considering how small the area is. Hole #8 is a blind shot that throws over a wooded hill in to an open field. Just make sure there is nobody having a picnic or laying out near the basket.
Cons:
The rest of the holes on the course with the exception of holes # 1, 3, and 7 are extremely short and provides ample opportunities for an ace. Hole #5 is around 50 feet and is almost a guaranteed ace. I have played the course five times and aced that hole a few times, along with hole #3 once!
Other Thoughts:
Even though the designers of the course had the right intentions, it is a shame that the course is not more challenging. However, if you are looking for your first ace or are bringing out some firends for the first time, the course works. Perhaps they might want to think about incorporating the middle of the park or making another course in Snohomish since there is so much land surrounding the city. Making fewer yet more challenging holes on their current course would be another option. Unless you are new to the game or a course bagger like myself, you would be better off skipping this course since it is out of the way and look elsewhere.
