Pros:
18 hole course that winds through Hatten Park in New London, WI.
DGA baskets, all in good repair and caught well. Most holes seemed to have one pin position, but a few had two, namely the wooded holes in the middle of the course.
Concrete tee pads, which were all in good repair. They were a touch short for my taste, and I don't have a large run up. Also, there seemed to be a few randomly placed tee pads, which weren't marked on any signs.
Nice signs, with distance, hole number, and intended route. Navigation was pretty simple, and playing solo, I pretty much breezed through the course. Well laid out and designed in this regard.
Lots of mature hardwood trees provide most of the obstacles here. A few tunnels shots in the woods were nice. Also, the first two three holes were pretty fun, with a touch of distance and tighter lines.
Cons:
This isn't the toughest course around. After the first three holes, (save for one hole) most everything is pretty short, in the 180-230 range. You could easily run about 13-14 holes on this course with a putter/mid. Even with all the big trees, many of the holes are pretty open, with minimal shot shaping required.
There's some safety concerns here, especially at the beginning of the course. The first three holes play somewhat near a reasonably busy road. Granted, you'd have to miss pretty badly to put it over there, but it's a concern. Also, hole 4 plays right along the tennis courts, and is a straight 300' shot. To be fair, I was there on a beautiful Saturday afternoon, and nobody was in those courts.
While I liked the wooded holes in the middle, they were all basically the same shot. Straight, in the 200-240 range. Cool holes, but a bit repetitive when grouped together.
Not really any elevation or water, but there is just enough roll in the terrain to not make it feel uber flat.
Other Thoughts:
Don't take my cons to mean I didn't like this course. While it's not tough, it's still fun. At the end of a 6 course bagging day, it was nice to have a course that wasn't a beat down. Beginners will love it here because they'll score reasonably well, and other players will enjoy lots of ace runs and mid/putter throws. This is also an excellent spot for groups to play.
While I wouldn't go out of my way to play it again, if it was local to me, I'd probably play it a decent amount. It's a nice course in a nice park.
