-Solid gravel teepads.
-Short and long tees.
-Alternate tees viewing baskets from different directions.
-Variety of shots used.
-Woodsy challenge.
-Cool creator (JimB).

-While I can appreciate homemade baskets, some still lacked the exact feel of an official Innova/DGA basket.
-No wide open holes to let the drivers loose.
-Poor/no signage (not really an issue since this is a private course and you shouldn't be playing it unless accompanied by the designer).
-Multiple tees using the same basket could cause major problems for large numbers of people playing (also not an issue since it's private).

I'll admit, I came into this not sure of how it was going to be just because it was a private course essentially in someone's backyard. But it definitely turned out to be more fun than I was expecting. First off, the designer and property owner JimB is a super nice guy. He welcomed me out to play it while they were having a little tournament, and I had a great time.

I was impressed for what he has done with the area he has. He took a hillside covered with saplings and oaks and made a decent course that didn't feel too monotonous. It's only nine baskets, but four different tees make it feel like more. I struggled between the 2.5 and 3 rating, but went with 2.5 simply because of the lack of variety when it comes to foilage. I'm not saying the course was too hard, just that I appreciate a good mix of wooded/open holes in a course.

Still, If you're in the area, I'd suggest giving Jim a call. If he decides that you're not a complete psycho, he might show you around (the course is afterall at his house).
