Hole 10 was awesome! 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Oct 20, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

-It was quite a fight. This bloody match between me and Mulberry often had me and Mulberry wounding each other. I sent the throws after the baskets, and General Mulberry sent the trees after me and they wounded me. I about went to the medical center about playing hole 9, but decided to just jam the dagger out of my back and shoot it back on hole 10. And I didn't miss!

This place is like a battle in the game disc golf for an advanced or pro player. Fight to stay under par and make as many birdies as possible. I made nine birdies here and only shot -3. It was a bloody match but it felt good to take down nine holes. This place is almost fully wooded, so the trees will be the ones after you here. There are some easy holes that'll help your score, and there are some brutal holes with trees spaced out.

-Dual pads on just about every hole. Just about every hole if not all of them have at LEAST two pin positions. Some holes here have three. So if you've been here once, there's a good chance your experience will be different the next time. Many of the alt. pins have you throwing down a different fairway. For instance, hole 14. There's a left pin position and a right pin position. From both it's a tough putter shot, but is much different. It's like this on many other holes too, such as 11, 15, 16, or 17.

-The tee signs are very accurate, and something that makes them stand out is how there are three small holes on each sign labelled "A", "B", and "C" and there's a ring in the hole that indicates which pin position you are playing. That was super cool. You won't have to walk up the fairway to look and see what you are aiming for to fire at.

-Interesting fairways. I liked many of them. You'll need every weapon you have with you to fight this course. There's a possibility that you throw every disc in your bag here.

-Hole 10 is the " ultimate hiding spot." It's the only open hole on these course. And luckily it's a huge hiding spot. It's the longest hole here and there aren't many trees you have to worry about, and luckily they aren't sharp shooters because they are easy to avoid. This was by a country mile and a trip to the saloon, the greatest hole on the course. The basket was in the C pin, which is 930' par 5 from the pad. Hole allows you to throw as far as you can without a lot of risk. Only risk is throwing a shank to the rightside which I did on my second throw, but was left with a short approach shot that made this hole an easy birdie for me. This is an easier hole for recreational players to try and make a five on. Oh and to make this hole even better, it has a 60+ elevation loss. Doesn't look that much downhill on the media, but you'll see every bit of it when you play here.

-Another neat hole was 17. It was in the B pin when I played. It's a dead straight 270' gauntlet. I loved this hole. I threw a judge and hit the basket but if I did anything different, I probably would've bogeyed this hole. Throw your straightest disc. The A pin is a left to right lefty hole or an ideal sidearm hole for a righty. The small gap is makes it equally difficult but still interesting. Course ends pretty easy with 18. The fight's just about over and this is your chance to fire one last shot. This hole is uphill and was in the 225' pin straight ahead. The long pin is another hole for a lefty or a sidearmer. But is still an easy par and potential birdie for a righty backhand thrower such as myself.

Cons:

-Honestly, I wasn't overwhelmed with this course. Just hear me out, I didn't dislike it. I just got annoyed with some of the holes here. The main hole I disliked was hole 5. It was in the C pin, so it's uphill nearly 30'. It's one of those holes that I call a par 3 with a par 4 fairway. It's a dogleg right that turns right nearly 200'. At the bend, there are many trees lined up more than prepared to shoot you down. There's not a legit way to birdie this hole because there are many trees spread out but still aren't far from each other. You're bound to hit one. Didn't like 16 either; the line was only a little bit weird but wasn't too odd. The main issue with this hole was that it was kinda boring. Another issue was the approach shot on hole 9. You have to sneak through probably forty trees on the pin to the right. Same goes for the left pin. This course requires lucky sneak shots in a few places.

-Hole 4's fairway is really weird from the short pad. You can't throw a short shot that hyzers that much. It's a much better hole from the long pad because it allows a big hyzer that will have a bigger turn.

-#15's short pin position is horrible. Should not exist. The long pin is a pretty good par 4 down a more defined fairway to the left. The short pin is straight ahead and there are three trees that create two crapshoots. If the middle tree (the one next to the left tree on top of the hill) was cut, then this hole would drastically change for the better.

-While most holes were good. There wasn't as much shock given to me or my friend that came with me as we thought. It was mainly the odd fairways that we weren't fond of, but when we left, we said what we thought about the holes and we had to refresh our memories on a few of them.

Other Thoughts:

-I hate to be sort of a downer here because people seem to really love this course. I liked it; it had some fun holes that looked very neat. Hole 10 was a true standout; one of the funnest holes I've played in Georgia. But I wasn't a fan of every hole here. Some holes seemed a bit repetitive and looked similar to each other and the holes that were similar were the ones with weird fairways that required odd throws. Yeah yeah yeah you trolls, I hear you "Stop getting mad and get better." The better a player gets, the lesser room they have to improve. Disc golf isn't that simple and life isn't always fair. Effort and practice won't always pay off during a round and you're going to have to find a way to be able to realize that and the fact that the world is not your friend no matter what BS you hear on TV or on the internet. Pipe down. I can't see how even touring pros can reach hole 5 in the C position here.

-There are two entrances. If you don't see any baskets in sight, or a huge meadow (hole 10) then you are in the other parking lot which is maybe a quarter mile away from the course. If you turn right on Hog Mountain Road, then turn left on the second entrance you see. If you turn left on the road, then take the first entrance you see. You might see a basket before you turn right in the parking lot.

-Course is very well groomed, so lost disc potential is low. The course is very polished. The grass was a little tall on hole 10 but did not convince me to throw short. If you haven't played here, then I'd recommend it. You'll love this place if you prefer wooded golf.
