Pros:
-No one's mentioning the biggest pro of this course - VERY little wind. Since almost all of the holes are in a basin, the wind is minimal making for extremely fun, consistent putting.
-People are getting pretty good at using the trash cans.
-24 diverse, quality holes (some very long, some short, some have pines, some deciduous, there are open holes, treacherous holes, easy holes, river holes, plains holes, twisting holes, etc).
-Toughest course in the area
-Really nice people!
Cons:
-Skeeters. (Bring OFF in the summer, for sure)
-Errant throws can be hard to find if you don't track well as the rough can get pretty hairy.
Other Thoughts:
HEAR YE, HEAR YE:
This course is now OPEN (all 24 holes) and FREE for the rest of 2015.
Ox Bow is an adventure and a mildly strenuous hike. Bring some water, and have fun!
