very challenging 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 25, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Innova pro 28 baskets2 concrete tees per holeNice tee info signsLots of elevation changeGood use of terrain in parkNeed good control shots Most of course well shaded except for a few of last holes

Cons:

Concrete tees are not level..sometimes sloping downhill ,but still decentDeath putts everywhere... Could get very frustratingNeed a fewTee direction signs between tees.. But download map helpsHole 11 especially but whole course has a lot of potential contact possibility with other park users.. Trails and picnic areas well used and course constantly crosses

Other Thoughts:

Challenging courseEven well placed throws can be in some rough liesLots of thornsA lot of tight lines/narrow gapsI would not consider beginner friendly...front 9 too technical for newbies with harsh rough pennalties... Back 9 has way too much contact with park users and almost every hole a death putt with crazy rollaway potential.All said, as a decent control player ended with a +11 ... With lots of tree contact and a few death putt rollaways... I enjoyed the challenge ...would play again

Fun Park Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 3, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

9 challenging holes, 9 easy holes. Something for everyone.
Pretty easy to navigate, if you pay attention.
Good variety of shots required.

Cons:

Had a hard time finding the first tee from where I parked. Also not much parking close to the course (park by the swimming pool).

Other Thoughts:

If I were laying this course out, I'd have the two nine-hole loops flipped - you'd start with 10 and finish with 9. 10-18 is the easy, family-friendly loop, and makes a great warm-up. 1-9 is tougher, with more elevation and longer holes. 10 is also closer to parking ;)

I ran into a few dog walkers and some joggers while I was there (and the dog walkers were ON the course, not any trails or paths), but for the most part I had the course to myself on a beautiful Friday morning. Had a great time, and will definitely play here again when I get the chance - but I'll start with hole 10, and THEN play my 18.
