Quentin Quail's Quality Course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 6, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

This is a neat little course on the grounds of Quail Run Elementary School. Unlike some school courses, this course isn't wide open and without obstacles. Design elements include: a couple defined lines through the trees, a guardian tree or two, and a basket behind an embankment. Navigation is easy throughout the course. There are dual tees, and both are marked with numbered wooden posts. The baskets only have a single row of chains, but were in good shape, nonetheless. I believe the grass is mowed regularly. The course begins near the parking lot and ends near the other end of it.

Cons:

There were a couple small branches that could stand to be taken down, and some weed-whacking on hole 6 wouldn't hurt, either (granted I played last summer, so this may have happened by now). A big, loud dog in a (fenced-in) backyard which borders the course/school-property (near the transition from 3 to 4, I think) may be frightening for some younger elementary students. Hole 6 tees off right behind a sidewalk and another hole comes near an old baseball diamond (other than that, there's little in regards to safety concerns).

Other Thoughts:

Obviously, this course is on school grounds, so DON'T play during school hours-only play during the evening, weekend, or summer. The short tees are all shorter than 175 ft and seem like a great fit for the younger elementary kids. The long tees (generally 150-250 ft) are more geared toward the older elementary kids. The tees are all natural. It's only 6 holes (unless you play both tees for 12 holes) and pretty short, so it can be played pretty quickly (maybe even in a recess period by a student?).
