Not bad, not great 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 5, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

Quick little course if you have an hour or so to kill. Has a few holes you can air it out, but mostly technical, controlled shots here. Not crowded at all with the general public. Even with the lack of trash cans it was mostly clean. Good use of what elevation changes were available. Hole 1 starts out nicely.

Cons:

Lack of tee signs, distances (some distances are written on yellow posts in sharpie) and pads - has 5 or 6 concrete pads from the original 9 hole course it used to be. Difficult to navigate....you see 3 tee markers from basket 3, but none of those are for hole 4 (it's across the road by a guy wire and throws down the hill).

Other Thoughts:

It was freshly mowed and that helped a little in the navigation. Was recently converted to 18 holes from 9 (sign at hole 1 still says 9 holes). Most of the shots are the same....225-275 ft dogleg left (I used my Drone ALOT) either up or down hill. Even the open holes fade to the left making it very friendly for RHBH with a stable disc (1 and 13 being the exception...very straight to slight anny needed). Would probably give it a 2.5 or 3 when the pads and signs are in.
