Big Fun For Big Arms!! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 28, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

* The course is located in a beautiful setting.
* Creeks and fences are used to delineate OB that is interesting, understandable, and fair.
* The land has interesting contours and this topography is used well.
* Even though at least half of the throws are in cow pastures, it never felt like field practice - every hole had some twist which made it interesting and fun.
* Distance drivers get a good work out on this course.
* Nicely executed natural tee areas.
* The wooded holes were well thought out - and still long.


Cons:

* Temporary course - this course felt much more ephemeral than the Red Apple course (also on site).
* The wooded holes were not as well-groomed as the Red Apple course, but better groomed than many parks I have played.
* I think # 15's tee area might be too close to the #14 basket.
* As temporary course, you do not get amenities like benches.

Other Thoughts:

This is a very fun and well thought out course. It does not suffer from the boring 'long hole in a field' syndrome. I really enjoyed hole 16, which requires a long, placed drive to set up a throw over a small pond to the basket. The hole offered challenge, but was not mean.
This course would be rated much higher if it were permanent and had all the bells and whistles it deserves.
