Pros:
A good "second level" course for beginners, meaning there's a decent variety of elevation/terrain. Good mix of open and tree-lined fairways. Nothing over 300+ feet (except hole 8, a challenging but cool tree-corridor shot).
Cons:
Some holes make very good use of the terrain (2 through 4 in particular). Others, however, get squeezed out to dry. Hole 5 -- the lone "water hazard" hole -- is a 150 ft. joke that even beginners will snicker at. Hole 7 -- which forces you to use the am tee because the long shot goes through a playground -- also needs reworking. Not much love for left-handed or forehand throwers, except for holes 6 and 9. Tee pads are just spots of dirt.
Other Thoughts:
Silverview may be a short round, but it definitely offers something to players of all skill levels. By virtue of proximity, I play here more than any other course. To many of my experienced friends, it's a good warm-up before a game at Acorn or Blue Ribbon. But to a beginner, it's a good introduction to dealing with elevation, trees and making smart decisions.
Hole(s) of note: 3 (Open, blind shot up a hill. Pin sits in a weird position near the top. Bad decisions can lead to a disc rolling 20-50 feet away. I won't even talk about windy days).
FYI: An unhealthy mixture of a-hole kids (I grew up here. Believe me, I'm not generalizing) and throwers who refuse to clean-up butts/beer cans/etc. have led to a greater presence of MV cops during peak hours. There's a suitable number of garbage cans around, so please don't litter.
UPDATE: Though it's still the same course, it's starting to fall into serious disrepair.
