This is now a GREAT course drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 19, 2023 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

If you've played this course in the past but not recently you're going to be very happy with it now. If you've never played it, you're in luck, come check it out! I would say Slayter Creek is now "all grown up" and looks like it will be well maintained going forward.

There are tons of new updates, such as all new signage, new tee pads and many new baskets. The improved layout now has all 18 holes. Especially holes 11, 12 and 13 which used to be places where in the past you really didn't know what was supposed to do... are now great holes. The all new 13 is a beauty of a hole, throwing across a drain culvert and up onto a hill.

Just about every hole has two tee pads, blue and red. There are a couple par 4s but everything else is par 3.

Some people say this is a Long course, but I would call it a medium length. It's not as long as Towne Lake but maybe a little longer than McCord. The day I went there were 2 large groups finishing up and they said they had done 2 rounds.

Cons:

After rains, this course will be very muddy. There's areas where the grass will not come in for several seasons, the grounds people have put mats there to prevent erosion.

On the main part of the course, both down and up have tree line and baskets oriented towards the right. So to really do well you'd have to have a good RHFH. But all of these could be played backhand as well, just not catered to those fades... Several other holes are perfect for any throw style, forehand or backhand.

There's going to be poison ivy in the trees in Summer and Fall, but none of the trees stands are very deep, so just take care if a disc gets in there.

Somewhere around hole 5 or 6 there is just one play where the basket location is hard to understand. I just decided to throw at a basket I had already used, and it was easy to make a sensible hole out of it... Don't spend too much time worrying about that one. LOL

Other Thoughts:

As said above, with the recent updates this is now an excellent course you should check out on a nice weather day.

Fun open course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 3, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great open fair ways
2 or 3 paved tees for every hole
Trees play into most holes

Multiple views at baskets

Cons:

Bushes are full of thorns and scratched my arm pretty bad trying to get one of my discs

Course was a little confusing the first time playing. I had to take a picture of the map and refer back to it

No real elevation changes except for a 2 holes

Other Thoughts:

Most holes involve a long drive bomb tee off in which you land on a wide open fairway, followed by an approach shot and putt. The course design keeps it from getting too repetitive.

Like some people said I really wish that there was a "next" sign after every hole.
