Elevation and more elevation

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 29, 2023 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nice new veterans baskets. Restrooms on site. Good variety of distance. Elevation on almost every hole. Tee signs for every hole. Markers pointing to the next hole. Navigation mostly good

Cons:

Only one set of tees and no tee pads. Throwing from used area and rough terrain. Several long walks between holes. Hard to find next tee after 9. some baskets are hard to spot from the tee.

Other Thoughts:

Nice new course in the Birmingham area. The elevation is fairly extreme so if you are not fit it might not be for you. Could really use some tee pads and I'm a big fan of multiple tees which this course does not have. Course plays through a lot of immature pines. Often your line is actually over some of them. I'm concerned how that will affect the course as they mature. It seemed to me they could have had several par 4 or 5s but only one par 4 there.
