Pros:
Private but open to the public course on master course designer Dan Doyles' property and across the street from his renown Warwick / Brakewell Steel courses. Once fully complete this course will be a real challenge and beauty as well.
18 holes playing through a mixture of mostly open pastures and heavily wooded spaces with a pond and OB areas, cool large rock formations and moderate sweeping elevation. There's a variety of par 3 and 4's with risk/reward that will make you think about placement shots.
Locals play glow every Friday night.
Cons:
Still a work in progress. Some of the tees are a bit rough. Multiple tee signs can be confusing.
Other Thoughts:
Hole 1 is a favorite, plays downhill with two baskets, the long basket has a risky approach shot with the pond behind it. Hole 2 is solid par 4 with OB defining the fairway and the basket protected behind a group of trees. Holes 3-5 I'm guessing will change a bit. Hole 6, 7 and 8 were great. Holes 9-13 are still a work in progress with some nice potential. Hole 14 is sweet downhill hole with multiple baskets. Hole 15 was a favorite playing over the pond and semi-island green. Hole 16, throw a bomb out of the woods into the open with the basket between a bunch of half cut stumps still sticking up 8-10' was interesting and a little spooky looking. Hole 17 is fun, probably has the most elevation change playing downhill with the basket tucked to the right. Hole 18 a great finish with the basket raised on a tree stump and peninsula OB around it making the tee shot likely either a 2 or 4 if you go for the green, or an easy 3 if you layup.
As an out of towner, I can't wait to come back and see this course in a year. Dan was also talking about doing a brewery on the property!
