The Course for Walkers

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 14, 2023 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Multiple par 4's and a par 5 in a town with few long courses.
Impeccable upkeep.
Brand new baskets. The former Prodigy baskets were swapped out for new baskets recently. I drove by the course but I didn't see the brand of the new baskets.
Good tee signs, and excellent concrete tee pads

Cons:

Very few obstacles on most holes. The main things to avoid here are O.B. and headwind putts.
Very little elevation change.
Most of the par 3's are in the mid 200' range, and very forgettable.
There are four holes in the 'just out of my reach' range, holes 7, 9, 13, 14 (440-550'). These holes are never much fun for me to play.

Hole 10, 245'. The basket is on an approximately 35' island with the surrounding area ob. With a drop zone. The raised island is too small for me as an intermediate player to hit even half the time, and the drop zone putt is too far to run safely if your name is not McBeth.

Other Thoughts:

Tony Walker DGC plays around the ballfields at Michael Buchanan Park. The navigation is pretty straightforward, though there is at least one significant walk between holes. There is a walking path that determines ob on over half of the holes, while the road is the ob line on several others.
Hole 18 ends up back by hole 1, but because the course is one continuous loop, you'd have to skip the middle half of the course to play just nine holes.

In my opinion the best hole on the course is hole 16, the 950' par 5.

If you are in Bowling Green, stay away from this course and opt to play one of the shorter more wooded courses or if you are looking for more distance go to Ephram White.
