Fun little course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 30, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

Several holes have 2 pin positions
White posts mark tee's with distance to each pin painted on them.
Nice Patriot baskets

Cons:

The levee's are not mowed
Hole 17 throws away from the parking area.

Other Thoughts:

This is a nice complement to the course across the street, TC Jester. Where Jester is a lot of walking and several longer holes, Watonga has several short technical holes and some more open short holes.

This course is not exactly for rec players as 2 of the holes throw over the bayou. But as long as you can throw 200ft, your all good on those holes.
holes 1 to 6 were put in last year in the small wooded area next to the parking lot, these are short technical holes that are fun ace runs. Hole 7 throws over the bayou and then you have some shorter pitch and put type hold with a very interesting hole 11 till you get to hole 12. Another shot across the bayou.

Hole 14 is the longest hole on the course throwing along the levee of the bayou with trees on the right.

An interesting hole when it is in that placement is hole 15, the basket is between two backstops, throw too far left or right, you got an interesting upshot.

The course is numbered weird in that the designer elected to not renumber the original 6 and started the course on hole #0 by the skate park. That means you finish on hole #17.

Would I play here again? Actually, I enjoy courses like this, there are enough tree's to make the shots interesting even though it is a short course. I really enjoyed the holes in the woods, threw most of them with my putter. So yes, I would enjoy another round here someday.
