So i was looking at the top 10 courses on here. Mainly this Flyboy aviation course. it gets alot of 5 disc ratings. I was looking through the pictures and it looks like a killer course. i have a couple issues with this being called "Best of the Best" (5disc rating). as well as several other courses but ill focus on this.
1) Look at the teepads, those are so horribly installed, how can this be the "best of the best" for teepad installation?
2) Where the on course amenities, i see a club house but thats it. no trash cans or benches in any of the pictures. ive seen courses that get 2 discs on here with better amenities.
im not trying to complain, i just want to point out the flaws in peoples comprehension of the rating system. a 5 disc course has EVERYTHING! not just most of it, everything, there is nothing that can be approved upon, afterall it is the best of the best. if i were to go play this flyboy aviation without looking at the pictures and only the rating, i can grantee i would be disappointed when i walked up to the first tee and saw these disgustingly installed rubber pads.
another courses on the top 10 that is lacking is Confier Park. It has wood structure stairs and everything is so nice but dirt teepads? what possible excuse could there be for that? snow removal? then why is there wooden stairs?
no other course on the top 10 is lacking in amenities or teepads like these are. there is far too much "everyone else gave it this so i am" mentality on here. or how did Flip end up so hugely popular, because all of its locals rated it 5, if you look at alot of the non-local reviews you get a far wider variety in rating. yet these reviewers are congradulated for their "follow the leader" attitude. its shameful and disappointing.
i feel better now that its been said.
