Other Thoughts:
Course plays within the edge of a woods, and in the broad open space, of a very large-n-long hill at the back of a small college campus.
While the course averages 250'/300' from the short/long tees, the majority of this distance comes from open-and-upslope #3, and open-and-downslope #8 - take these two holes out of the equation, and the averages drop to 200'/240', so the course is on the shorter side
For the open holes (3, 7-9), basket-3 is actually located within the treeline, with challenging entry points, number-7 needs a right-turner around at the edge of the treeline, and number-9 has a major elevation drop.
For the wooded holes and their extremely short lengths, you'll need to throw straight or right-turners, and be very accurate, as the throwing lanes can be quite narrow - doing so should yield plenty of birds.
Number-6, from the long tee, was probably the most interesting hole, with it's ~340' length, needing an elongated S-shape around the scattered tree, and the protected basket.
An okay (just a tad closer to 1.5 than 2.0 for me) play/course to add to your collection.
