Quiet, lightly played 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 16, 2017 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Short course with trees for complexity on half of the holes.

Cons:

Dirt tees. As other reviewers have mentioned, several of the tee boxes are not clearly marked. Several of the baskets are in very muddy areas even several days after a light rain.

Other Thoughts:

Simple par 27 course.

Only championship level hole in the area 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 26, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Decent course with rewarding shots on several holes
Most of the Tee signs are still in place

Cons:

A few junk holes after some good holes

Other Thoughts:

There was not much to work with on this course

Hole one uses an old road for a nice tunnel shot

Hole 2 is a nice left turnover shot

Hole 3 is the only true championship level hole I have played in the area. The tee is on the other side of the shooting range, you first shot needs to set up your 2nd shot though the tunnel/clearing area going into and across the open field.

Hole 4 was missing a tee sign, but it is into the woods throwing across the creek. Tight shot, make it and you got the bird.

Hole 5 is an even tighter shot down the walking path, nicely cleared out on the left hand side of the basket for those who hyzer out.

Hole 6 is a short little hyzer shot with a small opening to reach the basket.

Hole 7 and 8 are kind of a joke holes, short and basically must get birdies.

Hole #9 is a decent hole, but is too short to be a true par 4 and too long to be a true par 3. Trees make you throw low and the hole is slightly up hill making it a hard shot to clear.

Fun if you're in the Area 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 8, 2003 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Nice course layout with good use of the available land. Many different routes available on most holes. Thick shule makes accuracy paramount.

Cons:

Long drive from anything in the B/CS area. Couple of holes in the woods are very short and lacking originality.

Other Thoughts:

Nice change of pace from Research and Camelot (which has since been removed- what a shame). Controlled players with a bit of distance will score well.
