Pros:

Good selection of holes. Decent flow.
We have labeled the course as Jekyl & Hyde.
The front 9 and back 9 are different. After the long first hole the other holes on the front are fairly tight, technical and not overly long.
The back 9 is quite a bit more open and has much longer holes (up to 550 I think).
The space has been used quite well but there may be some modifications to it yet.
In comparison to other Calgary courses this course does require trying new shots and a full arsenal (BH, FH, OH, and roller) would be helpful to score as best as possible.
The course probably favors RH over LH but not dramatically so.

Cons:

No signage or tee boxes yet.
Some holes could be improved with different tee box placement.
Still needs some more benches/sitting areas. Garbage cans could be added.
The course really plays as Par 3 and there are no supremely difficult holes where you must work and place in order to get par.

Other Thoughts:

It was a fight to get this course in. Victory.
We will improve it in the spring with good signage and concrete tee boxes.
It's a step in the right direction.
