A Lot of Potential Here 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Apr 30, 2016 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

-Nice piece of land, designers put the land to good use
-Can use all of your discs here
-Some really fun shots on this course
-Some interesting technical shots here as well as some open bombers
-A few holes here are some of the most fun I have ever played before
-Nice baskets
-Course flow is mostly solid

Cons:

-Very rough course at the moment, still too many trees that have yet to be cut and small tree stumps scattered on the ground on the back nine
-No tee pads, though I heard that they are to be installed soon
-Tee signs would help with the course flow
-The design of some of the holes just baffle me. A few that are just frustrating and not fun to play in my opinion. Hole 3 comes to mind immediately
-Not the fault of the designers, but just no elevation change here
-The amount of trees and brush here are certain to eat up some discs, especially during the summer and fall

Other Thoughts:

I really feel that this course has a lot of potential and it could be a destination type of course within a few years. However, this is a very new course and it is extremely rough around the edges at the moment. There are still some trees that need to be removed, and a bit more general maintenance of the course would be helpful. With that said, there are some extremely fun shots here that make me want to come back for more. A lot of potential here, but it may take a bit more time to realize it.
