Camp Jordan DGC 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 19, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Has concrete tee pads

Has most tee signs

Has a good mix of open and wooded fairways with some doglegs

Has a good variety of pars

Has elevated baskets

Has some mandos throughout

Had the whole course to myself on a Wednesday afternoon

Free parking

Cons:

Tee signs could use some updating

Needs more next tee signs at some baskets

Mostly flat

Lots of mosquitoes at holes #4-6 - definitely wear some repellent before playing

Potential to lose a disc in the water at holes #4, 5, & 12

Walking path can interfere with play

Other Thoughts:

This is a good, challenging course that I played while in the Chattanooga area. This is a huge park so finding it can be challenging as well. I like that the course has some variety in pars, mix of open and wooded fairways, some mandos, and some elevated baskets though the course is mostly flat. The park seems to be popular with other parkgoers so delays are possible when playing near the path. The course navigation can be a little difficult as the posted map reflects the older layout so some next tee signs are necessary at some baskets.

From what I can summarize after the redesign:
1. Hole #7 tee doglegs right to the former location of hole #8 basket
2. New path for hole #8 is created
3. Hole #9 plays to a short island elevated basket (island is currently under construction at the time of this review)
4. Hole #10 is stretched and absorbs former hole #11 - creating a one hole offset for holes #12-19...which are now #11-18
5. Hole #17 is shifted towards the parking lot where its sunken basket is just across the road where a skip putt off the road is possible
6. Down the road from #17 basket is hole #18 tee with the two road signs serving as a double mando

It's an interesting layout that I recommend checking out if you're in the area.

Pros:

Some very unique shots and a great mix of power and finesse. Multiple lanes on several holes, which is great for different play styles. Great T boxes.

Cons:

Very flat. A couple very straight holes that lack any challenge. Once the markers and everything are put up its going to be a lot less confusing. Not particularly challenging on most holes.

Other Thoughts:

Great course for intermediate player. The power holes are great for practicing long distance drives.
