emerging course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 20, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

Nestled in a valley just past the runway this course is a nice compliment to the other course in the area with not quite as much altitude issues. The benches at each tee were awesome. Many trails to next tee were marked. The course has a nice variety of shots with good use of terrain.

Cons:

In maximizing the terrain the layout of the course was a bit confusing. The 3rd tee is near the 8th tee so watch carefully. Unfortunately many of the ground signs did not survive the winter. Fairways that had bends in them were not marked. I would have appreciated a tape on the basket to indicate the direction of the next tee box, and fairway flags for the longer holes.

Other Thoughts:

It seems to me that this course is normally very dry. I played the first day of spring and mud was quite the obstacle. Still it was fun to get out and see the course. I look forward to playing it again as it is loved into shape.

Fun walk through the woods 2+ years drive by

Pros:

The biggest pros to this course is the use of trees to force interesting throws. Very few holes had simple straight lines and most of those required hitting a gap. With that said another pro was the fact that while there are lots of trees and bushes to work around the ground was basically clear, meaning it was nearly impossible to lose a disc and if you miss your line you still have a workable second shot. Also it was really easy to find the next tee when you finish a basket. In fact there was a small sign (visible from the previous basked) pointing the way to the next tee and most of them had a lined walk way from the small sign to the next tee. The tee signs were cool in that they were always attached to trees and written on wooden planks they they blended in nicely with the forest. On the tees, they were HUGE. They are natural (dirt and grass) lined with logs a few high on three sides. There was more then enough room to throw and even if one side gets warn down to much, the other side should be fine. The baskets are all marked with numbers giving you a useful check to see if your shooting at the right basket (see cons). Lastly there is a good mixture of thickly treed holes and open holes.

Cons:

There was a portapotty on site but no other amenities. You are definitely walking through a relatively mature pine forest so be prepared for downed stick, twigs, and other debris on the ground. Also there is a lot of dirt and therefore mud if it rains. Lastly there were quite a few holes where the basket was not visible from the tee. While this is a good technique to add challenge to the course it would be hard to play without the map. There were a few holes where we had to look at the map and then throw in a general direction and hope we could see the basket for our second shot. While the tee signs are nice in that they blend into the forest it would be nice if they showed a diagram of the hole.

Other Thoughts:

LONG: I would have put this in the cons but some people may love this. I've been playing for a few years but I'm no always up for a 700+ foot hole. Luckily there was only one of those and a few in the 400-600 feet range, there rest being around 300ish. Definitely not a great course to take beginners or people without strong arms, like the people I was playing with (me included?). There was one car when we got there and one different car when we left. I caught a glimpse of each group once during our round. Other then that we were alone for the whole round.
Another thing I would mention are that the directions to find the course are pretty good but I never saw the sign for the road (thanks GPS). The road to the course is the one with the airport and human society sign.
