Damn the Tornado! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Feb 27, 2010 Played the course:once

Pros:

Great use of the land, Lots of hills to deal with making harder shots. Has good parking and easy to get to!

Cons:

It is missing tee signs and baskets still as of 3/27/10, if you toss your disc over the fence it is gone! government property with barbed wire fence! Its right next to the highway, so expect some noise.

Other Thoughts:

I would have loved this course if it was not torn up from the storm. I was a little disappointed, but life is life! The course can still be played but you are going to have to make up the rules and where to throw at times due to the missing tee's and baskets. The hills make for some really interesting shots, you are going to need your control on this one! The tees are just grassy areas, so dont expect anything special. I am looking forward to its repair and playing it through!

Safari Golf 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 15, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course is well maintained, mowed, not crowded. The tee signs (when there) had the DGA maps I see all over, so it felt familiar. A local helped me find a missing tee box at one point. Not a long walk from hole 18 of CF main to CF West 1. Seemed to double back over itself several times like the other 18, but in a much more confined space. Many greens were on a crest of a hill, side of a hill, etc, adding a level difficulty that i liked. Lots of open shots for players of my skill level.

Cons:

I counted 9 baskets, and only 5 tee signs. 2 signs were laying over, and the maps on them made it appear that they'd been moved from their original position. The tee boxes were grass, not well worn either, so without a sign there is really no way to know where the box is supposed to be. This appeared to have been screwed around with, for example we teed off on hole 3, followed the map exactly, found the basket, it's marked 8. Later we find 8's tee sign laid down with no hole in sight. This could have been a result of the storm I heard about that took out a bunch of holes. This side feels way closer to the road than the 18 across the way, had me very nervous.

Other Thoughts:

This course seemed a little cramped into the space it had, I imagine it was very good when it was intact. I honestly don't know if we played the right holes from the right tee boxes, we just decided to have fun and wing it. It's a clean park, there's 27 holes here total, those are both big draws, but you're going to be confused playing this one.
