Decent church course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 5, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Killer Veteran baskets
Decent use of the land and few tree lines

Cons:

Hole 1 next to the building,
2 holes too close to property lines
2 holes next to roads
Walks between holes 3/4 and 8/9 were on the long side.

Other Thoughts:

There is not much to work with, but the course does try to use all the interesting areas of the property.

Hole 1 was just too close to the building for me, I felt uncomfortable throwing my first shot of the day next to a building.
Hole 2 was around the building throwing to a fence line with the basket under a tree.
Hole 3 is a longer turnover shot down a tree line.
Thanks to a direction sign, was able to find the tee for hole 4, it is a little bit of a walk and is a throw though a few cedar trees with another tree line behind the basket.
Hole 5 is the longest hole on the course, tree line on the right and fairway for hole 3 on the left.
Hole 6 is my favorite hole on the course. Throwing from under the tree's in the tree line, up over a flood water retention pond area to a nice flat green area with a tree line behind the basket. I would mark the bowl of the retention pond as OB to make this hole fun.
Hole 7's fairway is down a row of smaller tree's. The most open shot is a big turnover (left to right) and there is a tight right to left shot. However there is a house with a fence that comes into play on this hole.
Hole 8 is suppose to be a hard left to right shot. I didn't see a mando and the tempting shot is to throw directly at the basket over the road. The basket is pretty close to the road too.
Hole 9 also uses the road as a hazard. almost 300ft hole with road on the left near the basket, a parking lot just past the basket and if you turn it over, the church could come into play.

In general, this is a decent church course. A few of the holes might be a little tough for beginners, but it is not too hard or too easy for a more seasoned player.

Would I play here again? Well, only if I lived nearby and wanted to get some practice in. This is not a course I would drive to play as it is a shorter pitch and putt course. But with that said, it is a course on church property, it SHOULD be a pitch and putt course for the youth of the church. Good course to introduce new players to the game.
