Good, could be great drive by

Pros:

+Beautiful setting in the Swabian Jura on a steep hillside that drops into what was once a man-made lake. In the fall, the colors are out of this world.

+Terrific fun watching your disc sail forever on downhill and hillside shots. Holes 1, 5, 6, 7, and 10 are particularly fun for me (hole 2 as well).

+Round starts strong with all of the first 10 holes being slightly- to well-above-average in terms of fun and challenge.

+Good signage and baskets. Most tees are fine, with a few exceptions.

Cons:

-I wish I had played this before the trees around holes 9-12 all got chopped down. 11 and 12 in particular got massively downgraded when that happened.

-Function of where it is located and where the parking lot is, but all of the very steep uphill holes are in the back 8 (when you're already tired), and some of those holes feel very filler-y, especially 11, 14, and 15.

-A lot of tee pads are too small for the throws required. In particular hole 10. Hole 9's tee is very dubious.

-Similar to a lot of courses in Germany, this place has the space and terrain to make a KILLER par 63 or so course that would easily be 4.5-rated. Too bad they left potential on the table.

Other Thoughts:

Be prepared for a workout. Pack water. Watch for stinging nettles, particularly around hole 4's basket.

The baskets on 6, 14, and 15 get pulled in the winter, so it is only 15 holes during that time.

Massive rollaway potential on many holes. Prepare yourself.

Pros:

Its in a beautiful valley in the Albs. There is a lot of height changes. The pictures are not enough of an experience, if you are in southern Germany you must play this course. Also wear comfortable shoes I ended up with a couple of blisters.

Cons:

The only problem I had with this course was the tee pads were not big enough.
