Pros:
Foxlands is Jeff Fox's private course. He's the designer and caretaker of the whole thing and you can tell the love he puts into it. There's all kinds of unique little details throughout the course. It's hard not to admire the work put into this course while playing it.
The baskets are a mix of different portable models. Innova, Axiom and MVP are all used here if I remember correctly. These all caught well enough and are all mounted nicely. There's one pin placement on all the holes. Though there's always the option to switch things around if wanted. There's a few elevated baskets too which adds a little bit more challenge.
Natural tees. All are pretty large and framed in by downed branches that were cleaned up from the surrounding woods. These are level and a few even had nice wooden frames on the front end of them. There's also stumps and benches behind the tee on almost every hole.
Really nice design here. Especially for a first time designer. The course plays on the shorter side for sure, but the lines are tight and require accuracy to shoot well. Missing your line can get you into some tough spots. Most of the holes have a couple different options possible off the tee.
There's some minor elevation in play here, though it's nothing crazy, it's utilized well. There's a creek that meanders through the course, a small pond and a few holes where the ravine can come into play.
There's tee signs on almost all of the holes. It appeared like holes 11 and 12 may have recently been redesigned, therefore they didn't have signs yet. 15 was the only other that didn't I believe. Those holes all just had a small 4x4 post with some large address numbers attached. The signs at the other holes are well done. Basic hole map, rec. and adv. par, distance, next tee arrow as well as a description of the hole and any hazards present. On top of that every hole has a unique name.
You need to set up an appointment to play here. Jeff doesn't charge to play, but you should throw him $5 at least to help with course upkeep. That being the case, the course should never be too busy if there's even anyone else out there.
Cons:
If you're not a fan of natural tees you'll not like what's set up here. I personally don't care one way or the other, but some people do. It's a backyard course though.
Some of the tee signs didn't quite match up to where the basket actually was. This was mildly annoying. I ended up throwing it all the way down a ravine on the left where I thought the basket would be. Turns out it was on the right. There were a few others that didn't quite match up.
You'll want to have a map to navigate the course. Most of it's pretty easy, but there are a few longer transitions here that are NOT intuitive.
Other Thoughts:
Awesome backyard course. I loved this one. You can tell how much Jeff cares about this course and that kind of rubs off on you as you play it. Definitely worth a stop if you find yourself nearby. Bonus points for being literally 5 minutes from Boylan Acres.
