Galloway Park 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 9, 2019 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

• Free
• Good mix of open and wooded
• Some true par 4's
• Easy to follow
• Nice big area and park
• Parking right between hole 9 and 1

Cons:

• Some holes are too wooded (3, 4,7) and some are too open (1, 2)
• Woods could be kept better, mowed more often or cleared out more
• Lots of tall weeds that can get your legs eaten up

Other Thoughts:

A decent 9 hole that I think could have been better with the land it was on and with better upkeep and wood clearing. Not a bad course but could be improved. Wildwood springs is another 9 holer about a mile away and is better IMO

Tough lines 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 27, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Some variety, park courses are mostly getting better. Thank you, designers!
Not trashed yet.
Easy to navigate. Good signage.
Holes don't cross over each other or other activity areas.
Porta-john on site.

Cons:

Really new: paths not beaten down, lots of tiny stumps to avoid, planting not finished.
#4 has potential, but could use some adjustment.
No trash cans on course.
I going to put the tees under con for MN. They are ok, probably not finished, but will not be great in winter. Dirt, framed, with a half-length rubber mat. Ought to be full-length mat if nothing else. Maybe concrete is coming.

Other Thoughts:

I shot 30 twice today, guess that's about what a tired, experienced amateur should shoot for as par.

Sign shows a practice basket that doesn't exist yet. It really is brand new.

Holes:
1) putting practice
2,3,9) straight shots around 300'
4) no line out of the woods, and the line depicted on the sign will never be played, it would be a 12' wide (for over 250') massive curving dogleg right. A straighter, better shot is possible and far more likely for any experienced player to try, but still basically luck to hit a window out of the trees
5,6,8) great technical holes in the woods, short
7) RHFH, not much else to try. Not long, but par 4 due to difficult line. Good, tough design.
