Only for course baggers 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 3, 2019 Played the course:once

Pros:

new baskets
Some fun holes to throw

Cons:

PRIVATE course, not open to the public
shared fairways, but your probably going to be the only one playing it anyways.
Fairways throwing over parking spots

Other Thoughts:

this course is not bad, but has some major issues. Not sure why, but hole #9 from the red paving stones is crazy, over a parking area with absolutely no fairway to layup.

There is a map so to speak on the UDisc app. That is the only way I found all the tee's I threw from. I assume there is a shorter tee for hole 9 that does not have you throwing over the parked cars, but I didn't find it.

Otherwise, unless you have a really bad throw, your not going to hit any apartments.

Other than hole 9, the rest of the course is a simple pitch and putt course. Hole 6 does have a long tee throwing over the parking lot, but in the picture I posted, that is the "regular tee"

Hole 8 also has two tees I found, one is just longer than the other.

After playing hole 1, hole 2's tee box is behind the basket, the stones were broken and not in place. As you walk to the basket, you will find the tee for hole 4. Basket 3 is just behind basket 2 and basket 4 is just behind basket 3. The tee for hole 3 is between the two apartment buildings, just a hyzer shot around the edge of the wall below the building.

then you walk back up #2 fairway to the tee for hole 4, basicly throwing over baskets 2 and 3.

Hole 5 is a short little anhyzer under the tree limbs. You will see basket 9 on your right as you walk to #5 basket.

hole 6 is up and over the hill following the road. There is a long tee marked at the top of the hill, but you can't see the landing area if any cars are parked. There is a shorter tee below the last parking spot.

Hole 7 tee is past 6 basket throwing back over #6 basket to basket 7.

Then cross the road, you will see two tee marked throwing up the hill along the road.

I was unable to find a short tee for #9, the red paving stones had you throwing over the parking area, blind shot. There is no other route and no good layup spot. I refused to throw that big shot as I didn't want to hit any cars or people walking. I tried to throw on the side of the hill, failed and wound up taking an 8 on this hole.

Would I play here again? Well my answer is a big flat NO, #1 it is a private course, #2 the holes that are not dangerous to throw are easy pitch and putt holes and #3 the only hard holes are extremely dangerous to throw.

I played it, I will not be back.
