Pros:
What I personally like and how this course stacks up in my list of 9 hole courses:
1) Holes with good risk/reward. Fair, but harsh punishment for bad decisions or execution. == C-
(Holes 3 & 5 are somewhat tight but short enough where it is tough to envision real trouble for poor execution. All holes are pretty straightforward and do not take much to figure out.)
2) Holes that have rewarding birdie opportunities for me. I'm a Blue level player (950ish skill) who throws 300' accurately, 360' max. == C-
(2-3 of nine are a length that are rewarding, but none of those are taxing and therefore less than fully rewarding.)
3) More wooded than open - lots of variety of shots required caused by hole shape and topography == D+
(A few holes are slightly interesting by use of terrain. Downhill hole 4 at 273' is my favorite. I found 131' hole 7 uniquely comical in that you have to throw a bushwacking overhand up-n-over to get to the basket that is (was?) in pretty dense underbrush.)
4) Natural beauty (Appalachian beauty preferred) and seclusion. == C-
(This course had a real scruffy feeling to it in parts. It has a nice stream running along side it that adds a nice element, but it does not come into play. You really only notice it when throwing towards it on 4 and when walking along the long 408' hole nine and then on the long walk back to the car.)
5) Bonus points for multi-throw holes with defined landing zones, good risk/reward and multiple options to play them. == NA
