Haikey Creek 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 5, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Well groomed challenging course with multiple pin placements on several holes. If you have a big arm it will work to your advantage on this course. But several of the holes are shorter more technical shots in some pretty dense trees. You pretty much can't lose your disc on this course.

Cons:

A couple of the holes have the shorter tee pads - not really a big deal for most people. This course doesn't drain well in some places. No elevation change. No water obstacles. Some of the pars are kind of odd - I just play them as threes anyway.

Other Thoughts:

This is a pretty well designed course. It probably doesn't cater to beginner players as it is a long course for the most part.

Fun and reasonably challenging course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 28, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

Good variety of holes with some longer holes, including some that aren't wide open and require some precision, a few holes with dense trees that require a decent hyzer shot, and some other shorter ones that require a lot of precision.

This course is playable by people of all skill levels. There are several shots that require enough precision to keep skilled players interested, and enough more open areas for less experienced players.

It's pretty hard to lose a disc out there unless you throw a really errant shot out of bounds.

Not much pedestrian traffic on the course as the rest of the recreation area is a decent distance away.

Cons:

Some of the tee pad signs are missing and it's there are a couple spots where several holes converge or you have to cross a road so it's a little confusing where the next tee box is. I would have had to wander a few times if not for having the aerial map available on my phone.

No elevation change and no water that really comes into play or other obstacles except trees. A creek does wind through the park but does not impact many, if any, shots.

Some of the par rankings are odd. Neither par 5 should be more than a 4, and a couple of the par 4s should be 3, but you can adjust your score as you see fit.

Other Thoughts:

This is a fun course that is playable for anyone and still challenging enough to keep skilled players interested. I will definitely go back again when I'm in the area.

Great diversity!!! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 21, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course had a wide range of holes. A couple holes were pretty long (around 600ft) while most were around the 400 ft range. Some of the holes were open with few trees while some of them had many trees on the fairway. A really nice mix of challenging shots. This is a really beautiful park, not a lot of pedestrians to watch out for because the playground equipment is quite a ways from the course.

Cons:

Some of the signs were faded and somewhat difficult to follow. I couldn't find one of the holes but a local showed me where it was. This may have been my own error in reading the sign.

Pros:

Concrete tee pads. Challenging shots required. Great signs.

Can be crowded, stays wet for a while. Things get real muddy at one point. Poison ivy is an issue time to time.
