canals and poison ivy 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 27, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

-nice tee markers on the natural pads
-signs with distances
-advanced tees marked by large yellow bricks
-makes good use of the canals as obstacles
-bridges across the canal at holes 1 and 6

Cons:

-holes 2, 3, 5, 6, 10 are completely wide open but use the elevation near the canal well to create a challenge
-in the canals on holes 5 & 6 and in the woods on holes 7-9 there is poison ivy everywhere
-the tee on hole 8 is in a really poor location, i like the idea of the split fairway but the tee needs to be at least 30' back to actually be able to attempt those lines
-the advanced tees look pretty difficult to find but they do offer a more challenging look at each basket

Other Thoughts:

This is a pretty cool little course that tries to make the best of what is available. The drop-offs near the edge of the canals make sticking the green and making putts more challenging. The drive on hole 5 is pretty fun, you have to land on a thin, flat strip halfway down the side of the canal.

I like the idea behind the wooded holes but I was really intimidated by all the poison ivy in all of the brush. I laid up in the fairway on all those holes just to be safe. Except for hole 8, I played from the sidewalk slightly behind to the right of the regular tee to have a flight line out toward the green. Hole 10 looks like it stays pretty wet most of the time.

I didn't have time to check out the alternate tees but they look like they make for a more challenging approach to each basket. I suppose it's good for the replay value too. Thanks and good job to EricJ for the redesign. Hopefully the city can address the poison ivy over time.
