Nice course, but needs some work still.... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 25, 2016 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

I like the layout of the holes. Nice use of the woods. The short tees are nice, for the most part, ( I will deal with that more in the "cons" section). The course flows well and gives some challenge.

Cons:

Let me start with hole 3. There is a tree around 3 feet directly in front of the tee pad. That tree needs to be removed as it totally impedes the ability to throw any kind of decent drive off of that tee, whether you are left or right-handed. I ended up teeing off from in front of it, after I hit it 3 times in a row. Poor design in my opinion. Not only do you have that tree, but 2 or 3 others that make getting a drive out of there almost a matter of being fortunate.

The short tee on hole 4 points into the brush on the left, instead of following the flow of the hole. Not sure what happened there.

The long tees are really bad. They are either grass (hole 2) or uneven carpet, which is dangerous at times. On hole 3,4,5,6, the lines you are expected to navigate through from the long tees are almost non-existent, or are filled with trees. A wall of trees is not playable, as you will experience on hole 5. Hole 4's line has a big tree right in the middle of your line, less than 20 feet from the pad, and the gaps you are expected to hit are really small.

I don't mind tight lines. However, some of the shots on this course, you have to get really fortunate not to hit the many trees that are in your way. All it would take would be removing a few trees on a few of the holes, and this course would be a lot more fun to play. This course has a lot of potential. There are definitely some needed changes, though.
