Don't Hate 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 25, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

It's relatively easy. It's relatively short. There's a pool at the bottom of the hill. You won't lose a disc here. Play one-disc with a Buzzz or Roc or Skeeter, etc.

Cons:

The markers are getting harder and harder to locate. #8's marker has disappeared under the grass. $1 to play for visitors doesn't seem to be used on the course.

Other Thoughts:

Nobody is going to come LOOKING for this course. There are others to play and Kannapolis Rec Park closes at 7pm anyway. This is a decent short course for those who are going to be at the pool anyway.
Hole 1: Straight forward. Practice your long putt.
Hole 2: Some trees to avoid (possibly volleyball players too) and don't go long into the nasty pond.
Hole 3: One of the toughest easy holes in DG. Want to go to the right of the trees and up the hill but there's almost ALWAYS a breeze coming downhill knocking your hyzer to the ground.
Hole 4: Another tree in the way. Jungle on the left.
Hole 5: Up hill (into that breeze again) but nothing in the way.
Hole 6: Almost identical to 5 except for large tree near basket (beware yellow jackets in ground occasionally)
Hole 7: Down hill to basket on edge of ridge--not hard to overthrow
Hole 8: Favorite hole--nice downhill open hole--tree to get around at basket
Hole 9: Up and over a hill between trees to basket.
NONE of them are technical or long. But the course is unfairly compared to other courses in the Charlotte Metro area. If you want Nevin or Renny, go there. Don't expect it from a nice little private course that gives you a reason to get in the pool.
