Makes me not want to play 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:May 18, 2008 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

It's a course, some good difficult holes, new layout makes it slightly more challenging

Cons:

The PEOPLE! (I haven't finished a full round since I moved here two years ago), the bugs, some holes are just absurdly long, 500+ ft of nothing but open field is pointless, that's when you can play it because people are playing soccer in the open field or kids are trying to play on the tee because it's the only hill in south LA.
*UPDATE* BTW if you throw a disc in the water expect to get a call at 2 am from some stoners who dredged the water for your disc and want you to provide pot to them to get your disc back. 2 years after throwing my first Wraith away I got woken up to find out they found it and had to tell them I didn't want it back because I wouldn't "pack the bowl".

Other Thoughts:

Why would you have 24 holes if you can't even play 18 of them because it crosses multiple soccer fields and picnic areas. The beginning of the course is promising but after the 8th hole it becomes the worst course I've ever played. I have dropped off from 3+ rounds a week when I lived in MD to once a month if I'm lucky because I hate playing the only course within an hour of me. And when ever I run into the guys who got it up and running they always try to make it sound like it's so wonderful and on par with any other course, they need to stop dreaming and step back into reality this is just a poor course
