Great piece of property... Poor design 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 17, 2015 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

This course is located on the grounds of beautiful Lindsay Park. This facility is home to two of my very favorite courses in Texas with Cedar and Hickory being wonderful and varied. This course has great signage, teepads and some beautiful forests to play through. For being so deep in the woods it is well kept and you can tell the club puts alot of time into it.

Cons:

For all the things going for it, there are double those wrong with it. The idea of a fairway is thrown out the window on this course. The natural flight of a disc is completely disregarded and landing zones are paltry and mis-placed. This is a classic example of more trees equals better course, which is so wrong and so bad for our sport. What makes me even sadder is people really believe this is a "hard" course. It's not hard it is poorly designed, it is an "equalizer" course where players of all skill levels can shoot similar scores because skill has very little to do with how you do out here. I want to make this clear, I respect and admire the work done out here and the place has potential but in its current state it has a long way to go before being called a "destination course".

Other Thoughts:

I've played this place twice in tournaments and both times I was astounded by how poorly this place is designed. Play Red and Blue if you go there, you will have a blast and don't waste your time on "Gold" it's much closer to Tin.
