Pros:
LOTS of improvements since I played here in May! Pathways, bridges and signage! Nearby FEW and Hickory Run could take a lesson in navigation from Linesville. A number of finished tees. Quite an achievement in such a short time. 9 of the holes and the practice hole have excellent orange mach 5 baskets. They smartly start you off on 3 friendly holes before introducing you to the true nature of this highly technical course. A number of the holes are well thought out and fun, as well as challenging. Played this with my brother and 2 friends this time around. We all have somewhat different throwing styles, but all manged to enjoy much of the course. Strongly favors RHBH, but lefties (me) can still get around.
Covered pavilion and trash cans near the 1st tee. Close to I80 and the PA Pike.
Cons:
Drainage is something of an issue, but they seem to making progress with wooden walkways. 9 holes use the awful innova baskets.
Two short holes (numbers 7 and 17, I think) are pretty much the exact same hole. Alternate pin on one would be a good idea.
Hole 8 has the beginnings of a fairway, but once out 120 ft or so, it just turns into a luck shot. In fact holes 8 and 10, along with a couple of back 9 holes, seem to just be a randomly placed tee and basket. Surprising, considering some of the other well designed holes. 10 is particularly bad; the fairway, what there is of it, slopes sharply to the previous hole. Not safe. Hole 9 needs a bit more definition and the basket it placed in a jumble of rocks and boulders. It looks neat, but will be a nightmare when covered and or slippery.
Practice basket has to be moved, it is in play on number 3 and the long tee for hole 1. Do not know what they were thinking here.
Other Thoughts:
The tireless work done here is admirable. This course, though not yet ready for organized play, will be an excellent addition to the nearby venues. The concerns mentioned need to be addressed but are not intended harshly. They have done amazing work so far. I will surely be back.
