The pros really apply to holes 5-18. The first four are very tight wooded courses, that left me questioning why this course was so highly rated, but more on that later.

What is great about Eagle's Landing (in Little Black Creek Campground and Park), is the terrain. The rolling hills, large levee, and short grass make for some great shots. It's not a state park but it has that feel to it, with the fishing and camping on the lake nearby.

Starting at hole 4, almost every shot is beautiful off the tee. There are some valleys, three downhills from the levee (and no uphill!), some uphill through the woods and back to the course start. The holes are a little lengthy, but not too bad given the elevation, including some nice par 4s.

The tee's are concrete, can be a little narrow on the longer holes, but I wouldn't call them small unless you like a long run up. The baskets are great, and I think always visible from the tee (again, from hole 5 onward).

Some notable holes for me were 9 and 10. Nine is from the top of the levee downhill to a green bordered by thick brush, and a creek long, which you can't see from the tee. The sign says 354, but it plays much less than that. Hole 10 is again from the top of the levee, and is a par 4 all the way to the end of it. But there is a mowed landing zone at the bottom, and mowed path to walk down about halfway to the basket.

The park staff are very nice, as are the other guests I ran into. The course plays heavily along the main road, so you can't miss it, but you're going to get some traffic.

There are two types of holes out here: open (holes 5-18), and TIGHT (holes 1-4). I like wooded courses, but holes 1-4 are just a little ridiculous. I think it's hole 2 or 3 that is somewhat reasonable (meaning you can throw the gap if you have a short late turning anny midrange) (actually hole 2 is just a short dog leg that's easy if you don't hit a tree), but oof, they can be brutal.

After that you don't really get anything too tight, but there are some lightly wooded holes like 6, 11, 12, 16 I think... But for the most part it's a bomb-fest. Huge arms will do well out here. **See notes in Other Thoughts

Many holes play up and down the main road, especially on the way back to the start. I never felt like it mattered that much, maybe because there wasn't a lot of traffic on a Monday evening, but it could be anywhere from annoying, to hazardous depending on your throwing and the popularity of the park that day.

**That being said, I never felt like any holes were repetitive, or that I just had to hurl it as far as I could. There was always some landing zone to hit, a better approach direction, a tree to miss, SOMEthing to influence your throwing.

I really liked this course. I lost 3 discs my first time out (two I threw into woods and just didn't have the time to search before the sun went down), but feel like I could do better on my next trip. I'm by no means going pro soon, but grabbed a few birdies, and still feel like I left some out there that I could've had.

I can understand this course being a 3 rating, because some of it's cons could keep it from being "Very Good." I am giving a 3.5 because of the beauty of the land, the terrain engaged, and the fact that you do get to stretch out your arm a bit. It's not your usual throws (especially for those of us who live on the coast). It's a great course worth checking out!

Beautiful
Well Laid Out
Moderate Difficulty w lots of OB
Great use of terrain and elevation
Fun to Play

Map is hard to follow on some holes
Some holes not well marked (Hole 10)
Heavily favors the right handed hyzer shot

I have to say, we didn't expect to find such a great course here. Its new, so some of the holes were a little hard to find. Also, about hole 13 we became aware there may be different tee positions that weren't documented on a few of the holes. This course was thoroughly fun to play and offered a good degree of difficulty yet still presenting plenty of birdy opportunities. It does cost $3 per person to get in, but it goes to improving the park, so I don't have a problem paying. I really wish I could give a 3.75 disc as it is better than very good. We will definitely be out to play again next year.
