This course starts by the north end of the parking lot of the ELEMENTARY school not the middle school first off. The baskets are all Mach 3's that are all still in surprisingly good shape for being permanent. The flow is very easy for the first 6 holes at least. The course will never, and I mean NEVER be busy when playable. Which is not during school hours. This is an excellent course to learn the game for younger players which is always a plus. Plus if I lived here I'd be happy to have this here. There is some elevation and some woods. The distances aren't crazy long for anyone on this site but are actually very challenging for little kids (maybe a bit much so). This also seems like it'd be pretty windy with the open farmland around here adding to the challenge.

It is a bit tricky to find the final 3 holes I will admit. Basically all you have to do is walk west across the street from the north parking lot of the elementary school and you'll see a post and 4'x4' marker between the woods to your left and the baseball diamond to your right. The next 2 play in the woods back towards the road. Just not well marked for first timers. The signs are long gone and only a handful of post even remain on the first six.

This course is better than a lot of school courses I've played. There's nothing more annoying to me than people complaining about navigation issues in reviews but then NOT helping others out with them in the review. I get that not too many people are actually going to play here. But I did and it would have been amazing to know where hole 7 was. That can make peoples experiences better at certain courses. I don't recommend going anywhere out of your way to play this but if you're nearby it is a pretty quick round.

1) Boards in the ground mark the tees although a few of them were not found by me.

2) Mach baskets with the number plates facing the tee . . . nice work!

3) Benches were available along the upper ridge on the first few holes.

4) Good variety of where you get the challenge on this course. First three holes present elevation change and wind. Holes 4-6 are all fairly short flat and open and this is where you need to get your birdies. Then holes 7-9 present you with dense woods to navigate.

5) Hole distances are varied somewhat creating different holes with distance variation.

6) Turf is in good condition in most spots.

7) Course seems to be free of garbage.

8)

1) Signs are missing or destroyed in most places, boards in the ground are very tough to find in spots,

2) Navigation from 6-7 is not intuitive at all and there is no sign.

3) Not enough challenge on this course to bring me back often.

4) Hole #8 and 9 needs some serious cleaning to make the hole "realistic". If this happens the course will be much better.

5) Grass tees in the open areas and dirt in the woods.

This course is jekyll and hyde because the first 3 holes are nearly wide open and use elevation as about the only interest. Holes 4-6 are flat and wide open, and Holes 7-9 include the only trees on the course, but Holes 8 and 9 seem to just be too tight to be a really good holes. Some underbrush needs to be removed to have a "realistic fairway", but overall there is a balance that makes this course playable.
