Nothing Special Here 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Dec 24, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

1 - Concrete teepads.
2 - Hard to loose a disc.
3 - Extra chains installed on baskets.

Cons:

1 - Two poorly designed holes. A building with windows backs the basket on 8 and you are driving over a parking lot on hole 9.
2 - No dedicated teepad for hole 15. (It is a marked off rectangle on a park pathway).
3 - Some baskets installed backwards and/or missing basket numbers.
4 - Baskets installed too low.
5 - Signage for holes is not really all that helpful or missing.
6 - No map at the beginning of the course to help orient yourself.

Other Thoughts:

Some directional signage between last holes and next teepad would be most helpful for first time players. (I couldn't even find the teepad for hole 6 and totally missed the teepad for 16 until I was at the basket for 17). Back nine repetitive and front nine not that much less repetitive.

Christmas Play 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 22, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course has a variety of shots both short and long. Fairly easy to navigate. Great course to practice and for beginners! I had a first time player with me and he enjoyed the course.

Cons:

There are a few unsafe holes. First, you should never have to tee over a main road, which happens twice, and you should never have to tee off straight over the next tee box. Some of the fairways and baskets were too close to the parking lot of a very popular recreation facility. We were lucky and the rec center was closed for the holidays so traffic was very light. It seemed that a little tweak could alleviate this problem.

Other Thoughts:

It's worth playing, but go early in the day to avoid a crowd! Late in the day could pose a problem due to the rec center and the soccer fields.

Just glad there is one here 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 29, 2011 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Good flow to the course, easy to navigate.
Decent baskets, good signage.
Very clean and well maintained.
Facilities available.

Cons:

Basically wide open,

City roads with relatively high trafic as the back ob of two holes.

Highly used parking lot and interior roads as well as walking paths come into play often.

NO SHADE.

It appears several holes traverse athletic fields, not sure if this is ever an issue but I would think it is.
.

Other Thoughts:

An easy but fun course in an area I am relocating to. Holes 2 and 17 drive straigh at highly used road 50' behind pin, I can see this being an issue.

Hole 18 is by far the best on the course, distance obstruction, elevation change make this a well designed hole.


I will be playing this and other courses in the Springfield area quite often beginning at the end of July, looking for any locals who may want to play or have useful local league knowlege, I can be reached at [email protected], thanks
