Storm Damaged! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Feb 25, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is a GREAT par three course. Nearly every hole is reachable in one shot but it is laid out well enough that scoring well on this course seems MUCH more difficult than it should be. The course utilizes mature trees, elevation, park roads, ball parks, and will soon be adding sand traps and an elevated baskets. The park workers are AMAZING this park (under normal circumstances) is normally in pristine condition. Beautiful rolling hills, giant oaks, and blooming dogwoods are abundant. There is usually more than one route equally available on every hole here. There are not many holes where you are FORCED to use a particular route to the pin (which could be a negative thing for some).

Cons:

This course was destroyed by a tornado in February of 2008. The damage was SO extensive that they are still (as of March 2009) working to get the course back to normal. Two baskets (#5 and #13) are still missing from the tornado along with MOST of the tee signs. Our goal is to have this course back in tip top condition before June of 2009. This tornado has inspired us to make the course even BETTER than it was before.

Other Thoughts:

We're whipping Meade-O back into shape! I'll expect some MUCH better reviews when she's finished!

Fun and Well Maintained 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jan 17, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

Well maintained course. The local club is phenomenal. The Annual Brandenburg Open is played here and is a well run tournament.

Cons:

The hole that involves a throw over a small pond is fun, but when I played it last, it was a nasty, algae covered body of water. I don't know how it could be done, but if it were cleaned up, it would be a lot nicer, aesthetically speaking.

Other Thoughts:

If you get a chance to play in a tourney on this course or one run by the local club, do it. They're a great bunch of guys and do a good job of making out-of-towners feel welcome.
