No two holes play the same way
Tight but fair lines. Definitely forces you to be creative and keep your shots on line.
Challenging greens-
Good use of elevation, both extreme uphill and downhill
Awesome outdoors, you likely will be the only group on the course.

Without a guide, it may be tough to find the teepads, although most of the baskets were fairly easy to find.
Watch for poison oak, particularly hole 18. It got me bad!!!
If the trails are wet, footing can be an issue.

Got the chance to play with the designer, Tom Johnson. Fantastic vision went into this course, and above average design. Having both the front and back nine end at the parking lot is always a huge positive.Hole 18 is an EXTREME downhill shot, make sure to throw a couple because the hike down will wear you out! Front nine plays on more flat terrain and there is some birdie opportunities. The back nine plays up the hills and incorporates elevation on most shots. Thanks for the hard work Tom, this is must play if you are in the Redding area!

Thanks for checking out the reviews. When we started building this course, the vision was to eliminate overhand opportunities, and to have a good mix of non-biased holes. The new course record is -9, so it can be scored on. The front nine is easy to walk and circles back to the parking lot. Good time to refuel. There are 7 new concrete tee pads on the lower part of the course (1,2,3,4,8,9 &12) There are also five new alternate locations on 1,2,8,9,12. The course is a slow growing evolution, so bear with us as we chip away at it's growth. Have fun on hole 18, the course's namesake, Miner's Point. Top of the world shot.

The biggest complaints that I hear are tee signs and poison oak. Tee signs are in the works at this moment, and there is a course map on the backside of the kiosk by hole 1. Take a picture with your phone. We are always working to eliminate poison oak, so just know what it looks like and avoid it. The back nine is not an easy hike, so leave your pull cart in your car after hole 9, and bring water.

Thanks to CalFire for bringing crews into work on the course. Over 60 days of crews of ten plus people have crushed work on the course. Thanks to Gregg Barsby for input on the alternate basket location and course features.

The annual 299 Shootout is fundraising tournament that benefits the completion of the course. This year it will be on August 26th, 2017. Thanks again for reading up on Miner's Point DGC. Hope you enjoy it.
