New Market DGC 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 28, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Buckets by some pins for trash
-Baskets are in good condition
-Low traffic (none when I played)

Cons:

-No tee pads

-Terrible course maintenance. You can tell someone mows but the baskets are often full of overgrown weeds and thorns. Hole 10's basket was more plant than metal.

-Navigation is hard. The stakes in the ground that mark tee areas don't have numbers on them. I couldn't find the stake for hole 8

-Hole 8 would be fun if the fairway wasn't 4 feet wide (no exaggeration). It's just thick grass that is waist high and the pond. Basically you need to park it 300+ feet away or you'll be searching for awhile

-The thick grass which borders all fairways is THICK. Saw a few critters in the grass when I was looking for discs

-Some holes require backtracking to get to the next hole. Would be a hazard if there was more traffic

-Walked out of the tall grass with itchy legs and I'm sure there are ticks everywhere in there

-"Bridges" over damp areas are falling apart. It looks like pallets covered in a rug but I fell through in a couple spots where the wood was broken into mud/puddles

Other Thoughts:

It was a challenging course, but the lack of maintenance and signage and the thick grass just made it frustrating. I loved hole 1 but it quickly went downhill. I honestly cannot see any reason I would return here. The course needs a major facelift
