Redesigned 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 22, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

+Innova Pro 28 Discatcher baskets in good condition
+Decent amount of shade
+Little bit of elevation change here and there
+Challenging; not easy to shoot low scores at all
+Concrete tee pads
+17&18 are good finishing holes: 17 is about 170 feet over a pond to a tiny green and 18 is a long right-turning hole with OB road on the left

Cons:

-course map posted on this website is outdated
-course map posted at the course is outdated
-navigation is extremely difficult & with no good map is very frustrating
-tee signs have only numbers, no distance and no picture to guide throwers on the multiple blind holes
-several holes border on impossible to birdie due to shape of the fairway

Other Thoughts:

Not sure when this course was re-designed, but the map posted here and at the course is outdated. There are no longer any of the nice signs pictured on this website either. Good luck even finding hole 1! If you do manage to find the outdated course map, then look for hole 1's tee a couple hundred feet to the left of it---in the woods, somewhere, with no signage to point you there and no obvious path either. So many blind holes on this course really make it tough. Not beginner-friendly. I consider myself a pretty good course navigator but this one had me lost many times. Several holes have angles that are just about impossible to hit, or force you to lay up only 75 feet or so off the tee to get a decent look at the pin.
