Very nice middle school course 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jul 3, 2015 Played the course:once

Pros:

The course plays 1 through 9 baskets then backwards as 10 through 18. This is great in my opinion for making more with less. As long as it's not busy. The baskets are Mach 3's which are still in great shape and catch very nicely. The signage is top notch. This is a very well marked course. Navigation here was a breeze. There's numerous next hole signs and the signs themselves were some of nicest I've seen. They're basic for sure but all you need to know at a school course like this. The tees are natural but are, again, perfectly fine for a course like this. There's a good mix of wooded, totally open, and slightly wooded holes. Some of the best I've ever seen at a school course. Keep in mind this is a school course, but the mix of shots here is better than many park and even pay to play courses I've played. This course requires a number of different shots and/or arm angle releases to score well. There's some rough to contend with but nothing too major, enough to want to stay on the fairway though. The course is up year round and would be fun in any season. Keep in mind though this is not playable during school hours (I know this since I tried last fall). They have beautiful scorecards with course maps on them at hole 1 which is awesome. These are accurate and help in spots for sure.

Cons:

The fact that it's on a school campus means you can't play it whenever you want. This doesn't detract from the course itself, just the playability of it. The fact that it plays back on itself poses some, like 9, safety risks would be a con. I doubt it's ever busy outside of gym class but not the safest design I've seen by far.

Other Thoughts:

This is a really nice course. Don't let the school course tag fool you. This is a really solid course that's designed nicely. Only really playable in the summer months I'd assume. Not worth a trip out of your way but if its june, july or august and you got time to kill you can certainly do worse in the area. (hello Winchester). For what it is, a middle school course, it's top notch, and for people on this site, a pretty fun ace run stop before you hit up one of the better courses nearby. We had a really fun round here. It's nothing major, but this is just a really well designed course for what it is. I liked it more than I thought I would.
