Call it Plinko Brook drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Oct 24, 2022 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Incredibly scenic course. The intangibles are great: beautiful trees, a few creeks through the course, and all around a perfect place to be outside.

Cons:

As beautiful as this course is, the design fairly one-dimensional. You just need to replicate a couple of shots on virtually every hole. It feels very repetitive even when the scenery changes.

Hole 1 may be the worst starting hole I've ever seen. Not a fun shot with a high chance of tree kicks or roll aways while not a lot of scoring separation. I think every hole on the course could be better with just 1-2 trees removed. Many of the shots are hit-your-gap-then-pray and those late trees surrounding the basket make or break your shot.

I play this course because it's the closest to me, not because it's great. All the love to the crew who put the effort into this course though.

Other Thoughts:

Hole 3, 7, and 18 are all fun holes but leave me wanting just a bit more. The entire course is so close to being great, but so far away at the same time.

Pros:

The tee boxes are very nice
Nice layout - good use of the natural features
Long and Short Pads offer a good variety

Cons:

Only 9 holes
Too far from my house for regular play

Other Thoughts:

Keene DGC has done a fine job. Lots of potential and will need to get back after the other 9 pins are in the ground.
I am always a fan of alternate pin locations for erosion control and more variety.

Lovely course in woods 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 27, 2013 Played the course:once

Pros:

Trees, terrain, rather difficult. After 9 holes I was tired.

Cons:

Its steep in some areas, and we played in the snow, so if you are not sure-footed you might want to wait until spring. Otherwise we loved it.

Other Thoughts:

The course is rather challenging for how short it is. Loved the technical tree holes, the elevation gain/loss for each hole, and the overall lovely-ness of the area.
