Other Thoughts:
Pilot Mound DGC plays in the small central Iowa town of Pilot Mound (Pop approx 168). A one square block park at the south end of town provides many trees to work around on this 5 hole course. You can work multiple lines on most holes with an edge of trees along the right of #2 and the street along the right of #5. A minor concern is the playground plopped in the middle of the #4 fairway. If there are patrons at the playground, this may provide an issue, but it is a quiet town and I saw no one else in the park for my 2 rounds. As mentioned before, there is a lone gas station in this little town, so have some in the tank before you arrive (there are a few options within 15-20 miles). I enjoyed my quiet rounds, but the location would prevent a return trip unless I'm hitting other courses in the area.
