Pros:
Course is located not too far from the NJ shore, but unfortunately there's not much nice to say about this course. Fairways are fairly tight on a lot of holes, but still very parable.
- Would make a nice pitch-and-putt, I guess.
Cons:
- Pars are out of whack. No hole, IMO, should be above a par 3.
- Baskets are homemade and completely wrecked/smashed/falling apart. The bottom of the entrapment devices are lined with this weird elastic, so I had two putts literally bounce out of the basket.
- Fairways cross on some holes, but it looks like the park wasn't utilized by people much.
- Despite some signs, navigation is really terrible. I never did find a few of the holes despite looking for a pretty long time. I felt like I did ten laps around the park just looking for the first tee.
- No tee pads to speak of and baskets aren't numbered.
- Unless I royally screwed up at finding holes, only 5 baskets remain. I'm guessing that they're deteriorating and removed by the city.
Other Thoughts:
I really try to be forgiving and constructive when I review courses, but it's hard to say much about this course. It's quite simply incomplete in the number of holes it has; navigation is a bear; and the baskets are just not engineered to last or catch discs very well. People who design courses should have to play a round here so they know what NOT to do when they make a course. Do yourself a favor and go north and play a round at Rutgers.
