Pros:
OVERALL FUN FACTOR (16% weight) - 5 - A very fun course!
COURSE DESIGN (14% weight) - 5 - Great layout with good use of elevation and natural features of the land. The blue and white tees are very different from each other which is great.
SIGNS/MAPS/MARKERS (11% weight) - 5 - Had no trouble finding any holes. course map sign, each tee is well marked, baskets well marked and "next tee" arrow signs are key.
SCENIC BEAUTY (8% weight) - 5 - Even though there aren't any water holes this was one of the most beautiful courses i've played yet. And there are a lot of artistic elements thrown into the landscaping. You can tell the local players here really love this course.
BASKETS (5% weight) - 3.5 - baskets in good condition. I liked the home made practice basket.
EPIC HOLES (5% weight) - 5 - Loved hole 5 where you have to throw over the tops of some tall spruce tree stumps. One had a voodoo doll stuck to the top of it there to taunt you as you prepare to tee off.
DISTANCE VARIETY (5% weight) - 5 - Excellent variety
SHOT VARIETY (5% weight) - 5 - course is designed to have you tee off using all different shot types. Plenty of trouble you can get into also that will force creative throws.
FOLIAGE MAINTENANCE (3% weight) - 4.5 - It looks to be kept up very well.
BENCHES / TRASH BINS (3% weight) - 3 - Quite a few benches and bag stands. A couple trashcans on the course were quite full.
MIX OF TIGHT AND OPEN (3% weight) - 4.5 - a very good mix of tight and open holes
OVERALL CHALLENGE (3% weight) - 4 - Not sure it woudl be all that challanging for an upper level player. I think I'll shoot better the next time I play here for sure.
CROWDED? (3% weight) - 4 - I was there on a midweek afternoon and not too many others. I heard that weekends it's not too bad at all.
Cons:
TEE PADS (8% weight) - 2 - Tees are inconsistent: some natural, some gravel, some rubber.
ELEVATION (8% weight) - 2 - flat on almost every hole, but they made use of it where they could.
PARKING (2% weight) - 2.5 - not much of a parking lot and it's a pull off from one of the "busier" roads on the island. But I actually took the bus, so it wasn't an issue. Public trans on MV is excellent.
Other Thoughts:
Martha's Vineyard is an awesome place. If you have a chance to visit make some time for this course.
