-awesome piece of private land with trees, meadows, a river, and some very mildly undulating ground
-total seclusion: no house or buildings on site and none immediately adjacent to the property
-Patriot baskets in great condition, detailed laminated signs near each tee
-great course design that makes good use of the land and emphasizes tunnels
-sensibly used OB is clearly marked
-easy navigation, natural flow, well marked
-Nathan is an great host and is quick to communicate
-looks like the course is constantly being improved

-the turf tees are decent, there were also at least a couple dirt tees if i remember correctly
-no bathrooms or running water and not much very close by

This is such a cool course and it looks like it is just going to get better and better. Nathan has designed a fun and demanding layout that makes great use of the land. The iteration of the course that I played is 18 holes with par set at 58. Nathan mentioned that hole 9 is getting a new, longer tee pad (on top of a storage container, once the deck is built) that about doubles the length of the hole so par could go up to 59.

The layout puts a premium on straight tunnel shots with 6 holes fitting that description. The majority of holes are moderately to heavily wooded and only about 6 or 7 holes are on the more open side, including three of the par 4 holes. The other par 4 is hole 7, a straight 422' tunnel with a mando that you must go under to be safe. The river can come into play on holes 12-14 but primarily on hole 12, which has the option of a big hyzer out over the water on the right or a tight tunnel on the left.

I thought the only drawback was some of the tees. Most of them are decent but a few were a little uncomfortable. Some of the more wooded areas, especially closer to the creek, have a lot of vine-like stuff growing out of the ground as well as stumps from removal of some of the larger diameter stuff. I can't remember exactly but I want to say that was a factor on a hole with a dirt tee... hole 12? It's also something to watch out for when walking down some of the fairways. I also feel like these are some of the things that will continue to improve over time. It is very clear that Nathan puts a lot of time and effort into this course.

This would be a great course anywhere but in Wichita Falls it stands head and shoulders above all the other local courses. The $5 course fee is well worth it and I would absolutely pay the $50 annual membership if I were a local. If you have a chance to play here, you should. If you know you will be heading to Wichita Falls, definitely make plans to play here.


**Like this review? Hate it? Message me and let me know why! I want to make them better!**

- Lots of well marked OB whether it's the par four hole 1 or an island hole, lots of trouble if not on the fairway
- Laminated tee signs at every hole show you distance and "rules" for the hole; OB, drop zones, etc.
- Excellent use of natural tunnel shots, moderate elevation changes including mounds, and interesting basket locations
- Love the mando where there is a rope tied across from the fence line to a tree which makes your disc stay under this section making you use the narrow fairway instead of throwing over it
- Some baskets are hanging from trees instead of being in the ground making some easier holes much harder when you're having to putt up at them
- Very aesthetically pleasing
- Nathan is a super guy and will give you all the information you need over text, very appreciative
- You are likely to be all alone here as it is in the middle of BFT (bum f**k Texas)

- Hole 2's basket is on a slope right next to the river and a missed putt rolls into a moderately moving river; almost lost my 20 year old putter after hitting the basket and not seeing the river there at first glance. This basket could be moved in just 10 feet to avoid such a travesty as a missed putt that hit chains doesn't deserve you a lost disc
- Hole 1 is the only par 4 on the course and it is fairly easy at just over 500 feet. There is a nice tree bunker in the middle of this fairway and OB on the sides that is danger though.
- The course doesn't feel complete yet as there are 14 holes here which isn't a problem as number of holes don't matter but there are still holes being designed and built

This was my first course in Texas and really enjoyed playing this private course. The $5 course fee is well worth it in my estimation. I was in the middle of nowhere and Nathan sent me an address for the nearest bathroom. I found a disc of his and he was very grateful. If you're driving through or to Wichita Falls this is a fun private course where the only thing you'll hear here is the birds chirping.
