Reviewed: Played on:May 24, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

This is the best course I have played around this area (although I have only played a few courses).
It is a great combination of tight and wooded holes on the front nine to wide open from # 12 on (except for #17 which incorporates a long slow sweeping right curve on the edge of a tree line). I say tight and wooded for the front nine but that is coming from an intermediate player. The fairways, if you will, are typically about 25-35 feet wide on most of the wooded holes.

Cons:

The only real gripes I have are that sometimes the course can get pretty crowded and after rains it can make for tricky footing on some of the front nine.

Other Thoughts:

If you are in the area don't miss this course. You will appreciate the layout and the typically very well maintained course. Make sure to bring some water on hot days because the back nine offers little in the way of shade. Also, for those who play here more often you should try the "alternate" tees on #14 and #15 (90 degrees from the teepad up on the hill by the road, and by the two huge telephone poles at the edge of the soccer field respectively). Just look for the 2 worn down dirt patches and get an entirely different drive for these 2 holes. Personally I think these two teepads are far more fun but are definitely a little shorter (more so on #15).

Pros:

Drastic elevation changes make coarse technical but fun to play. Well taken care of and in great condition all the time.

Cons:

Thick brush on almost every hole make it difficult to find and retrieve any disk that may stray from the fairway.

Other Thoughts:

Great coarse for all range of players. Beginners may need to be a little more cautious of letting disks stray from the fairway because from personal experience it is a pain to try to find a disk that has gone into the woods which are pretty thick. Also be careful if it has just rained, the steep hills are clay and get pretty slick.

NICE 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 23, 2008 Played the course:never

Pros:

Little bias it is my home course. Right handers course. Has a little of everything, tight and open. Big drives are a must!

Cons:

You are either deep in the woods or wide open, no middle ground. The kudzu can get really bad.

Other Thoughts:

Have fun it is technical but can be very foregiving.
