Great front 9, back 9 feels forced 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 24, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

Front 9 is a solid wooded layout with great elevation both up and down. Some midrange shots and some driver shots, great shot selection. I used thumber on 7, roller on 8, annys and hyzers. 18 chain baskets, nice tee signs and large concrete pads.

Cons:

Back 9 as mentioned before is flat and mostly wide open and to any experience player 50+ courses in will feel its both dangerous with roads and parking lots but also boring. Just rhbh hyzer after hyzer with the exception of 16.

Other Thoughts:

As mentioned before this course is on an awesome piece of land. The front 9 and back 9 feel like they are designed by different people. My personal take is I would just do 2 sets of tees on every hole the front 9 to make 18 holes with 9 baskets. The shots are there and they are quality as I played both sets of pads.

Robbin's Island 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 29, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Challenging holes that provide a lot of obstacles, and elevation changes. Mature trees, and attractive scenery.

Cons:

Only 9 holes. Dirt tee boxes. No real hole explination, or course direction shown at tee boxes. Very buggy in the back sections of the course.

Other Thoughts:

I would consider this an average course, and maybe a little harder than I expected. Some of the holes are pretty simple, but some are nearly impossible to get a respectable score on unless you are VERY precises or very lucky. Either way the course is laid out fairly good, and the views are pretty neat at points.
