A new Gem for OKC 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:May 24, 2021 Played the course:once

Pros:

Killer tee pads
Excellent tee signs
Great red Mach X baskets
Great use of the land
Decent flow, was able to find the course without my phone working pretty easy
Several good two shot holes where your drive is very important to set up a decent upshot

Cons:

New course is still a little rough around the edges
Not a fan of the mando's
Lots of manufactured OB's

Other Thoughts:

What can I say, I am being super picky with my con's for this course. It is true that I am not a fan of "fake" ob lines or mando's.

but this course really really does it right. The OB's are marked very well with white sticks and they don't mow past them so you can see the OB lines pretty easy off the tees.

The OB's are mostly to force shots, not to protect other park users. There are a few double mando's and a few triple mando's to keep players from throwing over everything. They are very clearly marked with yellow polls.

I am SO sorry my phone ran out of juice on the 3rd hole. I really planned on posting a lot more pictures than I did.

There are very nice restrooms by the parking lot. There is a practice basket with a very nice putting area in the shade near hole 1. Great place to warm up while you are waiting for the wife to use the bathroom. (or is that just me)

You start out with a few wooded holes, hole one is only 300ft but you can't get there that easy. Decent doglet to the right up a slight hill.

Then you cross over a great bridge with bird feeders on it named after the McClellan's. They are legends of Norman, Jonny Mac, MitchMac and Gunner.

Got a couple of great tunnel short holes including hole #3 that is an S shaped hole ending on a peninsula with a small creek around 3 sides of the green.

The course opens up after that with a few mando's and lots of artificial OB's to avoid.

I got to mention the last 2 holes on the course.

Hole 17, triple mando down a tight tunnel and over a small creek to a landing area. From here you still need to to to the right to a basket on the side of a pretty good little slope. It's listed as a par 5, but if you get lucky, you could get the 3.

Hole 18 has the same thing, another triple mando throwing out to a hard left with a double mando in the middle of the fairway and OB left and right of that.

Would I play here again? Yep, for sure. I really want to play this course again now that I know the basic layout. This is a course that can eat your lunch but you can shoot good. One of, if not the best course in the OKC area.
