Straight up LONG 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 5, 2011 Played the course:once

Pros:

1. Good use of the land with a wonderful view the entire trip
2. exceptionally long open shot holes in front 9 that are fun to test out your strength.
3. Nice spread of shot variancies, thankfully more shots to the left than right.
4. the wooded part of the course is very tight nit and it doesn't seem like theres a fairway, but it proves an exhilerating difficulty for those of us who stick to the safer rought.
5. Good long course so you get lots of exercise.

Cons:

1. no tee pads :(
2. no signs :(
3. not a lot of areas to rest
4. high risk water hazards
5. spikey bushes er'very wer.
6. muddy in most places.
7. no tee pads.... no tee pads... NO TEE PADS! (I seriously almost cried when I found this out, this is important to me..)
8. It's kind of difficult to navigate, I had to direct a lot of people on where to find hole #9.

Other Thoughts:

To sum it up, a great starter course, but it needs a few improvements, maybe some teepads? Beautiful, and highly enjoyable though, just make sure you stop at the front gate to get a map.

The Crazy 18 is just that... 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jun 13, 2008 Played the course:once

Pros:

Updated *Played 5/8/2009*
- Very technical and challenging
- Secluded and almost desolate
- Good amount of elevation changes
- A nice mix of open field holes and tight wooded fairways
- Great new entrance sign
- Great baskets
- Combines length with technicality to challenge any level player
- Hagg Lake has other fun things to do
- Alcohol is allowed

Cons:

- The grass on the open field holes was almost waist high at times, very easy to loose a disc
- Wooded holes are quite hazardous off the fairways
- Not free but cheap and really who cares
- Natural tees
- Long walks between some holes

Other Thoughts:

Upon entrance you may notice messages etched warning to turn around and go to Pier Park. I suggest playing it but keep in mind a few things:

- Bring a map
- Wear boots or trail shoes
- Use spotters
- Be prepared to get tired and possibly loose plastic

Favorite hole = 12 - Elevated tee over a gully with very thick underbrush, basket is up and to the right through a doorway of trees.
