Most baskets are well protected by trees, so shot shaping comes into play. There are a few (usually dry) creek beds that come into play on a couple holes. Course is not ridiculously littered with random trees, unlike 'Crooked Creek' park in Chapin, SC. Professionals are likely to stay away because they love long holes that keep mid level players out of their league - this course gives amateurs with experience here a fair chance at success. Course is not usually crowded. There is shade on most holes, so you can play in the summer and not get scorched. There are restrooms and a water fountain near the ballfields. There is a football field if you want to practice long throws.

Pros will give Seven Oaks a bad review because they won't get the free advantage of drive length, aside from Hole 5. Pros will knock Seven Oaks as some sort of an 'ace' course, and I read someone above write that it is "as easy as they come" (but I can guarantee you they will rarely ace ANY holes even over the course of dozens of games, as the holes are moderately protected, for the most part). Course can become very muddy in places after rainfall, but drains rather well by the day after. This park attracts walkers, and there is a path running through and around it, so you have to be mindful before you throw. Some people set up outfield chairs too close to the course during baseball season, so watch out!

Pros should stay away from here because they are likely to get their heads handed to them by 'lesser' players who know what they are doing, such as me. I hate to see them get embarrassed like that. If you have accuracy and can putt well, you can score well here - if you bother to have respect for the course and actually learn the holes. Your mega blockbuster super sweet jam up driver disc isn't gonna give you the automatic win here, you're actually going to have to earn it. And to the guy who says he has to use a putter on 8/9 holes - I can guarantee you'd lose to me five times in row with that kind of disrespect - and I'm a self-taught complete amateur.

Aside from a lack of any really long holes, this course has a good selection of holes. It's really good practice for your short game. Everything is under 200ft, aside from hole 5.
All the tees are concrete and everything is well maintained.
Great for a quick game after work or school.

It's only 9 holes, not very technical, and all but one hole is under 200ft.

Can easily play the whole course in less than 30 minutes.
