Great Place Before Flip 2+ years

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 13, 2012 Played the course:once

Pros:

Once you find the first hole this place is pretty easy to direct around. Most holes end where the next one starts or have a path there.

Baskets- They are brand new baskets all cemented into the ground.

They have a good amount of shots for a nine hole course. For being pretty short they still have a good amount of challenge here.

Cons:

The tee pads are dirt/sand, hole 6 and 9 are pretty hard to drive on with a run up.

9 Holes, would like to have more.

Hole 7 has a large hole next to it, if you are playing glow disc here this would defiantly be a problem.

Other Thoughts:

First Hole is in the bottom of the parking lot behind the ""Barnish looking this"

The course flows together pretty good, and it's easy to get a 30 minute warm up round before flip.

I am guessing there is no drinking here as it's on a church.

this would also be a nice place to play glow while camping at flip.

Pros:

Aesthetic- Chuch property is decent but shares some territory with probable field for church functions. I can see this being an "issue" at some point.

Routing/Nav-not an issue once at the first tee. Course flows nicely from pin to tee.

Challenge- Many blind holes that require scouting prior to throwing. VERY short course that doesn't provide much challenge as far as distance driving.

Baskets-brand new discatchers with bright yellow charity stripes. helps visibility on blind holes.

Cons:

Tees- tees are natural and are VERY uneven and even dangerous (see #6 and #8) which are angled downhill and rutty, providing many tripping hazards.

Teesigns-while, at least they have them, they just list a tee number but no distance or anything else of use.

Challenge and risk v reward- not really any to speak of.

Only 9- rumor is that there will be 9 more holes eventually.

Other Thoughts:

This is a great course to warm up to Flip City without warming up AT flip city. we hit it on the way to leagues and had a good time!
