Sherwood Forest is set in Sherwood Park . Stay alert . You will see a Sherwood Park with no baskets right in front of you . You have to look for a driveway on the other side of the Sherwood Drive across from the visible park . The short driveway will lead you to an okay sized parking lot . I didn't see a bathroom here .
The Equipment - The tee pads are about 4' X 8' crushed gravel The small wood tee signs are about 12" high with just the hole # and distance . The baskets are single chained Chainstars . There is a nice shelter at the parking lot with 2 benches and a grille next to it .
The Landscape . This is a true park style course . It is flat but not wide open . There are enough obstacles here to make even the short holes here interesting . Sherwood Forest is packed in tight , so there are no long walks between holes once you get your bearings . The course was mowed and landscaped when I was here .
Course Appearance/Atmosphere - The atmosphere is light , as the course caters to the young and/or inexperienced . The course itself is above average looking and the outlying visible areas are also pretty good to look at .
The Highlights - Not a lot of highlights for a course that's longest hole ( 270' ) is 36' longer than it's next longest hole . #6 was the more intriguing hole . at 241' , it forces you to either shoot the thin slot between small bushes/trees , or throw up top and over them . There are some good variety of obstructions for the holes , except #7 which is an open stright shot .
Disc Risk - You would have to try hard to lose your disc here . You may have to dig in a bush to get one out , but there is little risk .
The Time - It took me about 20 minutes to play this flat course . A group of 4 will finish it in 40 minutes or less .

#1 Safety - This course is packed tight , it's open and can be windy , and it will draw mostly newbies and kids looking to learn . Combine these , and you have a recipe for a Club Sandwich . Fairways run right alongside each other .There was only one other player when I was on the course . and we were experienced enough to stay out of each others lines .
#2 Navigation - Going from tee to tee is not seamless here . You could easily skip a couple of holes if not paying attention
#3 Challenge - Any adult that plays even sporadically will have a deuce fest here . They may even pick up and ace if the wind is down . .The parking lot had more slope than the park . Not a terrible thing , though .

If you are coming here and your group are the only people here , then this park could be a lof ot fun . Since it is so short , a couple of glow discs and some solar shield baskets or glow strips would make this great for night golf . The course plays so fast , you could get in a quick round on your lunch break if working in Conway . They say that you have to crawl before you can walk . This is THAT crawl course . Perfect for the elementary school kids , Located close to Main Street , there are plenty of food or drink options about 2 minutes away .
My Recommendation - I was surprised when I came here . Not expecting much , I came away with more . This is a fantastic intro , newbie , family or date course . 1 Disc players will love it here , too . Locals can sharpen their approach and putt game . Not much here for intermediates on up unless they live close by . Travelers , here is your stop going to or coming from Myrtle Beach . A quick 20 that's easy on the legs . Course Collectors , same thing . You can grab up to 4 courses in a short morning if Waccamaw isn't flooded . Not a course to go out of your way much , but close enough to 501 to stop and have a beverage or sandwich and get your fix .
