good old course, needs update 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Sep 1, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Hilly ups and down with cliffs that make some holes a workout, challenging and technical.
Well maintained and beautiful area
Mutliple Pin placements that get moved around periodically keep it interesting year round.
Good variety of angles, hyzers, anhyzer, gaps, straight fairways, uphill, downhill, over valleys to pins on top of hills, etc it will test all of your woods skills

Cons:

Not many places to sit down and take a breather after going up and down hills
Could have better tee signs that are more accurate.
Course was clearly designed for Frisbee golfers in the 70s, some holes could be modified to be a little longer for modern discs that are made to fly farther.

Other Thoughts:

Bottom line is: Needs a modern redesign overhaul, this is a dated "pitch and putt" course that has been updated partially with a few holes modified/added and then mixed in with old holes, parts of the west loop are great and a few holes on the other loops are good too but if all the 70's frisbee holes in between could be reworked this could be good again for the next generation. Would like to see more par 4's and 5's, One 18 hole course design would fit just fine starting at the west loop some of the holes dont need any changes and then finish with parts of the mid loop being used. Then the East loop could remain a partial loop including some of the mid loop and be the recreational pitch and putt par 3 course that many people still love.
