Pros:
I ended up just hitting this course in order to increase my course count, but what I found genuinely surprised me. This course seems to have been redesigned since the previous reviews, so I will try to give as fair a review as possible. In the description for this course, it suggested that some of the baskets were still homemade, but as of summer 2014 all of the baskets are new, disc nation liberty baskets. It seems as if the homemade baskets that were originally used for this course were used to create a small, fairly boring pitch and putt course for younger kids, and newer players.
Variety- I was very surprised at the variety I found at this course, as the majority of the ski resort courses I have been to do not incorporate trees, just the open ski trails. The designer did a good job at creating different flight lines in the trees, as well as using obstacles such as the side of more open ski runs to create lines and force accurate upshots.
Elevation- This is a ski resort course, so of course there is some sweet elevation changes, and even though there were no huge downhill shots, the elevation on this part of okemo was put to good use.
Water incorporation- There is a fairly large brook/river that runs throughout the course, which not only creates challenge for the more advanced player, but also makes for some really fun, and beautiful shots.
Amenities- The course is situated just above a base lodge, so all the amenities you could dream of are available. The signage seemed to be very good for temporary signage and the maps provided made navigation easy and doable for first timers
Cons:
There are not many cons that go along with this course, because it serves its purpose very well, and not a lot of improvements can be made, and the ones that can are not necessarily realistic to expect for a sport that probably does not generate a huge revenue.
The course is only a temporary course, because it exists on a ski resort and is only open in the summer, and this limits the possibility of this course. For this reason, the baskets are not the best, because they are only temporary baskets.
Although most of the teepads are flypads, it seems as if the staff that installed this course did not take the proper care and time to level out the areas where the teepads were to be installed before installing the flypads. I understand that the flypads need to be removed, and therefore easy to remove, but I think they could have done a better job.
Other Thoughts:
Overall, this course definitely succeeds and excels for the population that the course is geared towards. I really like the idea of ski resort courses, because they often hook first timers on this wonderful sport.
