To spite not being too excited as I pulled in to the parking lot, this turned out to be a decent course. Over all this is a very fun and at times challenging course.

Much work still needs to be done as it is just in the clearing stages on the fairways on what must be some newly installed holes, mainly five through eight. Several trees have been cleared out and you will find some of them scattered about these holes. They have done a good job lining tee boxes with some of them. They are great holes though. Good flow and easy to follow.

Number one plays just below the parking lot and along the road. It is as if it was a warm up shot and then it's off to the woods for a really nice round. Two through eleven play though the dense woods and offer a variety of hole types. There are very slight elevation changes with slight doglegs left and right. Additionally, there are a few blind shots. Most of these holes are heavily wooded so accuracy is needed. Most memorable of these holes was number nine. A tree has fallen into the fork of another tree and created an arch. The picture does not do it justice. It is a great hole. On a side note about 8 deer came running through the woods about 25' from us. It added to the ambiance of the course.

Hole twelve sort of pulls you out of the woods onto what appears to be the mature side of the course and on towards the last hole to date, number 17. These holes are pretty good as well. I especially liked number thirteen. It's aptly named "Hill Street Blues". An uphill shot of about 370' with a steep bank to the right. The next two play across a ridge, 16 is at the bottom of the hill along a ball field fence line. Seventeen is back across the street and ends near hole number one.

Some holes on the course seem new and not 100% broken in just yet. Most of the things you expect to find on what appears to be an underfunded course are here. Dirt tee pads, homemade signs, missing amenities, and so forth. These will improve in time I'm sure. For some reason the park itself where the course is located just didn't feel very comfortable. After a round you sort of get over it though.

I ran into some locals who were quite eager to answer questions and seemed really enthusiastic about the course. If there are a handful of folks out there like them then I fully expect this to be a great little course in time. They mentioned six more holes being installed in the near future in the wooded area to the left of the parking lot.

I especially liked Fort Yargo DGC which is only minutes away from Victor Lord. It's nice to fit both of these in while you're here. There is camping at Fort Yargo as well for those interested.

Six new, wooded holes recently installed, with a decent layout. New holes are now 4-10, 1-3 original course, then you head deep into the woods. I like the new holes, though they are very "rough" and terribly marked. One cool hole (8/9?) under / over an arched tree. 4-8 from original course (now 10-14) not bad, mostly open. 8/14 is a really nice par 4/5 through a stand of pine trees. Finishing hole (10/16) not bad. I'd rate this course lower, due poor signange, tee pads, and its "roughness", but I know its kind of "home grown", and I know they are trying. At least the new holes are in, are decent, and all holes have two teeing areas.

No real tee pads, only paralell logs in flat spots. Not at all well marked, particularly the new holes. Some "next tee" signs, but then they disappeared. Signage on these holes consists of a number on a tree, pink flags on trees sort of marking the way. No numbers on tee baskets. I got lost more than once on the new holes, but eventually figured it out. When you end the new holes (4-9), you are back at the original 4-10, and they still say 4-10. Old hole 9 has disappeared. Only because I had played here before could I navigate this course. 9/15 is way below 8/14, steep hill down, or a long walk around the ball field. The new holes are very rough, stumps, trees, sticker bushes often in the fairway. Lots of steep up and down walking, traversing a creek bed. I almost wiped out / tripped several times. Be careful on these holes, and on the hill down from 8/14 to 9/15.

I know this is a community funded course, and it looks like they need money / volunteers. With some play and TLC the new rougher holes will wear in. Why only 16 holes? There is certainly space all around for 2 more holes. Minimum, home grown signage, and a volunteer day to spruce up tee boxes, paths, directional markers, etc. is what this course needs.

New holes with multiple pin locations, mix of open fairways and wooded skill shots. Beginner friendly and not overcrowded.

Signage or lack there of. Tee pads are natural.

This course is constantly being improved and with good signs it will be one of my favorite courses to play.
