- I was surprised at how few courses there are in a bustling area as big and populated as the Tidewater area, so having a few more baskets to throw at is a plus. Especially if you go to Virginia Wesleyan.

....and that's it for the pros.

- Absolutely abysmal layout. There's no rhyme or reason to this course. Nothing to tell you where to begin and the vast majority of holes have no logical progression to them. For instance, we started on hole #4 and couldn't tell where to go next. "Oh, wait...there's a sign across the street." Got to the sign and the throwing lane is directly THROUGH a huge climbing tower that looks as if it belongs to SEAL Team Six. All this, coupled with the fact that hole #1 was nonexistent -- literally, we could not find any evidence that this course had a first hole -- makes this course nonsensical. Another example is #7: You finish the hole and there's no real indication of where to go next. Come to find out that it's way across a barren field and the sign for #8 (such as it is) faces a pond. Very awkward and completely unnatural.

- No tee boxes whatsoever. The signs at the supposed starting point for each hole were sporadic at best and gave you the distance and par, but no signal as to from whence you're supposed to throw your first shot.

- Some baskets were okay, but some were bent to hell, as if someone took a baseball bat to them.

- Did I mention that the layout sucks?

- No topless Hooters girls frolicking along the #8 fairway.

The only reason this course even gets half a star is because there are eight more baskets to throw at in Hampton Roads. That's it. This course is a nice amenity if you go to Virginia Wesleyan College, but other than that there's no benefit to going out of your way to play it. It's shoddy, disheveled, and in a state of chaotic disrepair. If I had to use two words to describe it they would be "strategically ridiculous." It literally seems as if someone put in the baskets in some random places throughout the campus and then another guy with glaucoma came in and installed the tee signs.

Bottom line: if you live in VB this might be worth checking out just for a change of pace, but if you're visiting Hampton Roads you're better of skipping this course altogether. It's not worth the time.
