Whitehouse

Reviewed: Played on:Mar 14, 2024 Played the course:once

Pros:

--Baskets. They are cheap and flimsy, but they are there.
--Nos. 6 and 9 are the best holes. Six is 73 feet downhill with three trees and low limbs to avoid. Nine is 133 feet uphill on an open but narrowing fairway to a basket with trees right and a baseball fence left.

Cons:

--Safety/poor design. The course is so small and compact (total area no more than half the size of a football field) that you can always see other holes and players, so it's unlikely you'll ever hit another player or get hit, but there would be danger and a lot of waiting if more than one group were on the course. The No. 4 tee is in the middle of the No. 2 fairway. The No. 3 basket is 20 feet in front of the No 4 tee. The 5 tee is 15 feet right of the 4 basket, and the 6 tee is 15 feet from the 5 basket. And 10 is a ridiculous hole. It's 150 feet, RHBH anny with the baseball fence on your right. The basket sits 3 feet left of the fence and 3 feet right of a wooden garden enclosure.
--Really short holes. Only one longer than 150 feet, and several shorter than 100 feet. Those distances are good for young people from the church just starting out, but they're not going to do much for anyone else.
--No amenities (water, map, restrooms). There are a couple of benches near the parking lot, but I can't imagine needing them on a 10-hole, 1,100-foot long course.
--Tees signs are just 4x4 red posts with the hole number and no other information. Several posts are lying on the ground. The front of the tee is marked by another short 4x4 red post.

Other Thoughts:

--On the grounds of Whitehouse United Methodist Church on Main Street.
--Based on the 2-year-old photos on this site, baskets have been and are replaced when necessary, but it appears that all versions of the baskets are and have been cheap. In fact, an extra basket (No. 11?) is sitting 10 feet from the No. 8 tee.
