Classic Review lines

[chevis]

b-mart kinda scary here (tho not that scary, i have no children):

I have to start by admitting that the original Bud Pell was my favorite course. Period. It wasn't my GOAT. That was Dalaiwood. I'd back over your children with a bus just to play there one more time. Yeah. You. Your children. But I'll do my very best to review this new layout without comparing it too often to the original. It will come up. It happens. But I'll try to be nice.

Those courses are the bees knees after he gets knee replacement surgery with titanium implants.

This is a pretty "classic" review line. Kind of want to ask the reviewer, "LOL DO U ENGLISH?" Maybe they'd understand that.

What course is that? I want to see this.

Well...crap. I really don't know. I just saved the screenshot and didn't keep any of the pertinent information. Sorry about that.

Cause that might be mine but I highly doubt that.

I like that, too.
Still, if he's rating it only as a 3.0, then there should be at least one con....

He should have a con or two, Mine was No Tee pads Concrete or rubber and how busy the course is on Weekends. I see it as 98% of the holes you will have the ground where the color coordinated metal bar you have to throw behind is unusable especially on the two long tee spots where a run up is needed. Exception is the one pitch and putt as well on a tight fairway hole that forces either a sky shot or a minimum of 3 shots on hole 18.

- BEGINNER FRIENDLY - If you've played less than 100 rounds, stay far far away unless you enjoy getting your head beat in.

Pretty sure wellsbranch250 was referring to how challenging Roy G. Guerrero is, rather than to actual physical violence, but
having never played the course, I'm not quite sure.... could be in a rough part of town.

 

[Zanguini]

There aren't really any rough parts of Austin... but generally the further south you go the worse it gets... Roy G is just south of the river it is in an okay spot...

 

[wellsbranch250]

no physical violence, but I did smack my head into a stationary tree branch off fairway.

The first few lines of heelboycraig's review of Carson-Newman:

Pros
-Carson Newman is a pleasant small-town college. You can take a nice stroll through campus. And if you're lucky, you may even find some of the holes.
-There are nine baskets. Each one is in pretty good shape.
-You get to walk by many nice campus buildings. Six to be exact.
-You also cross two streets and walk under one crosswalk.

Thanks. I thought my review title was the best part of the review.

Clever review titles seem under appreciated.

Perhaps there should be a thread for classic review titles.

Personally having read a lot of Mr.butlertrons reviews (we've covered a lot of same area) I've always enjoyed his. but I always pm him to let him know when he cracks me up.

The bolded is NOT a reason to knock down a course rating, IMHO.

What if the course sucks and it's still busy. :\

Speaking of heelboycraig, I just read his excellent review of Panther Creek (really looking forward to playing this course hopefully around the end of the month).

My favorite parts:

There is a hunting stand, (or worse) behind #6's basket. I had a slight thought of Wrong Turn when checking it out. Deep in the woods, an enclosed stand, nobody around to hear one scream.

and:

Some people will not like this layout. It's physically grueling. First course I ever had to pause for a minute after only the fifth hole. (9 courses in 4 states in the previous day and a half may also been a factor).

You don't say?

I did not, just was under cons players that at like they are the only ones on the course and play as if they are the only player on the course even if you tell them others are on course too. I think Disc Golf has grown in the area that Shipwreck Cove is in since the local disc golfers have discovered the course and some still treat it like they are the only ones on the course. Nice baskets the Mach IV are, only one of the baskets is in a poor spot as was one of the Tee Markers missing like they had to change the hole to play safer from original marking, too close to the last basket and a water main.

Either it's the only option in 50 miles, there's a bunch of course baggers in the area, or they're all just morons :|
