I played Beaver Ranch, I didn't think it was very good. For a mountain course, Sipapu was a lot more fun with better shots selection.

Idlewild is pretty creative and there aren't hole's where you throw a great drive just to have a weird pitch 2nd.
Renny was nice but just didn't live up to the hype and I should have taken the advice of going to Hornet's Nest to test some true woods golf..............actually maybe that is what i was so upset about...........it wasn't as wooded as I had hoped NC would be and there is no undergrowth which makes it easier too.
also I think there are courses like The Farm in MI, which are getting high ratings as a joke or as homie-ism that once 10 5 disc reviews are up will be at the top
DeLa is not even close to being a top 10 course IMO. It probably ranks in my top 50 but its really way overblown. Nearby Stafford Lake would be a much closer contender.
Idlewild, Woodshed, Tyler are all deserving of the top 10 and Milo and Whistler's are close to top 10 for me but not quite there. I think a course like Iron Hill in DE begs for inclusion and of course the Whippin' Post is IMO the better of the two paw paw courses so it could easily be included and Maple Hill should definitely be in there!!
That's always going to be an issue. Not much you can do about it without restricting access and turning people away from the site.Well maybe the fact is that too many people are reviewing courses with little experience and giving courses 5 out of 5 which I don't think I would do for any course.
Maybe there are several types of 5 disc courses. Lightly, moderately and heavily wooded fives. Would you demand elevation for it to be a 5. If it is lightly wooded like Flip then I say yes(just for wow factor which I assume all 5s must have). Or instead of elevation can it have water shots instead? Or does a 5 need both water and elevation? If it is wooded with water shots does it need elevation also to be a 5? just mumbling out loud.
It doesn't need one thing or another, it needs all of them to be a 5 in my book.
