    Review by owenrae in course Silver Fox DGC

    4.00 star(s) Great late fall through early spring Concrete tees on all holes. Very evident trails from one hole to the next. The few that weren't very clear there were signs pointing the way. No doubt this is a challenging course Loved hole 17. It made me think I was playing a Colorado course. When you...

    Review by owenrae in course Bethel University DGC

    3.50 star(s) Now 18 holes Very nice course with some elevation, water hazard, good mix of long and short technical holes. They are just about done pouring the last of the concrete tee pads for the additional 6 holes (two left I think). There are long and short tee pads on 5 or 6 of the holes. The...

    Review by owenrae in course Valley View Park

    1.00 star(s) Not an 18 hole course Decent 9 hole course 9 hole course with long and short tee pads trying to play itself off as 18. There are only 9 baskets. With this logic any 18 hole course with long and short tee pads should be listed as 36. When I pulled in the parking lot I mentioned to my wife that...

    2.50 star(s) flat flat flat Concrete tee pads. A couple holes throw around or near a baseball field, playground equipment and picnic areas. While I played the course a truck parked within 10 feet on the far side of hole 17, Another truck parked right in the path of the 18th fairway (truck was hit). This...

    Review by owenrae in course Forest City DGC

    3.00 star(s) Water water everywhere Concrete pads. Decently easy to follow once we found hole 1. The water. On the front 9 probably half the holes had standing water somewhere in the fairway. I didn't think there was a lot of rain preceding our trip there but they must have had some. On the back 9 it was...

    Review by owenrae in course McKinley Park

    2.50 star(s) Good for what it is clean course nice baskets well maintained short t pads somewhat monotonous This is a decent course for what there is to work with. The hill this course is laid out on is fairly open so the choice of where the tees and holes went didn't really make a difference. You are...

    Review by owenrae in course Lake Fisher DGC

    3.50 star(s) Tee pads would add a lot This course reminds me of Pickard Park in Indianola. It has hills, mostly open, mowed grass fairways. When I played, we were the only people on the course for the duration we were there. Two holes play over water but not in real danger of throwing one in unless it is...

    Review by owenrae in course Centerville DGC

    3.50 star(s) Hills, a creek, Big trees I've played all the courses in Central Iowa many times and decided to see what southern Iowa had for courses. I was impressed with this course. It compares favorably with any course in central Iowa. It reminds me a little bit of the Council Bluffs course with the...
