For astrology people, we're entering the Leo month (if that's even the right term) on Saturday. What would that have to do with courses in the Top 10, or ones that should be if not for a lack of reviews? Stay tuned...

I think I know, but I'm not going to be the spoiler.

Was going to say: nothing, it's astrology, lol.
I think I see where you're going though.

Let's just say the timing was completely coincidental. The astrology/Leo connection was only discovered while Googling for creative titles having to do with this soon-to-be revealed course and review.
Maple Hill gets its first review of the year and second in two years. Did you know that if you only counted reviews less than 5 years old that Maple Hill would be rated 4.96 and would be the #1 course in the world?

That's an interesting stat on Maple Hill. I didn't check, but I would assume Idlewild isn't too far back. Lake Marshall - The Lions is right up there too. with Craig's latest reviews its a 4.93. Just counting TR's, that's five 5.0. It's a top 5 bucket list course for me along with Maple Hill, Hillcrest, Jarva and Oak Grove

I count Idlewild at 4.72 over the last 5 years, but 5.00 over the last 3!
I am leaving on a road trip Thursday and should be playing both eagles crossing and harmony bends (not on same day) as well as disc side of heaven and hopefully many others. How did Mike get banned?

It's been my experience, that you can't post a comment if you are banned...but maybe that's changed. A soft ban ?

Fairfield bumped Lake Claiborne - Whitetail. I have played both so it doesn't change my top 25 count, and I would be happy to play either again. And maybe playing Fairfield as the third course on a 95°F day affected my enjoyment lol.
But I strongly preferred Lake Claiborne. Man, that course checked all of my boxes.

Thanks, Tyler!
That's four reviews now plus a "not a five" non-review on the Wall page.

i've also played both. both are in my favorites. i rated them almost the same, but for strengths in different areas. I really enjoyed the design of Fairfield. I had to really think about placement and know when and when not to gamble. Whitetail is a gem of a landscape.

Fairfield is lacking in amenities some might want/expect in a 5-Disc course such as a shelter, paved parking lot, more benches and better restrooms. On my wish list, I'd like a few more strategically placed trees in holes 1-4 & 18 including shade trees by tees. The locals are working with the park dept to get a bit more added each year. All that considered, it's a solid free, public course track with the unique twist of the back nines of the White and Gold layouts being mostly independent loops.
