Pros:
It is a fun course to play; open, challenging, water, esthetically pleasing, nice baskets. OB is clearly marked, alligators, and golf carts make this a unique experience.
Cons:
Well, there is a map. Hand-drawn like amoebas with stars on it and numbers, and the woman at the desk even added a couple of other hen scratchings that were supposed to assist me. Since this was the first time I played it, I was still a little unsure of what markers were for what. She told me I could play from the golf tees, or the disc tees, my choice. Great, now I have 5 places to pick from per hole. Ball golfers weren't really sure of where they would play from either. So red, white and blue - rec, regular and advanced. On a flat course with 3 baskets in front of you it is hard to tell which is which - so you throw towards the most logical one and hope. So the tees aren't well defined and the baskets have no number plates? Upon getting to the baskets you can see long faded numbers from a time long ago before sun and rain did there damage. So you get the picture. I finish the round - a couple birds, many pars, and bogies and double bogies. Let's face it, the amoebas and lack of signage had me confused! So I very politely suggest to the woman that numbering the baskets would be a good idea. Therein the argument ensued. I said the numbers could be freshened up and they could even take a fat magic marker and write the numbers on the tee markers. Heresy!!! "Well, I'll tell my boss, but he's not going to like it!" I said, that several comments on line over the years referred to the same recurring problem; signage, identification, and mapping. "All right! I'll tell him, but I don't think he will do anything about it, the disc course plays just like the ball course!!" Okay. It doesn't, but thats another discussion for another day.
Other Thoughts:
So my fun outing with a golf cart and alligators was somewhat diminished by the woman at the desk. Please go and play the course, it was fun! The carts are a luxury for me, the open fairways a pleasure, and the course was interesting and challenging. Holes at 600 feet, it's not a pitch and putt. But I have to admit, I hate being confused, wandering around wondering, and being unsure if I was even aiming at the right basket from the correct tees. In the do's and do nots of good courses, good signage is in the top three things you should do. Another thing you should probably do is be receptive to suggestions when the same recurring idea is presented.
