Pros:
Wonderful short course (9 Holes only). Easy to follow, very First Time Friendly! From each basket just keep your head up and look around and you'll easily find the post for the next hole. Each hole has a post with a detailed map of Tee to Basket to include distances and Pars. Good mix of easy to challenging. The tees are marked A & B with B being easier. The A tees are either more difficult due to distance or placement, sometimes both! If new to the game B's are great, if you have any experience you HAVE to play from the A tees to face some challenge.
Cons:
Very short. Only Hole 1 could be described as a Grip it and Rip it, but if you have a strong arm you'll Ace it or throw right over it! After that its all woods. No Tee Pads. The Tees are marked but many of the Tee Markers have been run over by lawn mowers and some have been damaged (not all). No rest rooms or amenities, although if hard pressed you may be able to gain access to the church. Not too challenging if you've played many courses or are a Pro.
Other Thoughts:
The Course is behind the church, so park as far back as you can and walk to the middle of their playing field. In the middle is the first post and from there you'll see the basket for Hole 1.
Each Hole map (Post) has a very nice engraved map with verses from the Bible for each Hole. This is interesting and fun to read as you play. If you are offended by Christian teachings don't read and just play, but if you enjoy Christian teaching take the time, they are a great touch. Each verse tries to tie into the Hole number. For example; Hole Nine lists the 9 fruits of the Spirit, Hole One starts with..."In the Beginning...." Its fun looking for the theme as you read and play.
Favorite Holes: Hole 6: A unique throw over two small creeks to an uphill basket sitting on an incline.
I would rate this a 3.5 if it had 18 holes, with 9 its still a solid 3. A simple fun course, have fun and enjoy. I hope more people learn of it and come on out.
Note: Also while from most baskets, its real easy to spot the next Post, be aware that from the 8th Basket to the 9th its a bit of a walk. After crossing the bridge to the right is the 9th basket and to the left is the post and tees. Walk a bit to the left and you'll find the 9th tees.
UPDATE 02-28-2011: This course now has a full 18 holes! The back nine has baskets in place and some have tees in ground, but it is a work in progress. The back 9 do not have maps near tee pads like front nine, although I am sure they are on the way. Still the course lay out for the back nine is more challenging then the short ease of the front nine. Once all in place in a full capacity I will go back and make changes to my original review. Just thought a reader may want to know that a full 18 can be played as it stands. Fun course and once you find your way to the 10th hole tee, its all pretty easy to follow the entire way to hole 18. Once finished, this will be a sweet full course for all to discover!
