Pros:
Brand new DISCatchers, two tees on all holes, pretty quick play.
Good course for a town this size in a area without a course.
Holes are laid out to play away from the 10-foot high, barbed wire fence around the Piedmont Natural Gas facility. It would take a big grip lock for righties to get over that fence.
They put in a Mando on #7 to have at least one left to right hole.
Cons:
Most holes play right to left, I'm a righty but like to have a variety.
Tees are gravel, they aren't too bad, but probably will need regular maintenance. No signage, benches are trash cans. New course, so hopefully these will be added.
A large sign at the first hole would be a nice marker to look for when arriving for the first time.
Other Thoughts:
Overall, a nice 9 holer for this town. I'm thinking it was put in by Piedmont Natural Gas (note the course name) for their employees and a give back to the town. The course starts just before their fenced in property and moves clockwise around the property to finish on the far side.
Not sure how much property they have around the course, but it would be cool if they added nine more, back into the woods, then returning to finish on these holes.
The Piedmont facility looks pretty new, so they have a large, barbed wire fence around it to protect their property. Good idea, this industrial park is kind of hidden. So, most of the holes are straight, or bend right to left, away from the fence for righties. Smart.
#9 is a good finishing hole, longest hole at 417' from the blues, starts flat, with the fence on the right, then drops down to a drainage ditch then up to the basket on the other side.
The only course within 20-25 miles, not a destination course, but convenient and fun for the locals.
