Pros:
The pro layout here is actually a nice little course. It hasn't got a lot of length, but it has some and there is a nice variety of shots among the nine holes.
I you aren't aware there are nine standard holes here, and while they aren't anything an experienced player should bother playing, the designer has taken the time to create two additional layouts, shooting for example, from the first tee o the standard layout to the the third basket.
It's a clever way of both creating multiple holes in very limited space and allowing that same space to appeal to players of vastly different skill sets, from beginners( I saw a young kid and his mom enjoying them) to blue-level players.
I played the pro setup and then the inbetween, "Landtroop Links" while i was there. I didn't bother with the standard layout but from what I saw, its among the easiest simplist set of holes that I have seen.
Landtroop, the middle-difficulty alignment, is closer in difficulty to the pros, but it isn't great. There are some weird holes and lines and often feels crammed in. But it should be a nice step-up for beginners who want a bit more of a challenge.
It is on the blue layout that the course truly bring something to the table. If I were to return to Pirate Point, I would probably play the blues twice instead of any of the other layouts. There aren't any standout or spectacular holes but they are all pretty solid, especially i you have the course to yourself.
The tees are also nicely done. I'm a fan of brick or tees and these work just fine. Some of them are oddly shaped, but that is because the different layouts may be shooting from the same area, but in different directions.
The highlight of the course might just be the bag stands. Some of the nicest looking that I've seen.
Cons:
When I played here there were two duos and two other singles on the course. Even so, I often had to wait on someone playing a different hole of a different layout, as there is a ton of crisscrossing between the three layouts. From some tees, the light paths cross as many as seven other fairways. Basket six is used at least five times from different tees.
I also often found myself following the next tee signs and walking directly into the line of fire. This may be the most creative way I have seen of packing a multitude of holes into an extremely small space, but if there are a few groups playing on this course, people will inevitably walk through firing zones.
Whereas a lot of the blue holes are fine in themselves, it hurts how much other holes and layouts will affect your day. If you are someone that does not like waiting this might not be the course for you. For example, if you walk up to play the blue hole that tees off from standard one, (blue uses this hole twice) and slow newbs are teeing off, you will have to wait for them to finish one and two, because all of that space is in your line of fire.
Other Thoughts:
<<Note for Pro Course>> This is important. The pro course is labeled on the blue tags on the bag racks for the first six holes and on independent tee signs for the last three. This is because 7-9 reuse tees that were already used in that layout but it is confusing if you are not expecting it. I tried to start on pro 7, played three holes, then looked all over the course or additional blue tee signs. If you are aware of this ahead of time, it is not a problem. Just remember, there are not three holes not associated with any layout, but there are three blue tee signs that look like they might.
