Brand new course demands every shot in your bag. Clear, well-designed holes offer a mix of open, tight, wooded, hyzer, anhyzer, long, medium, and blind-hole shots. Tee signs are top-notch with "next tee" indications on the signs and at the baskets.
Watch out for raspberries/thorns -everywhere. Once this course sees some traffic, the rough will be more manageable and eventually pristine. GO PLAY THIS COURSE!
The first five holes are fun. Holes six through 11 are horrible. These six holes are in the middle of the woods that were cut out to create these holes and they only cut out about a ten foot wide path for each hole which wouldnt be bad if the holes werent so unpleasant to play. They were very unimaginative when creating these holes some of them are extremely long about five hundred feet. Which again is not bad except the design of these holes is horrible and most the time you are searching for discs instead of playing. After finishing each of the "woods" holes its a super long walk to the next hole. I think it took me about an hour and a half to play these six holes because the woods are so thick and discs are hard to find. not fun at all. after hole 11 though things got better except i was extrememly tired from the woods and the long walking distances between holes. will not return to this course. There are better courses in the area so i will not be wasting my time.
