I only gave it a 3 for rating because of the suggested no "grade inflation." Its a fantastic little course, but simpler than others.
Pros~~
Shorter drives for newer players.
Only thick woods near the first 4 holes.
Last 5 are open/mature trees for no disc loss.
Extremely flat, not as technical as others I have played.
Cons~~
A seasoned player might find it too easy?
Hole 9 (far tee) should be a par 4, its 465 feet!
Not as technical as others I have played.
Overall~~ Very enjoyable. I am a beginner/intermediate, and felt challenged by the mature trees, yet encouraged by the openness because i didn't have to search for my disc on a poorly aimed drive.
Had a great time here, can't wait to go again!!!!
