I played the course a couple of times before reviewing to really try to find the positives in everything. I enjoy the fact that this is the only course in the general area that you can throw a driver on. There are a couple of shots that are fun. That’s unfortunately about the extent of my positives, as it feels like you throw the same shot over and over again on a bunch of holes. It feels like a few holes are forced in, that shouldn’t be there. Holes 6,7, and 8 are all poorly designed, in my opinion. 6 is a short chip shot with OB 15 feet on every side of the basket, after you’ve been throwing drivers. Just not a great flow. Hole 7 is a 550 foot hyzer with no clear line. I’m okay with holes where par is a good score, but this hole is bad. There are a lot of complaints about the water holes, I understand that’s not in the club or course designer control, so it is unfortunate, but I know people traveling through that have no affiliation with the locals will go into the water to retrieve discs, and if that is something the college may pull the course for, unfortunately, that will happen sooner than later. The course is a step in the right direction, but I think hiring a professional course designer would’ve been a good step. Putting concrete pads down before anyone actually played it was a bad move, in my opinion, as it’s now set in stone, and there aren’t many changes you can make. I was highly looking forward to this course, and will still play it, but to say it’s not a let down would be a lie.
