Late season typical play. Fallen leaves make it hard to find your ball. Could have been mowed better. Some greens suffered die out this somet and we're rough.

Rural Surprise

We weren't expecting a great course in the middle of farm country; but, we were surprised by the great shape the fairways and greens were in. The layout was also a surprise in that it is varied, interesting (including more elevation changes than expected), and pleasant to view. Some tee box locations aren't obvious - a few more signs would be helpful. Two holes run tightly along highway 34.

The fairways were without brown or bare spots - full healthy grass. The greens were fast and smooth. It appeared that they had been rolled recently. A few had been scalped in places by the mower so I'd guess they're not always cut so high on the stimpmeter. One of my golf partners complained about how fast they were, but after making multiple birdie putts, he developed a smug, happy look.

We'll be back!

This tee time was on a HOT DEAL and resulted in me purchasing the annual GOLFPASS.
