Lots of potential and absurdly challanging

We played the first 9 from the third longest tees, (black diamonds) until we found the last page in the yardage book that lists the following:

Green Circle: Rating: 65.1 Slope: 118
An enjoyable course of average difficulty. Reccomended for those with handicaps 21+

Blue Square: Rating: 69.3 Slope: 125
Donald Ross would play from these tees- easy bogey, difficult par. Handicaps 11-20.

Black Diamond: Rating: 72.5 Slope: 136
Equate the challenge to a TPC course. Handicaps 1-10.

Double Black Diamond Rating: 74.9 Slope: 149
Comparable to a US Open course. Reccomended for those with 0 handicaps or better.

Needless to say we played the back from the blue but probably should have played from the greens. Very few easy holes except for a couple 200+ yard par 3's, everything else has multiple water (and other) hazards per hole, blind shots, elevation changes... Bring a bag of balls, if you go OB there is no chance at finding your ball.

Conditions are sad, this could be a beautiful course but the tee boxes are largely dirt and crab grass, fairways were a mixed bag and rough hadn't been cut recently but that may be due to all the rain they have had recently in combination with the hilly terrain is most likely not condisive to a mower.

I will probably play here again at some point but in present condition I don't think its worth much more then $25-30
