Played On 08/03/2019Golfing in the Dust Bowl
Dirt cart paths throughout course. Expect to be covered n dirt by end of round. Gas carts and long drives between holes. Rock Hard and many bare spots. Target golf is not much fun when you have to guess if your wedge shot will bounce 10 to 40 yards after it lands. Trying to hit wedge shots around greens is like chipping in a parking lot. Remember Blue Heron's conditions?
Layout: 9 holes in the open with little shade and 9 shaded holes that run along the river.. Those holes are nice but their design becomes redundant: dog legs with straightforward tee shots and then second shots to a wide open green. Not much risk and reward.
Advice to course: Ditch the dirt paths. Either pave or remove, except for tee and green. Aerate the heck out of everything. Grow the rough longer to soften off target shots and allow for wedge shots. Plant some trees around tee boxes on open 9 to create shade for carts.
