White/Blue at Mountain View Golf Course
Played On 06/28/2015Mountain View Golf Course Critique
This course appears to have been designed and maintained by a blind cave troll, most likely from the Mines of Moria. The tee boxes feature ankle-high fescue that makes teeing up your ball or even contacting your ball an unpredictable challenge. Also, while on the tee box, make sure you aren't standing in any sand, as this is conducive to slipping and spinning out of your shot. If you've managed to cleanly strike your ball out of the hazardous tee box area and find the fairway, it's a good idea to play the "lift, clean, and place" rule during your round. The fairways display uneven cuts of grass and dried out dirt patches resembling scabs on skin. From the fairway you will undoubtedly have a gap wedge or less into the greens on all par fours as this course barely exceeds 6100 yards from the tips. Once on the green, you might find yourself wondering, "Are these greens Bermuda or Bent grass?". The answer is, "it doesn't matter", because the greens exhibit blades of grass that have a length greater than any encountered before. The feeling of putting on a shaggy carpet will really test your ability to lag putt and your resolve to use counter intuition , as you must ignore the apparent break in order to reach the hole. In summary, if you want to play a joke on a friend or gain an appreciation for you local course, Mountain View Golf Course is the place to be.
