For the average golfer, this is a short-game course that will do wonders for letting you know EXACTLY how far you really hit approach shots, and what clubs you realistically should be using in different circumstances. Play withOUT tees, and LEARN. It is narrow enough, and the greens are small enough, that one's attention needs to be focused to get the ball on the green. Really a wonderful way to learn the approach game. Great for beginners, hackers, and average recreational golfers. The Jr. World Golf Championships use this short-course for their younger competitors, so it's certainly not a pushover of a course.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Not Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
