The blue tees are only 400 yards longer than the white tees; however, those extra 20 yards per tee box will make a big difference in your score. I don’t recommend the blues unless you are less than a 9. Holes #10 thru #13 is the Amens Corner! Although hole #13 is only the #5 handicap hole as a short 362 yard par 4, the 2nd shot into this green is very penal, if your yardage is off. In ending, hole#18 is a legit 463 yard uphill ending hole which we give you much discussion on the 19th hole. Take in Julie’s restaurant in Amherst Center when your finished. You won’t go wrong.
Would travel: 60-120 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Bargain priced based on quality and competitive area pricing, Ranks with the best in this price level
