fun spot

the front 9 is pretty fun with all different models of holes that provide a good challenge of shot type, but offers scoring as well. the back 9 has a majority of the same type holes and it pays to hit it strait because thats where the hole tends to be, strait in front of you a few hundred yards. the best thing about this place is that even if your normal shot shape is slice you can just go over to the next fairway and hit your ball back over.

If the shoe fits...

This course is great if you can secure a twilight rate. You can't beat $15 to $20 but the greens are in desperate need of attention. It's like putting over the Rockies. I golf here once a week because I live nearby and the staff is great. Other than that, the mantra holds true... You get what you pay for.

Challenging course need good course management

Overall conditions are great. The greens are a little rough, but with the hot weather I would consider them in great shape. Good course management is the best approach for the best experience. It would be o.k. if the nines were reversed for a year or two. Each nine presents a unique challenge. OUT is better for your iron play it plays a little shorter and IN is longer and better for great drivers to show their stuff.

Mission Trails Golf Course

It was raining a bunch on the day we played so conditions weren't great and there were puddles everywhere on the course. It doesn't rain a lot in SD, but one would think the course would be better designed for when it does even if not very often. Staff was fairly friendly, but I was on the phone a couple times with them to see if we could reschedule the outing because of the rain and I didn't get very clear answers. When we got to the course one of the staff said we could have taken a raincheck! Food is very limited. The views on the course are epic and most holes are challenging. Plus, the cost to play there is phenomenal. Can't beat the price compared to other courses around.
