Best Bang for your Buck for a Par 3.

I tried this course because it was the only 9-hole Par 3 option. The online cost was $13. The pull cart was $5, though it was a bit rickety. No /food/lunch service, though the owner shared it was his dream to cook there:”It just didn’t work out.” Nice gentleman. The holes are short, 125 yards seemed the longest with one water hole. Yes, I found it! Dagnabit.

Great Tune-Up Center

Greens and “fairways” are in great condition for tgis chip-n-putt learning center - tee boxes are all scabbed over and have very little grass. They did a nice job of introducing elevation change and strategically positioned traps with good sand to hit out of.
