Great course period
Playable yet challenging. Maintenance was top shelf. Greens rolled true. Multiple tee boxes for every level. Backdrop with the football stadium on game day is unbelievable. ONLY recommendation is keep the clubhouse open until all players have made it in.
Phenomenal course.

Great layout.
Not too long, but this is a shot-makers course. You have to the in the right spots to score well. The green were receptive and rolled perfectly. Avoid the long grass areas and don't go long over the greens and you should do well.

Great fun
I've wanted to play here for a long time and now I know why. The course was in great shape. The price was fantastic. The starter let us start early. What's not to love. The course was also in very good shape.
