First Time Playing

Excellent value with the discount

First time playing here. I can understand why people would say that this is target golf. Potential for a few lost balls. A couple tee boxes were a little rough. The greens were a bit slow but that was ok with me. Pace of play for a Sunday afternoon was good enough at 3hrs 55minutes.

We had a group of meathead weightlifters behind us blaring obnoxious rap music, yelling and swearing the entire round. No ranger. No beverage cart.

First Time Playing

The course is very unique. It's away from the highways and busy streets to make for a quiet experience. No homes on the course, felt like you were "up north". The layout requires you to be accurate off the tee with a variety of clubs - lots of doglegs on the back 9, hole #9 has a split fairway. Greens were heavily sloped - felt like you were playing mini golf on some putts where you had to go up and down a hill.

This was my first time playing the course, it was very confusing going from hole to hole, there really needs to be more signs. Multiple times I ended up on the wrong tee box, and other people were coming up to me asking where certain holes were. Because of the target practice layout, you really need a GPS on the carts to plan holes, but the carts were old with no GPS (or USB ports) and not easy to steer (power steering was weak). At $58 for a mid-week tee time there needs to be GPS in the carts. No water on the course, no drink cart.

Played from the tips, it was only 6436 yards but that's because of the target practice layout. I really enjoyed the challenges with the wetlands, doglegs, and greens, however hole 14 from the black tees needs to have the overhanging branch cut down. I had to hit a closed faced punch 4 iron off the tee. It's still really fun to play a course where no (2) holes are the same.

Grass driving range, large clubhouse that could use updating. Bartender was also the starter/ranger, could have used more staff. Conditions were good - grass was cut short, greens ran smooth (#8 was the only one that had any issues), greens were slower than most courses.

not a beginner's course

most of the course is in great shape. Some weeds in the fairways and a few teeboxes were quite hardened.

This course is quite long and very challenging, but there are a few holes that can be more easily accessed.

One par only for me, but I still enjoyed it.

Extremely difficult to putt well here. Very slopy and undulating greens. Rarely a straight Putt. Very challenging.

Long day

The range has no markers for distance. The course was in decent shape but the greens might be the slowest we have ever played on. The course is very short which is inviting to older and newer players at 6000 yards and some change. The pace of play was brutal. Almost 6 hours to play 18 on a Monday, Tee off was at noon. Bring a lunch, it will be a all day event.

Pace of play was horrible

Me and a group of friends decided to play this course on Monday April 22,2024. Two of the guys we played with had never played this course before. Before our round started we were telling them how much we enjoyed playing here. Well, 5.5 hours later after our round of 18 nobody felt this way any longer. Each hole we played we were waiting on the tee box 10-15 minutes to tee off because of slow play way ahead of us. Each one of us stated we won’t be coming back. Sorry Cattails, it just took way too long.
