Yes...3.3s is pretty close... I played a fairly good round of +6 as an 870 rated player. It's there for you if you want it. I left a few puts out there.

Yeah and as a 870 player a 1000 rated guy would have to beat you by 13 which I don't see happening on a course you have to get lucky on to get birdies.

It will be interesting to see what sort of SSA this course generates.

chip and putt course, there is no real line to a basket, except for 1 or 2 holes, just bring one putter.

No its more like a throw.......whack (hope it doesn't kick to far), throw hope it gets close and putt for your three.

# 12 and #18 are can be aced. #12 is a straight , tight fairway 225 feet to the basket. #18 is a 200ft anny shot. I took a friend out there for the first time, and he missed the ace at #18 by two feet. It skipped right past the basket.

Nope. still backwards... i laugh every time someone new goes out there with us and turns and faces the bush right behind one and says something like "wow they weren't kidding about this course it is really wooded...where's the basket"

That about sums it up! 18 holes under 320ft and only two holes you can get to.

Those are the two that are the easiest to ace. The only hole that does not have a great line to the basket is #3. The rest can be reached if you know how to work your discs.
