tee boxes-6.5- I look it the look, up keep, and lay out of the tee boxes. i thought the lay out was pretty good. i know its hard since the course does have a number of trees, but they over hang on the back boxes with makes you have to tee it up on one side of the box where i wanted to go on the other side. Also, they weren't cut when we played and i hate that.
greens-7- Greens are in pretty nice shape. Since they let the public play they are used a little bit more. Also, since the club is semi-private they are a little more unjulated than a regular muni course. So, reading the greens and picking the right line is much more critical. Also. the edges of the green just fall off. so suggestion, when in doubt just hit for the middle of the green and do not go after the pin if its to the right back or left of the green. The ball rolled pretty true sometimes it was hard because of fall starting and leaves were everywhere. messed up one birdie and par putt.
lay out- 7.5- I thought it was down really well. It gave challenging and also straight forward tee shots to use your imagination. I like that it was designed like a golf course should be there. I hate it when someone just wants a golf course and doesnt put much thought into it, but it seems like they did here. Not a long course a lot of short holes in all of the pars very few 400+ par 4's. I was pretty satisfied with it. There are trees but not a lot of trees to totally destroy your round if you find yourself in them. a well balance of trees of help fit your eye. Sometimes I thought there should be some more along the fairway, but trees were pretty perfect amount.
Price/value- 6.5-8. The greens fee is 27.50 which should be just right i feel. If they wanted to they could go as high as about 36 i feel and that would be great for getting the course in really great shape. Which i feel they should since they do call themselves semi private. If you go to golf now you can get the course for 27.50 with cart and tax included so can be very worth it.
Overall-7.5- I judge this based on would i go back again and again. I really enjoyed this course. Its not hard. It was a 70 on the handicap index so plays 2 under. Nothing tricky about the course. Not long at all and you dont have to play driver if you dont want to. You can play strategy if you want and still have 6 iron or under no problem. The greens are find and i kind of liked the challenge of reading the greens, maybe that is why i putted pretty good. Since it is a semi private course you can tell in some areas of the course. I would like it to get even better. It is hard being in Wisconsin i know, but it was a very nice course. I highly recommend.
