Don't be fooled by this golf course. Just because it measures only 5,400 yards doesn't mean you're going to light up the scorecard. You still have to hit the shots and if you try to be aggressive with a lot of these short holes you'll end up making a big number. A few things to note.
- Some of these greens are big. You short side yourself on a putt and you can have a 50 footer... a possible three putt.
- When possible, go for the iron or fairway metal off the tee. Just like any golf course, best to keep the ball in play.
- You can play for less than $35 with cart. That's a good price.
One thing to note is that this course is in great condition during the summer. Home to the Hampton Amateur that gathers some of the best talents in the area, they do a good job of getting this course in good shape for the tournament. For the average golfer, you benefit from a nice course in preparation for something bigger than just regular play.
Definitely a fun course to play that can test your true skill despite being a course 10-20% shorter than most courses in the area. read more
