By hole review : front 9
Shooting from the white.
Total cost for twilight is $23 ouch!
1- one of my fav here. Straight shot par 4 to boost the confidence levels. Tee box could use some work, green is ok nothing special ATM.
2-really rough tee box, nice fairway. Pretty much a straight shot to the green with a hill and some sand on the right. Green is in really rough shape, patchy and bumpy.
3-a 90degree dog leg right par 5 with water for those who dare risk cutting the corner. Pretty boring par 5. Fairway is I'm decent shape but has a pretty big burn area near the 100 yard marker! Stay away. Green is better then the first 2. O find this a rather simple par 5. Should be a birdy for most.
4- 203 yard par 3...pretty simple. Don't go right and you'll stay out of the water. Idea is to hit the green or be short and you'll be just fine. Tee box is patchy just like the others...they can't seem to get these tee boxes right. Pretty uneven. The green tho! Whoooo a win. Great challenging green. Love it!
5- I like this hole, it basically a corridor of trees straight to the green. Sand on the right and left, I hope your drives are straight! Nice hole, I've always enjoyed #5
the tee box is once again laking. From now on I'll just say tee box to refer to its level of poorness. I rather enjoy the green. It does have alot of deadness right infront of the green but that's why you just hit the green on 2 haha.
6- once again a straight par 4 with sand on either side...anybody catching the pattern? Tee box....in good shape!!! What a tough pill to swallow when youre on the green, putting to save par and you have giant gash to go across, I call that a gimmy if your close to the hole. There are 6-7 big gashes I'm that green for some odd reason, the rest of the green is nice, I don't understand. Damn such a shame.
7- straight par 3 with really no trouble. A little bit of sand on the left. Tee box is in better shape then the rest! Nice! Awesome green. Challenging!
8-NEWLY DESIGNED HOLE! 238 yards? Really short par 4 yes? Tee box? Really?!
Tough look at the green which makes it tough to hit the green in 1. What kills it is the enormously tough sand traps waiting for you at the green! Holy! Beauty sand traps! Beauty green! They did good fixing this hole! Challenging green! I guess that's how they figured the par 4. Best hole of the front 9!
9-nice tee box and a really nice fairway! Challenging at the last 100-150 yards as it pulls a 90degree dogleg right. Tough to go over because of the numerous trees. Great green, most likely because the club house is there.
OVERALL:
-1 for really tough tee boxes...
-1 for being overpriced...$50+ dollars on a weekend? No thanks, I'll play indian lakes which is in great shape!
-.5 for not offering anyone memberships? What kind of course doesn't offer that, only offers bundles with a small discount.
I'll come back half way though the season to see it's improvement, for now I'll stick to well priced courses roughly the same distance away from edmontons core. read more
