Today's Course Information and Score
The Lakewood Hills course has a wide variety of terrain, ranging from wide open to tight and hilly. Tee boxes are well-worn dirt patches, but are sometimes tough to locate. the course is laid out well, despite the criss-crossing of some of the shot vectors. If the course had been busy, it would have been interesting, as players would be crossing shots fairly frequently.
We began play at around 6:30A.M., on an empty course. Stu located the first tee and hole, and we proceded from there. tee boxes pointes us in the right direction, despite having to search for a few of the tees.
Several holes played very short, while two or three played very, very long. three strong driver shots were needed on two of the holes, just to get within striking distance of the hole. We hope to measure the distances next time out.
I find myself frustrated that these beautiful courses do not have any signage or markering to direct players to the next teebox or hole. Distance to the hole would be helpful, but not entirely necessary. I guess most of my frustration stems from the fact that on the first time out to a course, it's often difficult to find tees and holes without searching for them.
I very much enjoyed playing this morning. Crisp air, warming to about 65°, with a light breeze made for excellent play.
