It's not bad. It's one of the cheapest courses around. Kind of like two different courses in one. Front is more of a prairie style, and the back is more traditional. It's short, but the front has a decent amount of trouble and you have to plan your next shot. The back is straight and short, but VERY small greens and more trees. It's a decently fun track, and the price is tough to beat for 18 holes.
 
@drp How do you like those Burner 2.0 Irons? They're cavity backs? I was looking to upgrade my irons and TM might be the brand I go with..

I do.i have been a part of online forms since AOL and and before and feel comfortable with them.i just don't have the time to devote to tweeting and face booking that events like these deserve. So maybe illiterate was the wrong word

outside of forms I just don't enjoy social media. I have tried numerous times and don't really find it entertaining. .
 
Completely understand that brother. The good news about this event is its a single tweet. One won't have to do it at the event or anything else.

That's just not fair top you guys or Wilson staff though. Things like this deserve to be talked about where people can see it!
