Most holes have two pads and two baskets allowing you to mix it up if you get bored easy. Course has a good mixture of short and long holes as well as open and tree filled holes. Well taken care of for the most part.

This is a more technical and challenging course than Carroll Marty. Many holes have two tees and two pins so you can mix it up if you want to. Most of the front 9 is heavily wooded, but if you can hit the line, it's pretty rewarding. Miss, and it's hard to recover. On the back 9, it opens up a lot, but still fairly technical. Only the last few holes are what I would call "open".
A lot of times, this course is a few weeks behind on getting mowed, and watch out for the stinging nettles on hole #5 on the right!!! If you get in them, they burn!
Carroll Marty is more fun, but this is more technical. With both courses being only a few miles apart, Ames has a couple of great courses that offer a good mix and challenge. You have to play them both!
