I managed to get out to play this past weekend in one of Michigan’s typical short-lived December thaws. The temperatures were hovering around fifty, and the air quite humid.
The best news is that I shot an 80, which is as low a score as I’ve had in quite a while. To be fair, however, the course is a par 67, and carries a 117 slope; it’s not difficult.
I was out there Sunday playing 18 between 10 and Noon. I agree with you that is was thoroughly pleasant. I almost ended the season with an exclamation mark when my approach on #18 banged off the flagstick. As it was, however, I couldn’t even make the birdie putt.
It is not an overall difficult course but it has its challenges. It would take a pretty good golfer to par all the par 3 holes. One better have a good short game as those greens are, for the most part, tiny.
