DJames -
Hard to believe you've missed our discussions on this course.
I think I probably agree with ATLRay's overall feelings on the course, though my specifics are probably quite different.
I found the front 9 okay. A little bland to me, with a little too much water (note: personal bias here against water - think it's way overused on golf courses, mostly just for picture purposes). There were probably 3 or 4 holes that I really liked on the front. If I had to guess, I'd say 3, 4, 7 & maybe 8 - my lack of memory probably says a little something, as I have no problem remembering holes on courses that I love.
I had similar feelings on the back 9, except instead of water the big challenge is severe elevation changes. This worked on a few holes, didn't work as well on others. There were again maybe 3 or 4 holes I really liked, others were okay. Again guessing, I'd say 12, 13, 16, maybe 18.
If I had to sum up my feelings in one sentence, I'd say the following: I really liked the green complexes all around the course, but it's way overpriced to me, relative to other public courses in the area.
If granted a second sentence, I'd say: LOSE THE FAKE ANIMALS! Good Lord, you're in fairly rural western PA, we have plenty of real wildlife that wanders our courses.
P.S. No one outside of the parties involved would put this course in the top 10 public courses in the country. Not trying to be mean, just honest.
