1966 design by Pittsburgh Pirates teammates Dick Groat and Jerry Lynch. Strikeout, single, double, triple, home run?

For the price, and for being their only course design, I'd say at least a triple. But Dick and Jerry were family friends, so I may be a bit biased.

I'm not biased, its one of the best public courses in the state, but not easy to get to.

No pics of the course at the website. The on-site accommodations look homey and even I can afford them. Stay-and-Play packages: Jerry Lynch Three Bagger, Bill Mazeroski Double Bagger, Bill Virdon One Day Single.
