Review of Hartmanns Deep Valley Waterhol...

First time there, and it is a nice public course! Not quite manicured as a country club or municipal course, but roughs not too rough, fairways well defined. Greens are really fast! Not as burned out as other courses in the area. Everything is fairly straight, and trees don't get in the way unless you put them in the way :). HOWEVER, the back 9 is full of water! I swear, you go over the same pond 2 or 3 times. Holes 10 thru 14 or 15 have water traps that are in play...you have to go over it. 18 has water to the right that is not really in play unless you insist on hooking the ball to the right. Everything is clean. Carts in good shape. Cart paths on most of course. Didn't spend much time in the pro shop, but looks like they got everything you need. Don't think they sell clubs or do grips, but not positive. They have a bar and restaurant, but didn't try those out. Maybe next time.
