Hammond Hill

You can definitely tell this course was built on top of old hiking trails. The first few holes feel like they were just squeezed in there but it really starts to become more thought out as you get further through. It's got a great variety in elevation, trees vs. open holes and left/right/straight shots. You'll feel like you've been hiking when you finally finish so bring some good shoes. The long tees are very nice cement slabs. When I played the short tees were vaguely marked with a stick and t ...

The long tees are very nice cement slabs. When I played the short tees were vaguely marked with a stick and the short baskets were not in place at all. Overall it's a great course but very out of the way for most people.

This course is about 40 miles straight west of Lansing. Has excellent layout with ups and downs, Hyzer and anhyzer. There is a posting at the start of the course where the tees are playing from and to. October is Long pads to Alternating Long / Short pins and played tough still. They change up the Tees or baskets once a month and post this on the sign by hole 1. Make sure you read this sign before playing. There is another way to tell which pin you're throwing to.

This course is about 40 miles straight west of Lansing. Has excellent layout with ups and downs, Hyzer and anhyzer. There is a posting at the start of the course where the tees are playing from and to. October is Long pads to Alternating Long / Short pins and played tough still. They change up the Tees or baskets once a month and post this on the sign by hole 1. Make sure you read this sign before playing.

There is another way to tell which pin you're throwing to. There is a hole for a small cable / wire to be tied through for A pin and B pin on the bottom of each sign. Which pin has the cable tied through the hole, that pin is the pin placement.

The traffic was very light which made for comfortable golf. We never got bored of any of the shot selections. It seems knowing the course would make your score alot better. Some of the shots are kinda blind so you're not exactly sure what line to take. Knowing the course would make me change my shot selection and would probably save a few strokes.

Another pro is that the first 9 bring you right back to the parking lot so you can go get something to drink if you ran out on a hot day.

I guess this course was worse in the past according to the previous reviews, but it seems to have got alot better. The tee signs are not vandalized and give good representations of the hole. The rough didn't eat any of our discs but did cause us to look for a few minutes sometimes. Play was very smooth.
Cons: Hole 1 is very steep and could be dangerous to climb down for some people. Some might consider the pads to be too short but I think they were just fine.

There is no water on the course but some would consider this to be a pro.


I lost a Yellow Buzz Discraft Elite x Custom Stamp Jbird on hole 17 or 18. I didn't actually lose it I think I just left it in the fairway. If you find it and email [email disguise] that would be awesome.

I had to play my round here on a time crunch. I was almost head over heals for this course on the first hole. There must be a trick to navigating that hill, but I tried actually walking down the fairway and was lucky to stay upright. Super dangerous... Other than that, I really enjoyed this course. The long tee pads are all concrete and even though signs showed a second basket location for each hole, it looks like just the short baskets are in the ground. There were a great mix of elev ...

Other than that, I really enjoyed this course. The long tee pads are all concrete and even though signs showed a second basket location for each hole, it looks like just the short baskets are in the ground.

There were a great mix of elevation changes and fairway widths. Some holes were narrow enough that you had to really focus on accurate drives. Others were wide open so you could really rip it.

I do question the measurements on the signs. Every time I would read the distance, I would pull out a long driver and then I would find the basket and switch it out for more of a control driver.

Fun course, I plan to play it again when I have a little more time. If there is a trick to navigating hole one, I'd love to hear it.
