Despite the low grade this course has some positives. New DGA Mach 7 baskets. Decent tee signs. Some of the holes (2, 5, 7, 8) are decent holes. However, the amount of fairway sharing and tees too close to baskets make this a strange course. I would think three groups would be the max you would want on this course at one time. Holes 4 (about a 170 degree RH anny) and 6 (about a 160 degree RH hyzer) are silly, short holes. Hole 9 could be good by moving the tee for a straighter drive. Currently it is a 530' double dogleg with an errant tee shot going toward the walking path. There are a couple other abrupt LH or RH turns on some holes. Not sure if the designer had space limitations but this could be soooo much better.
