Opelika Sportsplex

This course offers some of everything. Elevation, water, open areas and tight alleys, dog legs, guarded baskets etc.. Great track! Extremely well manicured, no trash laying around, the local throwers obviously take pride in the course. One of the few courses of the 60 I have played that has zero vandalism. Great job Opelika. Hole twelve tee pad does face the wrong way, but given the great graphichs on the sign at the pad, it is very easy to see where the track goes. You will need your p ...

This course offers some of everything. Elevation, water, open areas and tight alleys, dog legs, guarded baskets etc.. Great track! Extremely well manicured, no trash laying around, the local throwers obviously take pride in the course. One of the few courses of the 60 I have played that has zero vandalism. Great job Opelika.

Hole twelve tee pad does face the wrong way, but given the great graphichs on the sign at the pad, it is very easy to see where the track goes.

You will need your precision game here. Tunnel shots, strategically located tres, small windows of opportunity all require technical shots. Even the red tees have some holes with distance such as a few 400' and a 600 'er.

Did not like the large jagged rocks guarding basket two, can be very rough on your plastic.

Tee pads can be a tad dangerous for long runners, as they are all set 6" above grade without feathering. Pro tee tossers must seek out Red pads to see signage. Pro tees are rubber mats, and I would think soon to be concrete with signs, given the pride locals take in the course.

Leagues are beginning on Sundaya and there are Friday doubles that started up. Be sure to play here if your in the area, you will not be disappointed.

Neat course. Part of a huge "Sportsplex" That is really new. Very clean. This course is very technical and tight, and very short. Must shape your shots here. Signage is great, except for the fact that they are on the red rec tees rather than the blue pro tees. Makes you have to walk up to reds, then backtrack to blues; just inconvenient if you're one who likes to see hole layout. The baskets are really nice. I forget what they are, but they are definitely legit. A few holes don't ...

Neat course. Part of a huge "Sportsplex" That is really new. Very clean. This course is very technical and tight, and very short. Must shape your shots here.

Signage is great, except for the fact that they are on the red rec tees rather than the blue pro tees. Makes you have to walk up to reds, then backtrack to blues; just inconvenient if you're one who likes to see hole layout. The baskets are really nice. I forget what they are, but they are definitely legit.

A few holes don't make sense. Particularly number 12, where first, both red and blue tee pads are somewhat pointed the wrong way. Your tee shot is completely blind where you say a prayer and throw it down a short slope to your left over a bunch of trees. This is a course you would like to have a guide with you.

This course is a nice change-up to other open "grip and rip" courses. Its the only one in the Auburn area, and a good one worth playing for sure.
