Sunday evening round at BB Owen
Koons and I got in an evening round at BB Owen today. Play got bottle-necked at #9, so we played the front 8 again and threw 17 and 18 to play a full round of 18 holes. Threw 1 over today. Drives were a little wild to start, but my game came together well. Doubled on 18 because I threw on the wrong side of the mando. Oh well! Good round. Hope to get an evening round sometime during the work week!
BB Owen Course Description
Pros:
(1) Course is conveniently located inside of Dallas city limits.
(2) Course is designed on a relatively small land area, and can play very quickly.
(3) A variety of throws are useful: hyzer, anhyzer, rollers, etc.
(4) Course will challenge you with distance (shots over 350 and uphill), but also challenges your control (shorter shots with ace potential).
(5) As primary city of Dallas course, many very skilled players use course and hold minis on the weekends.
Cons:
(1) On front and back nine, fairways lay side by side, so drives with poor control frequently interfere with another hole's fairway.
(2) Course can be very crowded (only good course inside city limits), and can play slowly due to congestion.
(3) Woods off of fairways can be very dense during spring and summer. It's possible to spend some time searching.
