The Good
This is a very nice course that provides a big challenge to anyone not hitting the fairways. The landing areas are narrow and as mentioned by everyone before, the heather is brutal! The greens are tricky on very dry, especially with a couple of pins on small mounds, but they putt very true. I really liked the planting, especially the combination of the grasses.
The Bad
Other than the pano, there was one tee box that was slightly tilted and I wasn't too fond of the size of the tee markers. That's it!
Overall
Dismal Hollow a definite keeper. Keep it out of the heather or you will have a dismal score! I think this is one of Spencer's best.
