Burnet Woods

Kudos. After the renovation of baskets, teepads and the addition of the back 9, Burnet Woods is now one of the most enjoyable courses in town. The original nine was an acquired taste, with some absolutely classic looks, like the downhill bomb on old hole one, and the blind ace runs on old holes seven and nine. The new nine faces the obvious challenge of plopping half a course onto preset terrain and forest, however you will find some really nice workarounds going up, down, across and right into some of the steep hills. The one tournament that gets held here every year is probably plenty, I don't see this being considered anything of a pro level course, or even much of a challenge making par. What Burnet may lack in difficulty and variety, it makes up for in character and outright playability. The rounds I've played here with two or three buds takes just over 90 minutes, and doesn't feel like a total slugfest like Mt. Airy and Johnson Hills. If you haven't played since the start of 2022, I heavily suggest a revisit to the NEW Burnet Woods
