A pretty worthwhile stop on the 5 - Tom Pearce Park

chosenchange · #1 October 30th, 2009, 01:11 PM

My friends and I have played the he** out of this course and think overall it is pretty nice. Usually some good people playing out there. The best time to play is in the fall cause early summer holes 3-5 are mosquito filled and summer days are 110. 2 dollars to park and a pretty long course with good obstacles. Should play it through if ya drive by for sure!!

I logged my first round at Tom Pearce this past Sunday morning after enjoying the Rogue River on Saturday. The Course looks great, I dig the new baskets (front-9), keep up the good work!

I bumped into a few locals who told me about some recent basket problems/vandalism. What's the deal, what's been happening?

Are there any active fundraisers or donation options to help with the back-9?

I had a chance to play this course last week during my travels south and am really glad I did. Great course, good mix of trees and open, short and long. I was fortunate enough to run into Danny Jefferds who just may have been the best course guide ever, not to mention a hoot to play with. This course has been officially added to my list of "must play when in the area" courses.

TP, with it's brand new "Ducks" look, is definitely a must play course and Mr. Jefferds is definitely a classy feller.
We're all lucky that Danno was already in his 60's when he started playing DG.

After playing TP again with all the new baskets and placements I realized why this course has always been high and now higher on my list of cool courses.
It's a course where smart/par mindset golf is a must.
Also it's only minutes off of I-5.
Good job to all you GPDC movers and shakers!

As most know T.P. has been blossoming before our eyes. I make bi-weekly and weekly visits and every time it is being improved. As of yesterday they poured new tee pads for holes: 11, 14, 17! Thanks for all of the hard work guys.
