Richmond Pitch&Putt. Good & Bad
Played there a few days ago to check out. We typically play Marshview P&P once per month.
First, really good to have more choices in TV for short game practice.
Richmond was very nice. Loved the rolling hills and contoured greens. And of course in great shape. Much more “challenging” than Marshview.
Nice little addition for those who prefer tees off the mats, there are small plastic tees holders for Left or Right inset into the mats. A few holes had three different mats for the holes over 100yards. Much of the course is close and adjacent to the Pike, so… noise. Nice that every green had arrow signs directing to next hole.
The only “Bad” IMO was only a few benches along the course. But the main negative was that the course, 18 holes is laid out where #9 is very far away from the starter and parking lot. So unlike Marshview if you want to play only 9 and you’re back to the Shack — you’re out of luck and need to walk all the way back. We did just that, as two of us were not feeling well. Hassle. Long walk back but now we know.
Other than that the course is great fun.
