My Review 

Firethorn is a scenic and challenging Pete Dye course on the eastern edge of Lincoln. Every hole is unique. It requires decent shots to keep the ball in the fairways or first cut of rough; beyond that is deep fescue. A small creek strategically winds through the course and several ponds with Dye's infamous railroad ties wait for errant shots. Play Firethorn if at all possible!
