- The park itself is very nice, the grass was mowed and everything seemed good. There were pavilions, basketball courts, tennis courts, and bike trails. Seems like you could spend a lot of time out here doing stuff, especially with another course nearby (I did not play Ace Run).

- Teeboxes for the most part were good, tee signs were reasonable, there were some inaccuracies, but I wouldn't say wrong. They seemed old and worn, but they did their job. Nothing is incredible, but nothing is bad.

- The layout seemed fair, I never felt like there was too many left or right turns. There wasn't anything that really excited you about it, but it was just a solid course.

- Navigation was alright. For the most part there were arrows, but I'd say it was easiest to just follow the path around the basket. Other that 8 to 9, there really wasn't much difficulty going from a basket to the next box.

- #9's basket is the only feature that really stood out. It is up on a mound, probably 15ft in the air. You will have to go up a small staircase and up more dirt to get to the basket. If you make a run at it and miss, it is not staying anywhere close to the basket, if you are being serious about playing, you should probably lay up, but really who wants to do that?

- I think anyone who has played in wooded course or even just walked in woods would know that spider webs are everywhere, especially if you are the first on the trail in the morning. However............Oh My Goodness.........I have never seen that many, that big of spider webs on one course. I know there is no way they go out and spray bug killer everywhere or anything, so I know they aren't going anywhere, so just watch yourself. The tunnels (which is 14 of the 18 holes) are probably going to have a large spider web somewhere. I never face-planted into one, but feeling on edge all the time was a little too stressful.

- All the reviews have said something about it, the walk from 8 to 9 is absolutely a disaster. When you walk up to #8 basket there is a path to the right, follow it, you will have to use the Five D's of Dodge ball to make it, but it's there. There is no signs, no arrows, nothing. Limbs are hanging into it, grass is grown into it, just not good.

- Once you get to #9, the sign says it's 363ft up and to the right. It's not, it's slightly left sitting up on a huge mound. I don't know if it was just changed after the sign was made, but it's unfortunate that the clear signature hole (the only one that had any lasting impression) has an incorrect tee sign.

- Most have also mentioned the open ending holes. But I do not think all the open holes are bad. The first two (#13 and #14, I think) are two right to left shape shots. You have to make it around trees and can easily miss into woods. #18 is a long open bomb, it isn't special but it isn't a birdie unless you have the arm. However, #17 is dull. 270ft, nothing in your way. It took me 2 seconds to look at it, pick up my Roc, and throw it right under the basket.

- It is a solid course, that if you are spending a few days here should be somewhere on your list to play. I also PA Davis and Magnolia Park (in St. Martinsville), and I preferred those more. I didn't play Ace Run or Heymann Park, so I don't know where to rank it compared to those. Again overall solid, but it isn't all that memorable.

The more diverse of the two courses on the site, Duzee is a bit longer but only because of the three or four open shots out of the trees this is something that was not present at Ace Run.

I would say when it comes to "Ace Run" this course seems like it would be easier to get aces on. The wooded holes are shorter and less wooded than Ace Run which should make this course have overall lower scores.

For the most part the course is easy to follow. There are colorful tee signs at each hole as well as a big course map at the beginning of the course, which is not needed but is definitely nice.

The transition from 8 to 9 is rough as you have to walk down a LONG unmarked path to get to nine.
Speaking of Hole #9...
I am not a fan of the monstrosity that is the big pile of dirt with the basket perched on top about 15' off the ground. It would be sort of fine if the hole was a straight shot at the pin but there is a big dogleg that it would be hard to get to the mound in one. I feel as if it was gimmicky and not needed, but if it stays in people's minds then I guess it is doing it's job correct.

This course can be played faster than Ace Run but to get the full experience out of Acadiana Park then it is recommended to play all 36 holes. Play Ace Run first; you will end by the start of Duzee and once you get done there you will be back at the parking lot.

This course is for players who love tight and technical. It plays immediately into the wooded area throughout the front nine, and only coming back out to breathe in the open areas a bit on parts of the back nine. It still felt quiet and secluded, which is impressive since the day we played there were probably 100+ college kids yelling and screaming by the basketball courts, and you didn't even hear or notice them when you're in the trees.

The course is laid out well, and easy to follow, although a few holes transition back on each other. Also, watch the #13 to #14 transition - it's very easy to turn right to #17 instead of into the woods to #14. It would be a shame to miss, because I really enjoyed this trio before opening up to #17 and #18. Note that #9 pro pin (There are two pins in place on this hole) feels a bit gimmicky, but I personally thought it's ballsy to build it up the way they did. I haven't played to a pin like that since playing in the Colorado Mountains.

The park itself has basic amenities to keep people happy and looks to receive a fair amount of traffic. This isn't a big deal, because the course plays away from these areas, and even when the course does open up to the grassy holes, only #18 plays relatively close to the park action. There are concrete tees and quality signage, albeit a bit short for my taste. However, it's a short course so run-ups aren't a big deal. Another thing about Duzee were the open holes in the park area where the grass was so well-manicured it was like playing on a ball golf course fairway and definitely worth a mention.

BEST HOLE/S: #1; #9; #15; #16

Although this course is longer, I felt that the drive lines were more open and effectively easier than Ace Run. Not considerably, but I you have a substantial amount possible birdies and some real looks at getting an Ace. However, even though the course is longer, as with Ace Run - it would still be considered too short by most advanced players. However, this is the perfect course to hook a novice on to improve their skills and build their addiction to the sport. Note the transition from #8 to #9 - it was well marked, but you have to backtrack a bit.

Also, on a personal note - I think someone switched the names of the two courses. This was the easier course with much more chances at an ace. Having played Duzee first, I finished thinking, if Duzee was that open to an ace every few holes then Ace Run should be a breeze - not so much. My suggestion is play Ace Run first, and then go hit Duzee for that ace.

WORST HOLE/S: #17

It took me longer than usual to write my Acadiana reviews, because of all of the courses I played on my mini-road trip this was the park I would have loved to have hit again. I personally liked Duzee just slightly better for the higher combination of open shots mixed with varied lines and interesting layouts. Having said that however - both courses great fun for a causal round. There's enough elevation to keep things interesting, and it's just hard enough to make you gun for bird be but happy with par. I would definitely make the stop here when traveling through Bayou country. Two quality courses in one location and surrounded by a million Cajun places to eat at afterwards - sounds like a winner to me.
