Look Forward to Next Time 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 28, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

Fairways were recently cut and the elevation changes made for some interesting uphill and downhill shots. There is enough signage to make it fairly easy to navigate the course.

Cons:

I would have preferred a course map. No benches at any tee pads. A couple of the tee pads could use a little work.

Other Thoughts:

I made the trip with a couple of buddies that have bigger arms than I do. As a short throwing left hander, I get the impression that most courses are more right hand friendly but the layout at Ashe Lake seemed better balanced. The course looked great and was very scenic. Overall I enjoyed playing the course and look forward to playing it again.

One of the best courses I've played. 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jan 24, 2014 Played the course:once

Pros:

This course is fantastic.

- Finding the place is easy enough as there are a number of signs directing you straight from the highway.

- Gravel teeboxes built with wood on every hole, multiple teeboxes on most holes, and the yardage are all provided in primarily good shape.

- Course flow is very smooth with directional arrows pointing towards the next hole on most baskets when needed. The next tee is most often quite obvious from the previous basket.

- Very clean with little to no trash or debris. As far as difficulty goes the course as a hole proves to be an intermediate challenge. (I managed to pull off a few birdies my first time around on what was looking like a "bad day.") Hole length averages around 250-340 with a few 425's thrown in. Nothing lower than 248. Pro tees add about 30-40 ft on each hole.

- Trees aren't in HUGE abundance but there are enough to make you rethink a few throws and go with the safe route. Water coming into play only majorly on one hole can be a pro for casual players. Overall a good challenge.

- Some holes make great use of the elevation.

- There is cement picnic bench somewhere on the front 9. Good place to escape the sun under the trees.

Also, there is no fee for the day. We didn't even see anywhere to pay, nor another soul in sight.

Cons:

- THORNS! Control is key on this course, unless you're willing to become Survivor Man and trek through endless thorn bushes and stickers. With that being said, wear pants.

- Water only being in play on around 4 holes can be a con for advanced players looking for a challenge.

- Not all holes had a set of Pro tees. We looked around and determined where we thought some could go.

- A few holes had maps of the hole on the PVC pipe stating the hole number and distance, but not on the ones that really needed help finding the basket. A few times we had to run down the fairway to find where we needed to shoot to.

- No bathrooms at all. Unless once again you favor playing Survivor Man for the day.

- One or two trashcans weakly tied to trees, maybe a few more could be beneficial.

- Along hole 7 there is a barbed wire fence along the left side, just waiting to eat your pant leg trying to retrieve your overstable discs.

Other Thoughts:

Overall a great course for intermediate players. Worth the drive if you're coming from Hattiesburg.

Nature course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Jul 10, 2020 Played the course:once

Pros:

Cool play to play.
Lots of trees to hit too.
No body was there to play with us, but that was cool.
Scenic with nature and wild life every where.

Cons:

Spiders. The big kind too. If you go off the fairway, thorns will tear you up. I was in there looking 4 times.
Not too many benches to sit and rest on. I only saw one trash can too.

Other Thoughts:

If you want to get away and play in peace, this is the place to be. We saw nobody while playing today. That was cool. If you play other places, people every where. Had a good time here.

Great Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 27, 2013 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Nice layout,mix of long and itermediate holes lengths ,most holes have 2 tee pads,signage, trash cans on several holes (took pics of each tee marker we played but missed hole 11 so I wont post distances until next time I play it) Also some elevation makes for added fun.
Great in and out.

Cons:

Water in play on hole 11& 12.(watch the trees on these holes because a riccochet can put u in the drink)

Other Thoughts:

Absolutely loved playing the course and worth the drive and if time allows theres Foxes Den @ Paul B Johnson park,Ducan Lake plus Tatum Trails (all 3 in Hattiesburg)
So if you got time you'll have lots of fun.

Home Course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Dec 24, 2012 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Course was not well kept up as of last spring but alot of work was put into it this summer. Ive played 7 courses now and this is by far the best. It is sucluded and has a nice layout in middle of woods. Some tough wooded fairways but not impossible to manuever through.

Cons:

The $5 fee is only con I find. I play alone alot and this can get expensive if I play multable times.

Other Thoughts:

Not far off 49. A must play for anyone passing through.
