Other Thoughts:
Redbone Road is an interesting course, and worth playing if you're spending a little time in Vicksburg. I liked a lot of the holes here...1 is a nice 215 anhyzer, 2 throws across a deep gulch, 4 has a green that slopes away from the tee which makes for a great landing zone, and 9 throws across a little gulch too. Hole 7 is very tricky for being only 183 feet long...miss the fairway left and you can end up way down in the bottom of a valley in an OB pond, so scores from 1-6 are possible on the hole and that's a great scoring spread.
I'm not sure why this course is rated so high. It's definitely fun, and possibly one of the most challenging 9-hole courses under 2000 feet that anyone's designed, so that's probably why, but it felt to me like playing in a backyard rather than a full-blown course. I can see some players getting excited about the elevation changes too, and it is a nice woodsy and pretty property.
