Redbone Rules !!! 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 30, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Separate tee boxes/lengths serving ALL Disc Golfers. A fun & relaxing course with enough trees to keep a player comfortable even in 100+ degree weather. Although there are only a couple of "long" holes, the "shorter" holes pose difficulty with the creative shots necessary to birdie them. I had a GREAT time.

Cons:

The only negative is that there are ONLY 9 holes. However, an industrial player can ALWAYS make their own tee boxes and/or play the course backwards. Use your imagination...

Other Thoughts:

I had the opportunity to meet the owner of the house that separates a number of the holes. He put in the course and is a TRUE LOVER of the game of Disc Golf. Of course I am "old" and have already forgotten his name. Regardless, IF there were MORE individuals that loved this game as this homeowner, I predict that there would be MORE players involved in OUR sport because of the fun & camaraderie as opposed to the competition. Don't get me wrong !!! I LOVE competition. The bottom line is: ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO HAVE FUN !!!!!

Most unique 9 hole course that I have ever played! 2+ years

Reviewed: Updated: Played on:Mar 20, 2009 Played the course:once

Pros:

Two different tees on every hole. Wooded with elevation on some holes. It actually has a signature hole,#2 and the picture doesn't do it justice as you can't really see the elevated beauty of the shot. Most 9 hole courses that I have played and some 18's are parks with a bunch of baskets thrown or crammed in after the park was designed which most of the time produces total crap. Not this one. This is a 9 hole disc golf course with no tennis courts, baseball fences or WALKERS. It is Herman Cochran's backyard which is not really a yard. It has trees, elevation and a POND! The course is well designed and makes good use of its limited acres. It is just under 1900, but only a couple of the holes feel short and you will be to blown away by the fact that you are playing a 9 holer like this. Herman moved here from the midwest in the early 80's. The number of existing courses was nothing like today. Lucky for Herman, he bought a house with a "backyard" like this. No charge to play and no permission needed. If Herman is home he will probably play a round with you. He did with me and I will definitely go back again. There is a place to sign your name, hometown and date that you first played it. You will never play a private homemade course quite like this one.

Cons:

If I was alone I might have a little trouble navigating. Not very long. only 9 holes.

Other Thoughts:

Herman gave me permission to post his numbers to contact him. Just call him and ask him his address so you can just look for the mailbox. People were playing there today. They pulled in his driveway and immediately parked on the left. If not you have to park on the shoulder of the road. There was room today for me to park also, but I didn't know that it was OK to do so. Two numbers. 601-638-2451 & 601-631-1500. Enjoy this one of a kind course you will definitely tell your friends about. One more time, you do not have to call for permission to play. It is just past the fire station on the right. There is a rust colored disc catcher (hole3) you can see from the road. His house and driveway follow immediately.
