Holler in the Hills

[Goatman]

Holler in the Hills is going to reopen under new management. They are planning on using it in the Edmonson County Open in March. I'll post more info as I get it. This is what I have to share now. https://www.facebook.com/events/515681315617802/

The new owner wants all reference to the former owner removed and I don't blame her. I would help her if I could, but it is currently listed as extinct. That will have to be updated in the future and I have no idea what that process is.

So the course is opening beyond just the tourney?

 

[Cgkdisc]

Suggest changing the name to maybe Holler in Two Hills or maybe Holler in Twin Hills.

This is my understanding.

Would they have to change the name or just have reference to the former owner removed?

No need to change name but perhaps it would signal people who remember it that something new was happening there.

Send a PM to timg. I'm sure he'll work something out for them.

Agreed: the new course is likely to have redesigned holes and features, and would come back as a new listing, with the old layout remaining extinct. If you're interested, you can see how that works by looking through the course listings for the Miami U course in Oxford, OH, as it's now in its third incarnation.

Thank you for sharing this goatman. Holler is in my top 5 courses played.

I had filed this in the back of my mind as never going to be able to play again. and a piece of me had died inside. This news has awoken that piece of me, it's still a little groggy and not quite sure where it is, but it's awake and damn excited to get out and experience life again! Can't believe this is happening, maybe I'll have to make it to bg ams again this year, or maybe we'll just make a special trip to visit the goatman and the holler!

Great news! One of my absolute favorites!

Thanks for the update, mang!

Half way to being ready. Bowling Green Facebook page has a post about it. 8 holes with basket and/or pad work and some fine tuning on 2 other holes.

Bowling Green is a great midway point to stop when I drive to Atlanta. Really cool that this might be open again.

Hey Greg, do you know if the course is the same as it was before closing or has the design been tweaked at all?

 

[Goatman]

Holes 1-18 are the same and holes A-E are no longer in play.

 

[Goatman]

There was some logging done when the course was closed. Here is some recent footage:
