HICKORY HILL COUNTRY CLUB

The Mississippi coastal plain delivers a test that favors precision over power, with narrow fairways carved through towering loblolly pines that punish errant drives without mercy. Water hazards snake through seven holes, most notably the signature par-3 16th where prevailing Gulf winds make club selection a guessing game even for single-digit handicaps. This Robert Trent Jones Sr. layout rewards strategic thinking and course management, offering members a thinking person's golf course that gets better with each round.
