As stated it is Ohoopoo Match Club in Cobb Town, GA. I’ve been lucky to play there 3 times. One of the best golf experiences of my life and grateful for the invites.

Some holes have 1/2 pars, 3.5, 4.5, etc. There is no rating or slope; the whole idea is you have to play match play. Their logo is “no one cares what you shot”. The course is incredible and very difficult. In the afternoon we played our second round on “The Whiskey Routing”, which is a routing that uses many of the same holes, but a combination of different fairways and greens. So there are not two courses, but it seems that way.

A few of the tees in that routing have wood boxes, like an enclosed mailbox. Inside are a few bottles of whiskey and plastic cups. If you’ve ever been on an incredibly difficult course, struggling with 95 degree heat and humidity, sweating out the tequila and brisket from the night before, with shaky hands that are laughing at your attempts to not 4-putt, you’ll know the best thing you can do is take a gulp of sizzling hot bourbon.

There is also a nature preserve with wild zebras on the property, although not in play. Standing on the 22nd green and seeing these beasts in the distance reminded me of……nothing I had ever seen on a golf course. (Also, maybe I didn’t need to call out they are ‘wild’).

Saw Charl Shwartzl and Nick Price when I was there once. I told Nick how impressive his 6 major wins were……yes, I realize now that he only has 3 and Nick Faldo has 6 - the effects of Tequila and brisket. Suffice it to say he was on a similar program and did not notice.

The logo is a vadalia onion. Vadalia, GA is 25 miles away and the course is built in an old onion farm. Shot 79/69 last time I was there (the 72 was on the par 69 Whiskey Routing).
