Pros:
Very hard to think of any. If this were a young person who built this in their backyard, it would be a 4 star. However, if this course is to be graded on what a disc golf course should be it's a complete fail. If you're close and it's all you got go for it... otherwise it's not worth your time. I honestly couldn't think of a positive point to give it.
Cons:
Signage, No Complete map. No Score cards. Aside from a small sketch on the top of a pvc pipe, sometimes labeled with the hole number, was a flight path, hole placement painting. There are arrows painted on the baskets pointing in the wrong way..... -1 point
The tee pads are small and tough to find from the previous basket. The layout has you guessing where to go next. The baskets are homemade, (which is awesome for a home course, but tore a 1/4' out of my putter, and I stopped trying to put after that.) If you do hit the barbed wire chain, it'll probably not stay in the undrained, water barrel buckets. -.5 , -.5
Design - To be a top course, or even average, you must understand what OUT and IN means. Hole 9 and 10, after searching for, are about as far from hole one as you could plan. The flow of the course does not exist, until you get to 15. The different throw types also don't exist. I cannot see giving any thought to giving points on creativity or difficulty of this. - 1
Benches, Trash, Water and Bathrooms... There are a few benches and FILLED trash cans, as well as trash all around the course. (Do people in Mississippi not know what a trash can is). So, I'll give the only half a point I can think of. -.5

Other Thoughts:
The fairways do not exist. You should not have to spend 10 minutes looking for a 350' drive 20' away from the basket.
DO NOT TAKE YOUR DOG (OR CHILD)!!!! MY DOG CUT TWO FEET WALKING THROUGH THE FAIRWAYS.
The course doesn't look like it has had a work day since it was installed. I would not suggest going here unless you live close, or want to have a horrible 3 hours following your disc through thorns and confusion.
There is a mail box at hole on for lost discs, which I thought was great, but still not worth any more points.
So, total .5
Go to Shepard State Park instead.
