Mocheez's review: "Some people complained that hole #9 (in the horseshoe position) is way too difficult to birdie... I like that design because it rewards good course management. A controlled shot will set you up for a manageable par while those that go for the unlikely birdie will find themselves in jail and scrambling for a bogey."

rhfh n inertia and ride the flip and skip for the easy 2

Zone fh off the tee. This is a course I should have play 20 times by now and I've never managed to get there.

 

[chevis]

flare off the tee, then a likely ibex upshot

 

[Innova63]

Going to go with my beat SSS 149g Wizard,

or if I am really feeling it, I will throw my 71mold MTA style and boomerang it around the corner.

Well you should find time to get here. Bird's Ruins is my favorite course by Madison. Really awesome mix of terrain and shots. A must play IMO.

Oh, and Maverick RHBH anny, then whatever I can to get uphill to take a par. :wall:

I haven't played Birds since it expanded to 27. Wasn't this hole redesigned and combined with another hole?

Ditto on a LHBH

I believe it was. I think I played it when it was 2 separate holes but that would've been years ago. There is a tee pad down by the bottom of the "U" of the hole. I remember throwing off of that before. It's right by the edge of the pond/cattails. I don't know what it is about Bird's Ruins, but I play it more than the other Madison area courses. I just love that course. There are some cool holes on the new 9. I will say that it does play through the lower, swampier section of the prairie though. A few of these holes will gobble up discs.
