COUNTRY CLUB OF JACKSON
🇺🇸 Jackson, MS, USA
Designed by John Fought


The Country Club of Jackson features two eighteen-hole courses, with the Dogwood and Azalea nines forming one of the club's primary routing combinations. John Fought, a former U.S. Amateur champion who studied under Robert Trent Jones Jr. before establishing his own design practice, created these layouts as part of the club's modern golf offerings in Jackson. Fought's work typically emphasizes strategic variety and playability across different skill levels, incorporating natural landforms and native vegetation into his designs.
The Dogwood and Azalea nines take their names from flowering plants native to Mississippi, reflecting the club's setting in the southeastern United States where these species thrive. The courses navigate terrain characteristic of central Mississippi, with rolling topography, stands of mature hardwoods and pines, and water features that come into play on several holes. Fought's routing likely takes advantage of elevation changes and natural corridors to create variety in hole character and shot values.
The Country Club of Jackson serves as a private club in Mississippi's capital city, providing golf and social amenities to its membership. The combination of the Dogwood and Azalea nines offers a full eighteen-hole experience that reflects Fought's design principles of strategic interest and aesthetic integration with the surrounding landscape. The club maintains its courses as part of a broader tradition of private club golf in the region.
