History
The original course was created by “Frisbee Dan“ Berman and was known as the Green course or OG. This course was removed when the city of Jacksonville took over control of the property.
The next evolution of New World was when Phil Arthur and Will Schusterick came to lay out the “Infinity Loop”. This was the brainchild of Phil Arthur, which features the 18 hole Championship Red Course, which starts and ends at the clubhouse. This course was the site of the 2017 and 2018 DGPT championship along with a DGPT silver series.
The Infinity Loop includes the 9 hole Blue course that funnels into an area that includes Red 9 and White 10, which allows a player the opportunity to play Red-White for 18 holes, Blue-White for 18 holes or Blue-Red for 18 holes.
As of 2025 there is no other course in the world featuring this uniquely original design.m
In September 2025, Matt Johnson and Charlie Booras designed 18 shorter holes on the Blue-White Link, making the course more accessible to players that do not have elite throwing distance (which includes the vast majority of players).
Ultimately, Matt and Charlie plan to do the same thing for the red course, the longest and toughest course on the property.
The property itself encompasses 450 acres of abundant wildlife, old growth trees, and well kept grounds.
