Pickaway Country Club
About
Pickaway Country Club is known for its welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Jack Kidwell, a local architect who designed this course and many others in Central Ohio, utilized his familiarity with the terrain but still kept each golf course distinct. Pickaway has an interesting layout that will test your shot-making abilities and strategy with narrow fairways lined with trees and small, fast greens that are difficult to read. Water hazards come into play on five holes and there are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout. There is one particularly difficult par-5 hole that requires a 250-yard drive over a meandering creek. Although the golf course offers a fair amount of challenges, they are balanced by a number of wide-open fairways that have ample space.

Fun
Its a shorter course but the smaller size greens will keep you very modest with how fast and undulating they are. As well as some tight dog leg fairways it makes for a good, relaxing, fun day.
Great late March day on the links
There are about 3 areas at Pickaeay GC where you have to concentrate on what hole you are playing for fear you will tee off on the wrong hole and before you know it you are out of sequence and on a busy day, you cannot get back into the order of foursomes. Just beware and make sure you are on the right tee box. The course is in great shape and the staff are wonderful... I love the rolling hills and spruce tree setting. The course has a challenging layout and is in a beautiful setting near Circleville. Golfnow always is running some reasonable pricing making the travel well worth the effort.
Birthday was great on the links
Spent a great day at Pickaway CC with my Bro, step bro n law and one of my closest friends. The weather was ideal; sunny maybe 74*, little wind.... the course was fine. Some of the greens have experienced some spotty non grass areas, some of the tee boxes had some weeds taking over and the traps look like someone made an attempt to groom them. The traps had little sand in them. Overall I was pleased with the course and pace of play, which is all I could ask for.
District practice
Played here only because of practicing for districts. 2 man scramble started 45 minutes before our t time. Had to wait until all of them teed off before we could. No mention of this scramble on golf now. Our golf cart pulled too the left and seemed to have a mind of its own. What a joke of a driving range!!!
Need course knowledge
We had a threesome today. Course was not busy, so pace of play was not an issue. We had been here several years ago,, but still found the course routing to be somewhat confusing in some areas. A couple blind tee shots to a pond at the bottom of a hill. Greens were OK, fairways and area around greens could use some help in places. Apparently some old bunkers have been abandoned and that area was worse than being in a bunker.
Easy course to walk
Because the holes are so close, the course is very easy to walk. Some holes have Tee boxes hitting as you go to the next hole. #9 is a blind shot off the tee and #18 if you hit it long, you will go into the lake. I will definitely play this course again.
Not onw od my favorate courses
Tee boxes had not been mowed (long grass).
Fairways were fair, but greens were excellent.
Cart paths were teeth jaring rough. Many front and back nine holes shared the same tee box area which led to two groups congregating in the same area. All ponds were at least partially overed with Algae. The course just did not have an overall pleasing appearance. Will not play there again.
Very nice greens
Very hot and humid day but the course made up for it. Nice fairways and greens.
" Home town" country club feel.
Arrived to find somewhat confusing parking arrangement but easily managed. Somewhat distantly greeted at check in. Course nicely laid out with some challenging approaches and greens. Value for play is fair. Lunch providers experienced, young golfers and easy conversationalist. Enjoyed round after initial intimidation. Would recommend.
Worth the drive!
The course was awesome!. Twist, turns, elevation changes, etc. on nearly every hole. Nice greens.
Enjoyable
Play here quite often and enjoy the course each time.
Check farway layout before hitting your drive
Had a great round course in great shape. We have played here before. It has been a while forgot layout. This can get you in trouble.
course we were informed went public 2009
Even weather of late wet, and carts on path only was required, course was in good shape, greens rolled pretty well, overall very good time. some of the tee boxes and fairways due to rain could be mowed and I would like to try the course later this year
Nice course.
This course is very playable....usually it is very maintained, but with the fall....there were a lot of leaves that caused problems finding balls. I feel like it is a really nice place for women as they have forward tees....I would play here again.
Needs mowed
This is the second time I have played this course. The first time I played here, I really enjoyed the round. When I played this time, I was disappointed in the tee boxes and fairways. I realize that the season is about over but the tee boxes and fairways really needed mowed. I teed off a few holes and the grass was taller then my teed-up ball. Once in the fairway, there were spots where the grass was just as tall as the ruff. The staff was really friendly and I do really like the course lay-out. I will play here again!!!
