They don’t know how to handle golf now tee times just yet due to it being a military base and cannot give golf now access to tee sheets. Our tee time was “hand entered” 35 mins after we actually booked it online and had to wait. They were very apologetic as they were figuring it out. Would recommend booking on the phone.

The Army’s best

Fort Jackson has two courses that are both open to the public. The Wildcat course is the longer and more difficult of the two. There are no water hazards but there are many bunkers and significant elevation changes. This was the third time I’ve played there and plan to again soon.

Tee times were double booked. I guess the starter was paid today but I’m not sure what they were paying him for. Nice guy, but a sack of potatoes could have done a better job.

Can’t wait to play again

Beautiful golf course, the ball sits up well everywhere you hit it. Nice approaches to the well kept greens, and look very nice, love to play again.

Never played!

FYI! I showed up at this course while GolfNow took my money in advance. There was no starting time, and the course said they DO NOT work with Golf Now. 2 calls to Golf Now seeking a refund has resulted in me being placed on hold for over an hour with no one picking up the phone.

Best Military Base Course! Fantastic Greens!

I can't rave enough about the high quality of the greens! I was able to throw darts at the pins and they stopped on a dime. Great value on the Hotdeal only $24 plus tax/fees. Driving range and practice area was in great condition. A great chance to get a few swings in before the 2024 WLD competition @ Fort Jackson. A+ will definitely be back!

Wildcat - Thursday 10:33am Tee Time

The Wildcat course was in great shape. Both fairways and greens in excellent condition. Probably one of the better courses in the Columbia area right now. Great conditions for the price!

A fine experience

You stop at the main gate of Fort Jackson to get a pass into the base. Takes 15-20 minutes. Then off to a very nice course, played the Wildcat course, in good shape, w friendly staff, well kept greens, and a rolling setting thru the pines, not unlike Augusta. Go and have fun.
