The Legacy
About
The Legacy Golf Course is one of Robertson County's must-play courses. Opened in 1996, it is not as old as some other courses in the area but the designer, Raymond Floyd, took advantage of the existing mature woodlands spread throughout the lush, rolling hills. At 6,755 yards, the course is seemingly short but it is narrow, and be prepared to face troublesome hazards almost everywhere. It is notorious for making balls from even the most slightly errant shots disappear. It is a tough but fair challenge. The golf course starts with a tricky par 5 with a bunker on the right followed by a par 4 that requires a 200-yard carry or you'll surely be faced with trouble. The back nine at Legacy G.C. is slightly less difficult but there are still plenty of hazards as well as several blind shots.

A favorite in the region
I always play here when visiting Nashville.
The course is well maintained and plenty challenging for a mid handicapper like me.
The pace was great too.
Hi, studeku. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing The Legacy.
This was our first time playing the course and our last round of a long weekend trip to Tennessee. This is a very fine course and we will definitely be back again. It's not quite as nice as Greystone or Gaylord Springs, but it is certainly worth playing again. We really enjoyed it and we will likely play all 3 courses again on our next trip down south. Very nice staff!

SLAMMED!
This place was overall pretty good. Course is very challenging. Lots of inclines and declines with a few dog legs. Decent greens (FAST), tight fairways. Staff and pro shop were great. Only knock I have was the pace of play. It was a log jam from 9am on. People waiting for other people on every hole, and that slowed everyone. Took us just over 6 hours to play a round with 3 players due to the constant stream of people.

Great course, tough but fun layout. Only complaint was all the tee times were filled with groups of 2, so pace was slow waiting for groups stacked on top of each other. Old guys didnt want to pair up, but wouldn't let us play through either. Would be nice to see the pro shop group people for a better pace.

Mickey Mouse Greens
Greens are ridiculous to the point of absurdity. Every green is divided into three tiny tiers with extreme slopes between each tier. It is virtually impossible to two-putt from one tier to the next, and it is virtually possible for any one but a scratch golfer to hit the correct tier from the fairway more than 1/3 of the time.
I average 32 putts a round but had 5 three putts and one four putt at the Legacy.
Thank you for your review.
Poor members
I know the greens had just been worked on but the people playing ahead of us did not know how to replace ballmarks there was multiple greens where I replace mine plus 2 or 3 more as a golf course superintendent that is unacceptable.
Challenging course
Raymond Floyd designed course is a challenge for any level player. Greens are the best around. Pick your line and roll the ball to the hole. Greens putt true and consistent. Staff are super friendly. Always a great round that has many challenges.

Bring your 'A' game and your patience
This is a great, challenging course that requires creativity and shot making skills. If you are just wanting to grip it and rip it, this is not your place. But if you're looking for a place that will require good golf skills, then this is what you need to try. But beware: because of the challenging course layout, pace of play can be terribly slow as people search for their ball in the hazards. Plus, most do not play ready golf which makes for long wait times between shots. Apart from that, it's a beautiful course that you should check out!

A second course
Raymond Floyd designed golf course has shot-making fairways off the tee box and shot-making approaches to tight pin positions. Green undulations can be a challenge if you but your approach on the wrong side of the pin.
Greens put true with some small green surfaces needing some care.
Service staff inside and outside are superior to most courses in the area. Ample warm up range and chipping green for practice and preparation for your round.
Will return. Would highly recommend to any golfer with tee bixes for any level player.

Keep It Straight
Excellent course layout with trouble on both sides of the fairways. Greens were very fast and sometimes hard to play. The course overall was very well put together. For a weekday the pace of play was very slow… Took us five hours to play 18 holes at 10 o’clock in the morning. Would’ve been nice to have a drink cart or snack cart every so often while we are out. I will highly recommend to friends though.

Great course
Greens and fairways in excellent condition as always when I’ve played here. Pace a little slow but not bad we were a twosome behind foursomes so expected. Not to windy and the sun wasn’t beating down so very nice.
