About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6864 yards
Slope 121
Rating 72.8

Raymond Memorial Golf Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones, is a rare find, which includes twin par-3 holes. Each par-3 hole is actually two parallel holes, complete with tees, fairways and greens. The idea behind this feature was to allow play to move at a more reasonable pace by allowing the faster players to advance ahead of the slower foursomes.

From the blue tees, this course plays to 6,864 yards, with a rating of 72.8 and a slope of 121. The large and contoured greens are raised and sloped from back to front. Sand bunkers protect the front side of all 18 holes.

Starter showed up late

We tee’d off 45 minutes after our tee time because the starter showed up late. Course is in shambles. Trash is overflowing at every hole. For some reason there’s no hole signs so you have no idea what hole you’re on or where to shoot. More duck poop than fertilizer. All that being said, it’s a budget course and you have to expect the absolute bare minimum, which we got

A nice March, 2021 day on the links

Along with my step bro n law enjoyed a wonderful weather-wise day at Raymond. I remember this course from long ago. Matched up with a friendly two-some with f father and son. The course was in fine shape. The traps could have been played but had not been attended to, after all it is early March in Columbus, OH, winter is not over yet. It got up to mid 60’s and sunny with a little wind to contend with. Course was in fine shape with only white tee markers present. We bounced around between white and where the gold tees would be. We are not fans of close to 400 yard par 4’s anymore....Raymond was in very good shape. They are practicing COVID protocol with one to a cart unless you are both living in the same household. Friendly staff...

Windy weather
Walked

I played for the first time on this golf course.

The reservation included a cart, but was told to walk.

I'm glad I brought my cart.

It took 3 hours to walk 18 holes.

Today's score was 44-42.

Fall Play all day

This is the ;4th city course of Columbus I’ve played and have been impressed with all for the money. Wide open fairways give way to some challenging bunkers. Make sure you eat there if you like German they have Schmidt’s. An institution in this city I will come back.

Cart Availability

GolfNow said cart Availability for the selected time. Drove all the way to the course to find out it was walking only. Staff was rude as well. Horrible experience.

GREAT FOR THE PRICE

The course is well managed. There are some holes under repair, but they have created new holes in their place. The staff is friendly, and the regulars Were very nice. The greens are very challenging .

Nice course

Mostly open, with pretty wide fairways. Nice layout. Pretty long. Some bare spots, but it’s July in Ohio so that’s par for almost any course. Overall, a very nice round for a great GolfNow price. I’ll definitely play there again.

Decent Shape

Course was in decent conditions. A few sprinklers running throughout the course. Ultimately a nice place to play. Don’t forget to buy Schmidt’s food before, during or after your round.

Poor Tee Box Management

Got the earliest tee time available (6:36) because the last couple of times playing here. Pace of play is ridiculous (5hrs-5 1/2hrs). Upon arrival was told a twosome (Walking) would be placed ahead of us. No carts were ready or clean. Needless to say we were waiting on every tee box. After making the turn the starter/clubhouse sent a single out on 10 in front of us.

Very unprofessional. Would recommend going anywhere else but here.

Wish I could give it zero stars, but not an option
