Carved from forests of towering oaks and pines, Old Corkscrew Golf Club exhibits all of the superior characteristics that define Nicklaus Signature courses. The absence of houses around the golf course adds to the secluded and peaceful feel that is provided by the dense thickets of trees that surround it. Jack Nicklaus himself was a prominent presence throughout every phase of the course's construction, incorporating well balanced holes that vary in direction, look, and feel. Proper club selection will be greatly rewarded on this golf course. The fast-paced, undulating greens sit up to 20 feet above the lush, rolling fairways, which can create some tricky pin placements if you're not careful. Old Corkscrew Golf Club's fairways are rather generous, but they are framed by carefully sculpted bunkers. Several large ponds come into play on nearly every hole and there are also numerous sand traps strategically placed along the greensides.

Not a good value

Corkscrew is a very good course.

However, unbeknownst to me, the greens were top dressed with a whole lot of sand.

Which I understand.

That being said , you shouldn’t charge $175.

Give the customer $30 off or something.

Anything.

Tee box selection

I am a 14 handicap. First time I played this course I played from the white tees and the course kicked my butt. This time I was playing alone but got paired up with a couple of older gentleman who were playing from the green teas. So I decided to play along with them. Made the course much more enjoyable for a mid-level handicapper like myself. There was about a handful of tees it were the same for white and green anyway. The greens were super fast still two days after a senior tournament was played there and I was told by the staff the greens were double rolled and were even faster then. It was still quite a bit of sand top dressing left on the greens which affected the appearance but not too much of changing the potting surface. Overall, a very enjoyable under 4 hour round.

Beautiful Course with Punishing Layout

I played this course on a windy day, and it was a very punishing golf course. Very well designed and makes you think about every shot. Favors ball-striking much more than length, but the tips at 7400 yards will make anybody a sad boi. The greens are fast and undulated, and tough pin positions made some two-putts from the center of the green a difficult task. Pace of play was as expected for their peak season. I would not recommend this course to very casual players because of the difficulty and price, but a fantastic course for more experienced players.

Great Golf Course

1ST time playing this course. As we rolled up the gentlemen who took our clubs asked if we had ever played the course. We told him no..his response..Oh Boy..with a grin. We then proceeded to go in to pay, again we were asked if we had ever played the course..and again the response was Oh Boy..now wondering if we were gonna get beat up we just chuckled. Once we got on the course, we enjoyed ourselves on every hole with every shot. Fun, challenging and one of the best I have played in the area. I recommend this Golf Course to anyone. We will be back this October to play another round. Looking forward to beating last years score.

A must

One of the most memorable rounds of golf I've ever had. A spectacular golf course carved out of a beautiful piece of land. I'd go so far as to call it a golfer's paradise. The absence of residential homes makes it that much more enjoyable. This course has been on my list for over a decade and I'm glad I've finally been able to play there. I hope to return soon.
