FarmLinks at Pursell Farms

Wow. This course is unreal. I was on a trip playing on the RTJ and had an off day midweek and found this course on golf now. It was in just as good if not better shape than any of the RTJ courses. It's a very fair/forgiving course and the signature par 3 hole is fantastic. If I am ever in the area again I will definitely play here. Well worth the money and the drive.

I’ve always heard amazing things about this place, and the course is even better than the hype. It’s designed so perfectly into the landscape, and the conditions were immaculate. Hole #5 especially is one of the most amazing individual holes I’ve ever seen. The staff friendliness and accommodation was also second to none. It’s a public course, with a country club level of service.

My only complaint was pace of play. The course was on a 50 minute delay and was cart path only. It took almost 6 hours total to play 18, which was the longest round I’ve ever been a part of. That was also with almost no one in front of us, and no one on our heels. The delay was understandable because of heavy frost, but it really didn’t feel like it needed to be cart restricted beyond a 90° rule and no fairways. This course isn’t well designed for walking, so it was impossible to pick up the pace.

Aside from the pace though, 10/10. It’s an unforgettable course and I look forward to coming back next time I’m back in the area.

Unbelievably beautiful course! Tee times are spaced out so pace of play is good. Course is very playable but can be long depending on the tees.

Absolute amazing course, would recommend to everyone go and visit. Course is amazing with spectacular views.

Just an amazing track. Beer is expensive from the cart so get it in the clubhouse. Also don't miss the Barrell of chilled apples on the first tee. Greens roll smooth and don't have much break to them. Just loved my day here.

I played a lot of nice courses and this is hands-down the best overall experience I’ve had between the quality of the range, the course itself and the friendliness of the staff.

The fairways are like carpet and the greens roll very smooth.

Definitely will be making trips to this course a tradition.

Always enjoy playing but could not if “TEEOFF” was. Not available.

Course is always in immaculate condition. Staff is always personable and accommodating. One of the best public courses in Alabama. Challenging but fair test.

First time playing here and highly recommend it. When people come to town to visit this will be the course I bring them to, to make sure they have a great time, enjoy the round, and be impressed from the drive in to the drive on 18.

Farmlinks is one of my all time favorite courses. I love the layout, it’s in awesome condition and the staff is unbelievably friendly and helpful.

Pristine course, not a blade of grass out of place. For the Course to be in as good of shape as it is in the middle of a heat wave shows me the care they put into it. Top notch practice area with courtesy TP5 balls. The course itself is a good challenge without being overwhelming. Not an easy track by any means, but you are rewarded with scoring opportunities for good shots. Just be smart about the teebox you choose- even the 2nd (Copperhead) plays about 7K yards. Only somewhat downside to my round was I just happened to come on a day where it was path only. Not a knock on the course but I would have planned a different day had I known prior. But if youve never played Pursell youre missing a treat!

The Beat Course in Alabama. The Greens are the softest greens I’ve ever played. The entire facility is first class. The staff are polite and the pro shop is superb. The greens are so soft and played pure and true. I cant give enough praise to this place. It’s A golfers Dream and a little slice of Heaven On Earth! Play FarmLinks! . . .

What a drop.....hole #5, the ball falls like rain drops from heaven......and the view couldn't be better! Excellent course, great condition and lots of fun. It was a long drive to get ere but well worth it!

Farmlinks is a totally wonderful experience from the time that you take your clubs out of your trunk to putting them back in. Let's start with the terrific lunch and wonderful service both in the dining room and then in the pro shop. It's clear that these folks really appreciate you visiting their facility.
And that course...what a great layout! Without a doubt, Farmlinks might be the most immaculately maintained public golf course that I have ever played! The greens, tee boxes, bunkers, and fairways were all pristine.
The course itself has a number of memorable holes, but 2 of the par 3's, in particular, will stick with you throughout your golfing days. The par 3 5th hole is one of the most challenging, and beautiful holes I've ever played. There are a number of elevated tee boxes to choose from as you peer down on a green that's some 175 feet below you. It's just spectacular! The par 3 17th hole holds its own to with a long carry over a lake to a smallish green.
If you get a chance to venture to Sylacauga, AL, be sure to stop and play Farmlinks!

The course is a hidden gem of golf around Birmingham. It's in the middle of nowhere on a sprawling property, but it was sure worth the drive.
The fairways were in better condition than the greens at Ol' Colony which I played a few days prior. It was well maintained and very playable despite taking on a lot of rain and being cart path only. That said we finished the round in a little over 4 hours.
Wide inviting fairways allow you to swing away from the tees, and if you get a bit sideways, the main penalty is the additional distance. really tough to hit one OB. The par #'s with huge elevation changes are fun, but so are the variety of scoring opportunities on all the other holes.
Great staff, Nice amenities, and perfectly maintained course make this a must play.
