New Albany Links Golf Club
About
New Albany Links Golf Club sprawls across gently rolling hills covered with meandering creeks, mature trees, and native grasses and wetlands. There are also a number of lakes throughout that come into play on several holes. The golf course is a fair challenge but it prides itself on its playability. With tees ranging between 4,800 and 7,000 yards, the course accommodates a range of different skill levels. The layout features tree-lined fairways and strategically placed bunkers throughout. New Albany Links Golf Club's 12th hole is one of the course's most memorable. It requires a long drive and an approach that carries past a long bunker and a pond to a narrow green. To the left is certain punishment but a tough up and down waits if you miss right.

Lots of sand and water
I loved this course. Great value andin good shape for march. I wish i lived closer so I could play it more.
Has potential but several downfalls
The course layout and difficulty is good for all types of golfers. However, I was disappointed with several features. Primarily, the greens were in absolutely terrible shape, several spike marks around the green, making it near impossible to get a true roll. Bunkers also in terrible shape, extremely firm sand, was more like hitting from a cart path than bunker. The scorecard or hole indicators on the course did not show an outline of the holes, so a first time player was totally guessing on some blind or semi-blind tee shots, such as #6.
Challenging and Fun!
My buddy and I spent some time in the tall grass at New Albany Links. Mostly because of our skill level but some because it's a gold mine for golf balls. Trust me if your not in the fairway your in sand or tall grass. But it's a blast. Will Return Soon!
good pace
Nice track, bunkers were nice I was n my share of them . Course is nice you just have to time ur t time right it can b extremely slow at times.
A little rough, but it is winter! Great value.
Played Dec 3rd. No tee markers and a little rough condition. Overall pretty good for wintertime. $14 for round with cart is a great deal. Played this course several times and it has a nice variety of easy and difficult holes. Finished last 5 holes with 4 pars and a birdie so I guess I'll be back!
Private Feel on Public Course
This is a nice course. Not too difficult but certainly challenging especially if you do not hit the ball straight. Not much open space off the fairways on most holes so there is no playing your 2nd shot off of the neighboring fairway. You will be in the woods, tall grass, or in someone's backyard if you spray the ball around. Fairways are usually in good shape and soft. Look for deals online and it is a good value as well. Nice clubhouse with good food and drinks afterward. Even in November the course was in good shape.
well maintained course.
Tough course. requires you to be accurate off the tee box. Well maintained.
This course has great design.
This was my first experience on this course. The greens and fairways were exceptional especially for October. I will absolutely play this course in the near future. I would recommend this course to anyone. It was truly a test and a delight to play. I am looking forward to the next time I play it.
Thanks,
Chet
Fun course to play
Course is a lot of fun to play, some challenging holes that make you think, some where you can just bomb it away. Course is always well taken care of and the greens where running very smooth and true, Get a chance to play it, do it. You'll probably end up going back again.
This course has great features and nice club house.
Great course setup and was in great shape. Club house is nice and staff was very friendly. Will play again.
Excellent Golf Course
This is an awesome community golf course. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Greens are moderately fast and the bunkers are kept raked.
I would recommend for anyone to play this course. It's a great deal for the money.
You better be able to putt!
Staff could have been more attentive, especially for a Saturday morning there was barely anyone there, but maybe just because of the OSU game.
Nice shape!
Course was in pretty good shape. Greens were true and fast.
