The Golf Club at South Hampton was designed to give every golfer appropriate risk-and-reward opportunities that supply both encouragement to beginners and challenges for more advanced players. The slope and contour of the course’s landscape is its trademark with strategic mounding and over 60 contoured bunkers that emphasize the terrain’s natural undulations. The course features rolling fairways and massive greens. There are also sixteen large lakes that come into play throughout. The signature hole is the tremendous par-5, 17th, which is a scenic hole that features a lake, fairway bunkers, and a breaking green. Although the course is a challenge, there are six sets of tees to accommodate all skill levels.

The Perfect Fall Golf Day

Beautiful fall weather in North Florida for golf. Course was in good condition, but a little dry and some fairways thin. Greens rolled true and fast. Not very crowded on a Tuesday afternoon.

Different day, same golf course.

It’s too bad the people that play there do not fill in their divots either on the fairways or the par three tees. There is goose grass around the greens and around and on the tees. At least the greens are puttable now except for numbers 2, 3 and 4 . There are very few rakes. And half of those are broken. The traps are not groomed up to the edge. There is goose grass everywhere. They spray it with herbicides during the day, when there are players around who get to breathe the herbicide. The tee boxes are not level. The starters had to pay for their own air conditioning unit in the starter shack. And the driving range is a cow pasture. These conditions have existed for months and months and months. It seems the owners just do not care. Shame on them!

Nice course, be ready for bunkers

Decent course, but many of the greens seemed to be struggling and the bunkers were only raked around the greens. To be fair, they did have some good rain a few days before. Nice wide fairways, but every green seemed to be protected by large bunkers in the front. Nice practice area/range. Be ready for a ton of bunkers on the course—we hit it decent and still thought it was too many. Overall comment, we thought the course designer was angry or mad.

Making a come back

South hampton‘s greens for the longest time were some of the most consistent in the area. In the past year they were spotty and not to the same standard I have seen for the past decade. But we played today 10/14/23 and South hampton is almost back to the standard we all know. The front nine has a couple greens that have some thin spots but From hole seven on the greens are in wonderful condition. We played after 4 inches of rain and the course drained fairly well. Ryan and the pro shop is a true professional and always makes me feel appreciated as a customer. Would play again and highly recommend South hampton. It’s a fun course that doesn’t beat you up.
