Course has great layout

The course has a great layout and is well kept, but the price for the course is way too high for what you get.

Lovely City Course

If you overlook the fact that they cut down a lot of trees to reconfigure the course, it is a beauty. Really well-designed reversible course gives you twice as many looks for the same real estate. We will be back and thanks to the folks that work there. They made our visit memorable.

Great family golf

Great open fairways with tricky greens, awesome bunkers. First class amenities and Resturant / Bar. Fun 9 holes and then play it again or mix it up. Double greens with red and white pins.

Has potential

Course layout is a little confusing. Better signage will help. Greens were quick and in good shape. Looking forward to playing the course when it greens up.

Club Fitting

I just spent an hour with Paul Alcorn doing the driver fitting. A great experience. Paul is great and makes the experience informational as well as very relaxing and non-pressured to buy a club. You hit out of a building but rather than into a simulator you actually get to hit out onto the range. I cannot explain how that helped the experience as well! Would highly recommend the hour with Paul and I can get the vibe a training session would be worth it as well.

Nice course, weird setup.

It's a nicely kept course. The setup takes a little while to get used to. One thing that was frustrating was they didn't have the tee markers out, so it was really hard to gauge distances.

Fun Day

A friend and I met to walk 9. I had not played this course in 30 years, so this was a first time playing the new layout. The greens are great and the layout was a fun challenge.

Great walk around BJ 9 hole

Course is in great shape from tee to green. No rough to play out of that I found. All turf was really well maintained. The course is unique as some holes are very close together and balls are flying everywhere

Greens were pure and speedy....made for a great day of putting. Saw the beverage cart twice which was nice. If you are in Atlanta and have time for nine holes, give it a try!

The requirement to walk before noon is not desirable during excruciatingly hot summer days. Didn’t see the drink/food cart for 8 holes. The condition of the course was very good. True greens. But the overall experience was just “okay” and not particularly challenging and therefore I can only give it an average score. Golf should always be fun and challenging!

Interesting concept.

Fantastic for an urban golf course. I really liked the concept of reversible tees and double greens. And the course has all the length you need. But it’s wide open like a cow pasture. Can seem like a shooting gallery with people hitting right at you at times. Few trees and few hazards. Still good value for the price.

Endless variety

I love the changes at Bobby Jones. I played the Azalea for the second time, this time with my 12 year-old son. The variety of tee boxes gave us so many options for how to play each hole. The layout is creative and interesting, with a short par 4 and 5 giving you a chance to score. It's a fantastic option for a round of golf "in town."

The course was okay. Flat but okay. The price was more than I would expect for the layout. I did like the high-tech carts.

Awesome

Have not played the course in a long time. The change is amazing. Such a fun playable course. Greens were phenomenal and lightning fast. Course is wide open for the sprayers but the green complex is its best defense. Have a short game at this course!!

An incredible redo

Having grown up in Atlanta, I have played the public golf courses offered there many times. One course I avoided was Bobby Jones in Midtown. The course was neglected and the layout could be down right dangerous as several of the holes put you in harms way from a slight slice or pull by your fellow golfers. This was in part due to small acreage the 18 holes covered.. Last year, the course was converted from an 18 hole course to a 9 hole course and a world class driving range was added. To my great surprise, the developers saw to it that the fairways and greens are as good as any course in Atlanta, public or private! The condition and speed of the greens are as good and fast as any in town. It is a true pleasure to play a public golf course that as in good of condition as the expensive county clubs. The course is a must stop for any avid golfer that visits the area and can be enjoyed for all level of players as each hole has 9 different tees to choose from. Once the club house gets finished, it will also boost a facility that resembles a private county club and will host the GA Golf Hall of Fame and a full service bar and restaurant. I couldn't be happier that such a facility is offered at such affordable prices and is in such a convenient location. Please make plans to stop and play as you won't be disappointed!
