Fast greens

Greens were a little firm but rolled fairly true. However, they were very fast and hole placement was in tricky locations for the average golfer.

Great Greens

1st time playing here...great greens!!! Slick & in immaculate condition. Nice fair layout....typical Donald Ross....lots of room off the tee & smallish undulating greens....but TRUE & fast!!! Honestly, course a bit rough around the edges....lots of washout areas & gullies along paths that could use a little TLC, and cart paths could use some work.......but tee boxes, fairways, bunkers & greens all pristine. Over an hour and a half drive to play, but for me, definitely worth the trip!!! Play it if you get the chance!!!! I'll be back!!!

Super fast green!!! Long course. Excellent test.

I haven’t played Forrest Hills in over 10 years. This course will challenge any golfer. Greens were so fast!!! Course has some serious elevation changes. Local course knowledge would have really helped my club selection. I can’t wait to play this Gem again.

Mature Traditional Gem ... alittle rainy.

Early teetime, 10am ... paired up with a couple young local TV reporters. Spacious, well manicured, elevation changes everywhere. Very enjoyable. Nice fairways .. nice greens. Rained alittle on holes 3 thru 7. Got alittle bunched up on the back nine. Not a fan of the GPS system which kept shutting down our cart even when we were still on the cartpaths! Very strange. All and all a pretty good day. You could just "feel" the history ... would DEF play again.

Best Course of a lifetime

I drove up from Florida to meet my Uncles, Brother and a Friend. They were coming from Atlanta and Cooumbia. Everyone was impressed they were all impressed with the beauty and challenge of this course. Great job.

Best greens in the area

No public course and very few private courses in the Aiken-Augusta have better greens. Greens are smooth, fast and consistent from green to green. Don’t believe the complaints about unfair undulations. In Aiken in particular, the greens are far more undulating and very grainy at most places. At Forest Hills, the ball goes exactly where you aim it and strike it. No surprises. During Masters Week, the shop told us the greens were rolling 12.5. I’d say the greens run 11-12 on most days. Of course I like quick greens AO to me they are perfect. Some tee boxes are being resodded. Otherwise tees and fairways are in great shape. So are roughs and sand traps. What I like most is the course generally attracts a better caliber player. Not necessarily ability-wise but golf awareness. No tee shirt and denim wearing hooligans like you see at lesser courses.

Overall the golf course was in good shape. Some tee boxes need grass / water / fertilizer to get the sod to grow.
