A shot makers course

This course is not about hitting the long ball, it is about hitting accurate tee and iron shots. But that is the easy part as the greens are fast but true. On some holes you will have to be on the right part of the green or you will most likely 3 putt. Great value as it includes food and range balls. Great staff.

Best greens in North Georgia

Always in great shape. Pin placement on certain greens can really test your ability to not 3 putt
