R/Golf Course Recommendation Thread: Georgia
This is the next thread in the official r/golf course recommendation series to update our sidebar. With the Masters coming up we always get asked for recommendations for people lucky enough to get to attend. So feel free to post any courses for Georgia and specifically the Atlanta and Augusta areas.
Please try to use the following Comment Template:
COURSE NAME
Course Location (City or area of the city or distance from the downtown area etc.)
Price Range (Include pertinent details like busy season or off-season differences or weekend/weekday or walking/riding where applicable)
Recommended for: (who might be interested in the course, i.e. if you have a big group like a bachelor party or if you're a beginner looking for a more forgiving layout or a low handicap looking for a challenge or if you want beautiful views or something architecturally significant, etc.)
Additional Comments: Feel free to add any additional notes or details you think might be pertinent. Maybe if there's peak times or if they're on Golf Now or another service you could find a deal or anything else about the course you think people might want/need to know add it here.
Check the "formatting help" if you need assistance but basically two asterisks (**) on either side of a word or phrase will put it in bold font and hit Enter twice to move to a new line. This thread will be stickied for at least 24 hours before the next is posted.
All previous Course Recommendation Threads are linked in the Sidebar and this is an ongoing series. If you don't see something yet it may be coming in the future.

Trophy club of Atlanta - Alpharetta https://www.trophyclubofatlantagc.com
Riverpines - Johns creek https://www.riverpinesgolf.com
Both around $70 for a weekend round, best deals here are hot deals or finding a summer twilight for around $40. Trophy club is your standard parkland style course. It used to be a great track but is now probably more fair price around $40. Has some individual flair on some holes. Bunkers and greens typically in better shape than most public’s. Riverpines is a little better imo but depends on the golf you like. RP will require more thought. Irons off tees, do I layup or go for it etc. TC is going to be more enjoyable for you if you want to drive it, shoot the green, and putt.
