That hole is the biggest middle finger. Short right? Water. Left? You’re hitting from pine straw over a bunker to a crazy slope. Long? You’re chipping up a steep slope onto green that’s running away from you fast.
There just isn’t a safe miss and it is a long par 3.
Whats going on everyone. New here, just moved to Columbia. Heading down to Aiken in a few weeks. Any suggestions? Played aiken golf club and forrest hills already. Loved aiken so thinking about playing there again in the morning, but would love to get an afternoon round in as well.
Had some friends play Santee at 2:00 today and they said they almost died.
Playing BerkeleyCC tomorrow right before lunch. Drank a ton of water earlier but cooking for the wife and into the wine now. I’m expecting the worst tomorrow.
I’m pretty familiar with the golf scene around Aiken-Augusta.
I think Mount Vintage is the best public deal going in the Aiken-Augusta-North Augusta area right now. Based on what you pay and what you get - it’s tough to beat. The course stays in great shape and the twilight rate (Rates - Mount Vintage Golf Club) is the same as Aiken GC right now. I would play MV over AGC and Forest Hills every day of the week.
For what it’s worth, here are my public rankings:
Mount Vintage (Independent/ Vintage are the best combo IMO)
River Club
Aiken GC
Forest Hills
Houndslake
TopGolf
Midland Valley
Shoot me a message if I can help you with any details! I am happy to help.
You will enjoy wherever you play. I think we are fortunate to have one of the best public golf layouts in SC.
Hey everyone - random question but if anyone is going to be at Legends in Myrtle Beach anytime soon, I would love to get a magnetic ball marker from each course. I blew it and didn’t get them and they’re not for sale on the website. A pencil from one of the courses would be great too. I am a bit of a collector, obviously. Of course I’d pay for all of it plus shipping and would happily return the favor if possible. I’m in the Bay Area. Hit up my DMs if you can make this work.
Hi all, I’ll likely be moving to the Charleston area in 2-3 months and was wondering what are the top 3-5 public courses that the locals consider to be the best / most enjoyable. I am familiar with the areas and have played the following courses, but i’m wondering if there are others that are not on my radar. Played: Kiawah courses (all 5 accessible ones), wild dunes, links at stono ferry, dunes west, patriots point, charleston national, and the muni. How are the seabrook island courses? What others? Thanks!

Hello to all the SC golf sickos out there. MN refugee here looking for a little advice on where to play during a trip this fall. Will be heading to Hilton Head with the fam in early October and staying on the island for 4 days, hoping to play a round or two on at least 3 of those days. Any advice would be extremely welcome!! We are willing to head off the island, but would like stay probably within 45 minutes, and ideally $150~ per round seems legit (however I do love a great strapped course, so if you know one in the area please throw it my way). I’d love to return the favor and sherpa anyone around if you’re ever up in the Twin Cities neck of the woods!
RTJ course in Palmetto Dunes and Hilton Head National in Bluffton are good.
Harbour Town is obviously the bucket-list course but will cost you more than $150 in October. The other Sea Pines courses should be closer to your budget.
Westin Savannah Harbor isn’t a bad drive and is great.
Most of the best golf in the area is behind gates, sadly.
If you know anyone at Long Cove, Colleton River, Chechessee Creek or Secession, jump on that.
