The Aiken Golf Club

About The Aiken Golf Club:

Situated amongst the rolling Carolina sandhills, the course plays 5,734 yards from the Medal Tees, 5,361 yards from the Mid Tees and 4,572 from the Fore Tees.

All greens and tees were rebuilt during 1999 to USGA specifications. Most of the undulating, Bermudagrass greens descend from back to front, and have two or more levels. Fast and bewildering, trying to pitch onto these greens, leaving yourself an uphill putt from the correct shelf, can give new meaning to the word "touch."

Sand waste areas were incorporated throughout the course during the remodeling process. Areas between tee boxes and landing zones, distant right and left areas along fairways, and borders to some greens are the main places you'll find them. Planted with lovegrass, they are aesthetically pleasing and serve an important role in conserving water during the heat of summer.
