I mean Pate did design the course too so it's pretty nice. Not near as challenging as AU Club though.

The Arkansas golf course is one of the most difficult there is. It was rated with a 79.


The Blessings ate me alive. Took me down a peg or three.

I'm a 6 handicap and lost 4 balls last Fall at the Blessings. Retarded tough off the tee. You have to be able to blast it and know where it's going. If you're not a steady 300+ off the tee i'm not sure how you can ever break 90 there.

This is what killed me. My slice had returned with a vengeance that day. Not the best course to have questionable accuracy.

Don't know anything about golf, but do know that we used to claim (and still do, to an extent cos of Darla Moore) Augusta National as "our" course under Hootie Johnson.




That's fine, we'll do the same with Billy MF Payne.

I've played it a ton. Love the layout. But it is nice for a public course, nothing special over all. It gets too much traffic to make it super nice. However, for the price and easy access, it is tough to beat in that area.

The State course is awesome.

It's cheap for students to play and they don't care if you bring out big arse coolers and blast cigs.

They let you charge a semester pass to your student account too.



That's cool! Haven't played it in years and things have definitely changed! Remember having to load up the golf bag with Bud Light and re-filling after the first nine.

Have played many of these courses and Georgia's course is top notch, my personal favorite.

LSU's UClub is a joke. Greens are overly tricked up. Picture looks nice though.

Someone blow my mind and tell me what hole that is at Ole Miss. I'm drawing a blank

I was unaware that your golf teams played on non-campus golf courses. I understand Vandy's is half an hour from there, but it's still advertised as the Vanderbilt Legends Club. UGA plays on the "University of Georgia Golf Course" pictured in the OP. I'm sure Florida plays on their "UF" golf course that's named something else. Could be wrong though.


Yes, our course is on campus, just a few blocks from the law school and before you get to 34th street. It was originally built in 1921, and was bought by the university in 1963.

UF and UGA were the only courses to make this LIST of best college courses.

UF, UGA and Vandy made this ONE

Is that really a picture from ours? Because there is no hole that has water on it like that.

ETA: I see I am not the only one calling BS

Same for LSU's. That is a picture of The University Club. Campus course is much more on par with A&Ms.



Ya that is 18 at UClub, that hole (course too) is hard as shite.


The course on LSU campus is not nearly as nice but its better then students should be playing at.

Yes, when I think of golf in Starkville I think Old Waverly. When I was at State in 88-93 the university course couldn't compete.







Also, Old Waverly played a crucial role in getting Mullen here because Megan played it from her days at The Golf Channel and loved it. She wanted to be able to play it anytime she wanted.





Gawd's country!

Looks like #8. If so, I was less than 6 inches from a hole in one on that hole.


Did you miss the putt??
