An executive course off Morgan Falls Road, open to the public: twelve par 3s, five par 4s and one par 5, par 61, packed into about a hundred acres on a hillside.

Everything on this page comes from two open datasets, the golf features mapped in OpenStreetMap and the USGS 1 m lidar grid of the ground, and from our own rounds. Nothing comes from the course’s website, a golf app or a yardage book. The hole signs name three tees, Black, White and Red. The course’s scorecard gives every hole’s yardage from the Black and the White, 3,799 and 3,375 yards; the Red is known only on 16, from its sign.

Why I like it

I really enjoy this executive course, and a lot of that is the scenery. The ground moves: real elevation change, which we’ve measured, mostly on the first seven holes. Almost everywhere you look it looks like a Windows XP wallpaper, which I love.

There aren’t many trees on the early holes, which is good and bad. Holes 8, 11 and 12 are pretty much surrounded by them.

It isn’t the most pristinely maintained course, but it does a very good job against other public courses, though I’m too new to the game to speak to that well. The carts are gas, the driving range is fantastic and has a ball tracking system, and it’s a great value.

What the ground says

Four things the lidar and the map show about this course, worked out from the data rather than read off a brochure.

Biggest drop 63ft

Hole 4 falls that far from the tee end of its line to the green.

Most tilted green 6.2%

Hole 5, falling to the west. A soft finding: the outline may take in some collar, and a round will confirm it.

Greens 4,260sq ft

The median green, from 2,800 to 5,460 square feet as mapped.

One swing to hit the green 12of 18

Par 3s, where a green in regulation is the tee shot.

Terrain: USGS 3DEP 1 m lidar, drawn on a 2 m grid on a computer (479,136 triangles) and 4 m on a phone, at 1.5x vertical scale, with a faint contour every 10 ft. A flight draws the hole it follows from the 1 m grid on a computer and the 2 m grid on a phone (a computer also takes the colors at 0.25 m a pixel, 247 KB), and follows the hole as OpenStreetMap maps it, tee end to green, never a ball. Fairways, greens, tees, bunkers, water and cart paths from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL), the fairways striped along each hole for looks, not from a mowing record. Lit from the northwest, 42° up, the cartographers' convention.

The 18 holes

Each hole turned to play up the page, drawn from the map over the lidar. The arrow on the green shows the way it falls. Yardage comes from the course's scorecard, tee by tee.

Golf features

Holes, par, stroke index, greens, tees, fairways, bunkers, water and cart paths from OpenStreetMap, © OpenStreetMap contributors, under the Open Database License. Four volunteer mappers drew the golf detail, mostly in 2022. Anything renovated since the mapping may not show.

Terrain

USGS 3D Elevation Program, 1 m lidar, from Georgia's 2018 statewide flight, public domain. Hole profiles are the ground along each mapped hole line. Green tilt is a plane fitted to the ground inside each mapped green; a tilt of 5% or more is a soft finding until a round confirms it.

What is not here

No imagery or yardages from the course's website, golf apps or yardage books. No shot tracking: where people walked, never where a ball went. The mapped length of a hole is not its card yardage.
