Course Report

Bobby Jones was personally involved in the design of Peachtree after co-creating Augusta National, infusing a similar spirit and style.

About

Peachtree Golf Club is an iconic, ultra-private course in Atlanta, crafted by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and Bobby Jones in 1948. Often compared to Augusta National, it features rolling terrain, towering pines, immaculate bentgrass greens, and signature bunkering. The course blends classic design elements and world-class conditioning, earning regular recognition among America's top 50 courses.

Caddie Tip

Pay close attention to your caddie’s reads on Peachtree’s large, undulating greens—subtle slopes can deceive even seasoned putters. Tee positioning matters, as many fairways gently bend or tilt, making approach angles vital for scoring. Take extra care with club selection into elevated greens, especially when the pin is tucked.

The Main Challenge

The biggest challenge at Peachtree is navigating its undulating terrain and large, slick greens. The fairways are generous, but approach shots demand precision to avoid deep bunkers and tricky runoffs. Uphill and downhill lies are common, making club selection critical. Scoring well requires a deft short game and the ability to manage risk.

The Good

Golfers treasure the Augusta National-like atmosphere with manicured fairways, towering trees, and classic bunkering. The peace and seclusion, even within a busy city, combine with the immaculate conditions and timeless routing. Many consider Peachtree one of the most purely enjoyable and visually stunning walks in American golf.

The Not So Good

Peachtree’s exclusivity means access is extremely limited and almost impossible for non-members. Some also note that summer humidity can lead to softer conditions, especially after rain, and the nearby city traffic occasionally intrudes upon the quiet.
