Peachtree is the gold standard in Atlanta. The place oozes with golf and southern history. Good luck getting in if you weren’t 3x legacy at UGA or a mid-am stud. The entire place is amazing and the conditions would rival those of ANGC.

Augusta National is a very challenging experience for me. Everywhere I turn is a reminder of a moment in golf history. It’s sensory overload and it’s very distracting. The greens are mesmerizing and I could spend hours on each one.

Lookout is a scruffy mountainside Raynor that with a little more time post their renovation by Kyle Franz and Tyler Rae, is going to be on everyone’s bucket list that doesn’t already have it. You get massive green complexes and the ability to feed balls into pins off huge slopes.

The course needs time to grow in. The layout is very goofy . But the views are incredible.

How we rank
This ranking uses each golfer’s layout rating, on a 0.5–5 scale. Layout is the layout score golfers give when they log a round. Every golfer counts once per course: repeat rounds are averaged first, then the course score is the average across golfers. A course needs layout ratings from at least 5 different golfers. Ties go to the course with more golfers, then the higher Course Vaults score. Only open courses with a published Course Vaults score (at least 5 explicit ratings) are eligible, and a page is published only when at least 5 courses qualify. State pages include courses across Georgia. Rankings refresh about hourly.
