Augustine at Augustine Golf Club

Augustine Golf Club, situated in the rolling landscape of Stafford, Virginia, is a testament to a specific vision: an experience that prioritizes classic golf principles over modern championship length. The course favors strategic play over sheer power, a refreshing approach in today's game.

Designed by Rick Jacobson, in the late 1990s, Augustine offers a parkland-style layout defined by mature hardwoods and subtly contoured greens. The course winds through the natural topography, presenting a varied test where placement and angle outweigh distance. It is a thinking-man's track, not overly punishing, but continuously demanding thoughtful decisions. The front nine is open to a degree but the back nine is tighter and more scenic.

While not a stop on the professional circuit, Augustine has earned a solid reputation within the Virginia golf community. Its commitment to course conditions and playability fosters a loyal membership who appreciate the game in its purest form. One particularly memorable feature is the stone bridge on the 14th hole, a picturesque element that embodies the course's blend of challenge and beauty.
