South at Quail Chase Golf Club

Quail Chase Golf Club's South Course is a David Pfaff design located in Louisville, Kentucky. Pfaff, a regional architect active primarily in the Midwest during the late twentieth century, created layouts known for working with the natural terrain and incorporating strategic elements suited to a range of player abilities. The South Course reflects this approach, utilizing the rolling topography characteristic of the Louisville area to create elevation changes and varied hole presentations.

The course occupies land in the outer Louisville suburbs, where residential development often borders the playing corridors. The routing takes advantage of natural drainage patterns and wooded areas typical of Kentucky's Bluegrass region, with mature trees framing fairways and defining risk-reward decisions on approach shots. Water features appear on several holes, adding both visual interest and strategic considerations for course management.

As part of a multi-course facility, the South Course serves a membership that includes both serious golfers and recreational players. The layout provides a straightforward test of golf without excessive length or severe hazards, making it accessible for daily play while still requiring thoughtful shot-making. Conditioning standards reflect the expectations of a private club environment, with attention to greens quality and overall playability throughout the season.
