Tartan Fields Golf Club

Tartan Fields Golf Club sits in Dublin, Ohio, a suburb northwest of Columbus, and opened in 1998 as a daily-fee facility designed by Arnold Palmer and Ed Seay. The course occupies rolling terrain typical of central Ohio, with elevation changes that provide natural movement through the property. The design incorporates water features on several holes and uses mature tree corridors to define playing corridors, creating a parkland character that contrasts with the surrounding suburban development. The routing takes advantage of the site's topography, with holes playing across ridges and into valleys. Several holes feature elevated tees or greens that emphasize the land's contours. The par-3s vary in length and character, while the par-5s offer strategic options depending on tee placement and wind conditions. Bunkering follows Palmer's design preferences from this period, with large, visible sand complexes that frame landing areas and greenside approaches. Tartan Fields has served as a venue for professional and amateur competitions, including events on developmental tours. The facility includes a full practice area and clubhouse amenities typical of upscale public golf operations in the region. The course attracts both local golfers from the Columbus metropolitan area and visitors seeking a Palmer-designed layout in central Ohio. Conditioning standards and pace of play reflect its status as a busy daily-fee operation serving a diverse membership and public clientele.
