New Menu Rolled Out

Georgia Clubs culinary genius Chef Ray.

the addition of the big fans and our superintendent’s keen sense of when

to punch, fertilize and water the greens, our 15 year old bent grass greens

still compete with any other course’s putting surfaces. Sure, Bermuda greens

may be easier to maintain in the hot summer months, but they tend to

struggle during cold winters. My money is on bent grass greens; literally. So if you are a year round golfer like I am, show your appreciation to our golf

course crew; give them a wave, verbalize your appreciation, fix ball marks and enjoy some of the best

playing conditions in north Georgia.

I am pretty much your average “Joe.”

I’ve worked in the business sector for many years and have been an avid golfer for quite some time. I’ve been

a member at several golf clubs; private and semi-private but I have now settled in at The Georgia Club. I chose The Georgia Club first and foremost

because of the course conditions and the value of playing a consistently

well-kept course and nice layout for the price. I have yet to be disappointed. Our

Course Superintendent and his team do a great job of maintaining hundreds of acres of grass and greens although

I do hear some negative comments from time to time from some of my

fellow members. However, consider this; how many 27 hole golf clubs that

charge what we charge have consistent well-maintained bent grass greens and are open 7 days a week for almost 52

weeks out of the year? Well- maintained bent grass greens

in this part of our state are rare and ours are some of if not the best around; year

round. Sure our greens get a little “stressed” this time of the year but with
