Old Hickory at Fort Jackson Golf Club

I’m a Veteran that has played Ft. Jackson for almost 20 years. The starter they have now consistently sends off singles and doubles on Saturday morning (many are walk-ups with no tee time). This is very inefficient vs. threesomes/foursomes. I can’t get a rhythm with the pace/waiting created by this insanity, and he doesn’t even try to pair anyone despite opportunities to do so. There is no food except some refrigerated pre-made sandwiches and crackers/candy…used to be a full bar and restaurant but those days are gone. Course conditions are mediocre at best. Staff does not understand that GolfNow sells a 12:03 HotDeal in addition to their internal 12:06, which has been the arrangement for well over a year. They argue with me about having a 12:03 several times a month 😂

They don’t know how to handle golf now tee times just yet due to it being a military base and cannot give golf now access to tee sheets. Our tee time was “hand entered” 35 mins after we actually booked it online and had to wait. They were very apologetic as they were figuring it out. Would recommend booking on the phone.

Fort Jackson has two courses that are both open to the public. The Wildcat course is the longer and more difficult of the two. There are no water hazards but there are many bunkers and significant elevation changes. This was the third time I’ve played there and plan to again soon.

For a military base this is a 5 star course. Make sure you get there early so you can get your visitor pass. The staff were very nice and helpful with any questions. For March, the greens were in great condition. Fairways are starting to come back as well. Definitely going to be playing here this summer.

Old Hickory was in great shape this day and greens were great

The course was very playable and the pace of play was good. Great value for the price.

Good course but starters and over site needed
Greens need to be rolled and sand traps need work

Beautiful golf course, the ball sits up well everywhere you hit it. Nice approaches to the well kept greens, and look very nice, love to play again.

FYI! I showed up at this course while GolfNow took my money in advance. There was no starting time, and the course said they DO NOT work with Golf Now. 2 calls to Golf Now seeking a refund has resulted in me being placed on hold for over an hour with no one picking up the phone.

I can't rave enough about the high quality of the greens! I was able to throw darts at the pins and they stopped on a dime. Great value on the Hotdeal only $24 plus tax/fees. Driving range and practice area was in great condition. A great chance to get a few swings in before the 2024 WLD competition @ Fort Jackson. A+ will definitely be back!

You stop at the main gate of Fort Jackson to get a pass into the base. Takes 15-20 minutes. Then off to a very nice course, played the Wildcat course, in good shape, w friendly staff, well kept greens, and a rolling setting thru the pines, not unlike Augusta. Go and have fun.

Due is a military property, the car driver must have a US or International driver's license to drive inside the facilities.

Wildcat is an excellent test for an average golfer from the Blue tees. Has some good scoring holes and some very challenging. If you are driving the ball well, pars are in your favor.
