Ambassador at Hickory Valley Golf Club

About
Hickory Valley Golf Club boasts two 18-hole, regulation-length courses, named the Ambassador and the Presidential. The Ambassador Course is the shorter of the two at 6,450 yards but it still offers a fair test. The classic layout is routed through towering hardwoods forests that stretch to over 70 feet high. The tall hickory trees loom over the fairways. The small greens are sloped back to front, presenting a challenge for even the most seasoned players. Water hazards come into play on several holes and there are a few tricky doglegs to contend with. The bunkering is minimal but the abundant trees will be enough to keep you on your toes. The golf course has some challenging holes but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Nice Course
We played thw Presidential. Front 9 is beautiful back 9 is nice but not as nice as the front. Still a nuve course to play.
Course Review
Not a huge fan of this course. No different flag colors for pin position, hole 9 doesn’t come around back to the clubhouse to get drinks and food for the back 9. Greens were bumpy
Needs clean up
Course has a lot of clean up to do, branches in the fairways etc. Its been dry lately the should have the course cleaned up by now.
November
Very good conditions considering it is November and we are in a drought. Leaves were minimal, greens in good shape after aeration.
