Rating N/A

Pickaway Country Club is known for its welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Jack Kidwell, a local architect who designed this course and many others in Central Ohio, utilized his familiarity with the terrain but still kept each golf course distinct. Pickaway has an interesting layout that will test your shot-making abilities and strategy with narrow fairways lined with trees and small, fast greens that are difficult to read. Water hazards come into play on five holes and there are nearly 50 bunkers strategically placed throughout. There is one particularly difficult par-5 hole that requires a 250-yard drive over a meandering creek. Although the golf course offers a fair amount of challenges, they are balanced by a number of wide-open fairways that have ample space.

Birthday was great on the links

Spent a great day at Pickaway CC with my Bro, step bro n law and one of my closest friends. The weather was ideal; sunny maybe 74*, little wind.... the course was fine. Some of the greens have experienced some spotty non grass areas, some of the tee boxes had some weeds taking over and the traps look like someone made an attempt to groom them. The traps had little sand in them. Overall I was pleased with the course and pace of play, which is all I could ask for.

District practice

Played here only because of practicing for districts. 2 man scramble started 45 minutes before our t time. Had to wait until all of them teed off before we could. No mention of this scramble on golf now. Our golf cart pulled too the left and seemed to have a mind of its own. What a joke of a driving range!!!

Need course knowledge

We had a threesome today. Course was not busy, so pace of play was not an issue. We had been here several years ago,, but still found the course routing to be somewhat confusing in some areas. A couple blind tee shots to a pond at the bottom of a hill. Greens were OK, fairways and area around greens could use some help in places. Apparently some old bunkers have been abandoned and that area was worse than being in a bunker.

Easy course to walk

Because the holes are so close, the course is very easy to walk. Some holes have Tee boxes hitting as you go to the next hole. #9 is a blind shot off the tee and #18 if you hit it long, you will go into the lake. I will definitely play this course again.

Not onw od my favorate courses

Tee boxes had not been mowed (long grass).
Fairways were fair, but greens were excellent.
Cart paths were teeth jaring rough. Many front and back nine holes shared the same tee box area which led to two groups congregating in the same area. All ponds were at least partially overed with Algae. The course just did not have an overall pleasing appearance. Will not play there again.

" Home town" country club feel.

Arrived to find somewhat confusing parking arrangement but easily managed. Somewhat distantly greeted at check in. Course nicely laid out with some challenging approaches and greens. Value for play is fair. Lunch providers experienced, young golfers and easy conversationalist. Enjoyed round after initial intimidation. Would recommend.

course we were informed went public 2009

Even weather of late wet, and carts on path only was required, course was in good shape, greens rolled pretty well, overall very good time. some of the tee boxes and fairways due to rain could be mowed and I would like to try the course later this year

Needs mowed

This is the second time I have played this course. The first time I played here, I really enjoyed the round. When I played this time, I was disappointed in the tee boxes and fairways. I realize that the season is about over but the tee boxes and fairways really needed mowed. I teed off a few holes and the grass was taller then my teed-up ball. Once in the fairway, there were spots where the grass was just as tall as the ruff. The staff was really friendly and I do really like the course lay-out. I will play here again!!!

Great golf, good time!

Went with a friend, had a great time. The course was in great shape. Bunkers could use some work but there had been some rain over night. Speed of play was super because the course was not very busy. Staff was friendly and had us on our way quickly!

Great course, cold beer and pretty girls.

I arrived at the course about 15 minutes before my tee time and was quickly greeted by a young lady. She was polite and took my printed out GOLFNOW.COM sheet and said “enjoy your golf” and handed me the keys to the cart. The course was well maintained and clean. The greens were lush and tight and the fair ways were just as nice. I shot par on hole 7 and 8. At the turn I stopped in to the club house and enjoyed a delicious hotdog and a couple beers. The rest of the course was challenging but fun. Hole 18 was great and you must use your brains as much as your brawn to achieve a good score. I look forward to coming back very soon to play again.
