Old Hickory Golf Club was designed to fit its site with great precision. The par-72, 7,190-yard championship layout is the work of architect Tim Freeland of Jacksonville, Fla., who previously worked for the design firm of golf legend Gary Player.
Old Hickory course architect Tim Freeland describes the property as “gently rolling terrain covered with pine, oak, maple, and hickory,”. Freeland also point out the Old Hickory is “bisected by Beaver Creek with about nine holes to the north and nine to the south of the creek. For about half the holes, we didn't have to move any earth at all; the holes just set down into their site naturally.”
At Old Hickory golfers will find the fairways very wide and open, but also mounded on the sides so balls will bounce back toward the middle. |
