If there’s a publicly accessible course in Georgia that most closely mirrors Augusta National, it’s Governors Towne Club.
Located in the town of Acworth and designed by Curtis Strange, this course is less than an hour’s drive from downtown Atlanta.
Here, the tree lined fairways, undulating greens, and elevation changes will have you hitting every club in your bag.
Even though the course has a reputation of being a stout test, it’s more than playable as each hole can be played as a par three if you’re so inclined.
While the club is proud of its private membership, the public can make tee times and have the experience of being “a member for the day.”
Highly recommended and always in beautiful shape.
