Fort Jackson, South Carolina

The Fort Jackson Golf Course consists of two 18-hole, Par 72 courses; The Old Hickory Course and the Wildcat Course.   The Fort Jackson golf courses are considered by many to be one of the finest golf operations the military has to offer.

The Wildcat Course:   This is an 18-hole, Par 72 course that plays 6,721 yards from the back tees.  The course designer is the famous golf course architect George Cobb and it opened in 1949 with a rating of 72.1 and a slope of 131.

This is the original 18-hole course.  The Wildcat course offers generous fairways, strategically placed bunkers as it winds its way through the rolling hills of South Carolina Pines.  The view from the 17^th tee box offers the player a beautiful view of the Columbia skyline.  A challenging but fair course with little or no water to speak of.

The Old Hickory Course:   This 18-hole, Par 72 course measures at 6,618 yards from the back tees was designed by Arthur L. Davis and opened in 1991, with a rating of 71.9 and a slope of 138.

In 1991 Arthur L. Davis added 20 new holes to the original 16 holes of the Wildcat Course.  In the process he created the Old Hickory Course.  The course is not as demanding by its length but is rough over lakes and wetland areas and rewards accurate tee shots.  The Old Hickory course hosted the 1998 All Army Golf Trails Camp.

Both golf courses are open to the public.
