Old South Golf Links
About
The 18-hole Old South Golf Links in Bluffton, S.C. is a public course that opened in 1991. Designed by Clyde Johnston, Old South Golf Links measures 6,772 yards from the longest tees and has a slope rating of 129 and a 72.4 USGA rating. The course features four sets of tees for different skill levels.
Johnston designed Old South Golf Links in keeping with the beautiful Lowcountry's natural landscape. "Old South Golf Links was designed not only to provide an enjoyable yet challenging golf game, but also to preserve the natural beauty of the land," he said. "I felt that this was an opportunity to allow the golfer to experience up close the uniqueness of the site, its natural amenities and spectacular views."
The variety of the setting from oak forest to open pasture to tidal salt marsh, provided an opportunity to vary the design elements and strategy of play.
Old South Golf Links is open to the public seven days a week. There is a clubhouse, restaurant and full-line pro shop on site.

View from the 17th tee at Old South Photo submitted by Harenb on 11/18/2013
Love the layout
4 1/2 hour round greens were great except for a few spots that had some disease overall a great course
Greens were very slow. Fairways were full of spots of funky growth.
Always a interesting course
Everything about this course is positive, greens,fairways and traps always well maintained. layout is challenging and interesting.
Beautiful march views and pace of play was excellent.
Played on a gorgeous morning on this beautiful course. Play was on pace and course was interesting. A few greens had some damaged areas and all were running slow.
Challenging & Fun To Play
OSL is sneaky challenging. There’s a lot of fairway undulations, varied green sizes, elevated greens & carries over hazards & water. The course & greens are in good shape for this time of year. Very friendly & accommodating staff all around.
This course was below expectations
The pace of play was very slow - almost 5 hours and some of dog leg holes were hokey - over extended penalty areas with limited landing opportunities. The staff was great but we will not return.
We regret to hear you were not pleased with your round at Old South. Most enjoy the variety and challenge of our layout and the spectacular scenery.
