Other Information: 

The golf course at Atlanta National Golf Club, designed by Pete and P.B. Dye, has many unique features including zoysia grass fairways and bent grass greens. The Dyes incorporated into the course all the design elements, for which they are so famous, undulating fairways, treacherous pot bunkers, waste areas with cross ties, and even an island green.  The greens at Atlanta National Golf Club were replaced in 2004.
