Palmetto Traverse Putting Course

Opened August 2019, the Palmetto Traverse putting course is a 35,000 square foot green designed for wild fun, with putts as long as 260 feet possible and over some of the most varied terrain you will ever see in a putting surface. The design is based on the Himalayas putting course at St. Andrews and designed by golf course architect and Donald Ross restoration specialist Kris Spence.

The complex — which was constructed using USGA sub-surface drainage and rootzone, and topped with a TifEagle Ultradwarf surface — also includes a pair of small bunkers within the surface area and a small central grassy island with a sitting area and landscaping. The internal contours include plateaus, terraces, swales, rolls, valleys, spines, and slopes that will provide abundant variety and challenging fun for players of all abilities – from beginners to the most seasoned golfers.

“The green includes most every feature a golfer might experience when playing golf around the world.” – Kris Spence

The putting green is conveniently located behind the Lake Marion GC clubhouse.
