Furman University Golf Course is a Semi-Private 18 holes golf course located in Greenville,South Carolina .
Furman University Golf Course first opened for play in 1955.
This is one of the finest University Courses in the country.
Furman University Golf Course is the home of the Furman Paladins, which has produced such well-known professionals as Dottie Pepper, Beth Daniel, Betsy King and Brad Faxon.
This is old-fashioned golf at its best: long (7,004 yards) and relatively open, with just enough water to keep golfers on their toes. Best Hole: No. 13, a 469-yard par-4 with a tee shot to a tight (15-20 yards wide) landing area, then a long-iron shot over a valley to the green. A bunker on the right front catches most missed shots.
Purple tees: par-72, 7,004 yards, 73.6 / 134
Black tees: par-72, 6,600 yards, 71.9 / 132
White tees: par-72, 6,091 yards, 69.6 / 130
Gold tees: par-72, 5,395 yards, 66.5 / 120
Lavender tees: par-72, 4,993 yards, 68.5 / 115

Very nice course, long holes, but wide fairways. Lots of trees, rolling greens. Will definitely challenge your play. Will play this one again.

This is a long course, even from the white tees. Some holes were shortened this year but the course still plays long.
My major complaint is that all the par 4s start to look alike. There is not enough variety.
The Staff is as good as it gets for this area.
The entire course from 30yds in is being redesigned and all the greens will be replaced, new bunkers etc starting in May of -08 and will be completed in October. Can not wait to play it after the changes are made.
