The new “Chalk Mine” 9 hole short course is apparently opening soon near Aiken, SC. Check out this video<\/a> by Bryan Bros Golf which features the new, okay maybe the first, course record by <\/strong>George Bryan @bryanbrosgolf<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

While the opening date\/rates are yet to be determined, this continues to make a case for Aiken\/Augusta as a legitimate golf destination with the Aiken Golf Club<\/a>, Cedar Creek<\/a>, Midland Valley<\/a>, and across the Savannah River, the River Club<\/a>, and Forest Hills<\/a>, all with varying levels of architectural pedigree.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

With the typically mild winters, reasonable lodging rates, at least when the Masters isn’t on, and plenty of restaurants across the value spectrum, Aiken\/Augusta begins to look like a legitimate golf destination.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
