OCM Golf

Founded in 1887, the Piedmont Driving Club is one of the oldest private clubs in Georgia, with its name rooted in the early tradition of driving fine horses on the Club’s grounds in Midtown Atlanta.

Last year, the Driving Club celebrated the 25th anniversary of its Golf Club. More than 500 serene acres just 20 minutes from downtown Atlanta are home to the Club’s 18-hole Championship Course. Routed around a 145-acre lake, the course is framed by mature pines and dramatic, undulating terrain.

OCM Golf is proud to partner with the Piedmont Driving Club on a new Master Plan for the course — one designed to unlock the full potential of this remarkable property while honoring the character, history, and traditions that make it so special.

Australian Golf Digest have ranked Huntingdale Golf Club at #18 in this year's Top 100 golf courses, after their previous ranking of #53.

Australian Golf Digest have ranked Mount Lawley Golf Club at #37 in this year's Top 100 courses, after previously sitting outside the rankings.

Nice piece by Brendan James on our current renovation at Spring Valley

Like the opposite end of the property, the Southern part of Huntingdale Golf Club has again seen some fairly dramatic changes.

One of the holes we were most excited to bring back was the short par 4 5th, although it is now framed and defended by sand in place of the tea tree which terrified golfers who tried to drive the green in the 80's and 90's.

Other highlights include:
The new 9th and 13th green's (old 8th and 10th)
A very different par 3 3rd hole
The new short par 3 8th, built on the site of the club's old rubbish dump

The day has finally come….great to make a start on the renovation of

In 2022 we took 13 acres of market garden left of the 12th hole at Kingston Heath Golf Club and created a new 9-hole short course. The first new course on the sandbelt since Huntingdale in 1946.

Built as a miniature version of its sibling, “The Furrows” features 9 holes, played anywhere from 70 metres to 140 metres and designed to give the golfer the same experience as playing the main course, albeit from a shorter distance.

We’re excited to get back to New London, Minnesota this spring and make the finishing touches to our latest 18-hole new design: Tepetonka

Once the grass wakes up from its winter sleep, we will be shaping the last green on the short course and cutting out bunker edges and fine-tuning grassing lines on the main course.

With some nice spring weather, we expect to be playing preview rounds this summer.
