ABOUT THE COURSE
Detailed description of Fort Sill Golf Club
Fort Sill Golf Club is a Military, 18 hole golf course located in Fort Sill, Oklahoma.
Fort Sill Golf Club first opened for play in 1947. The Fort Sill Golf Course wasn't always the size or the location it is today. The original Officers' Club Golf Course was nine holes and featured the first grass greens on the post. The present-day FSGC, designed in 1947, was heavily wooded and used by the Artillery Hunt Club. The course was designed by Robert Huber. The course was redesigned in 2007 by Kevin Tucker.
The Fort Sill Golf Course is a parkland wooded course, unusual to find in southwest Oklahoma, measures over sixty-five hundred yards from the back tees. Medicine Creek flows throughout the beautiful back nine of the Fort Sill Golf Course. Burr Oaks and numerous types of nut trees line the fairways. Historical sites lie in and around the golf course boundaries. Flipper's ditch, which crosses the 15th and 16th fairways, and General Custer's Bivouac
The Fort Sill Golf Course is an average length course that places a premium on straight tee shots. The finishing hole, #18, is the signature hole. It requires a tee shot to a slight dogleg left fairway. The green on this hole is elevated to approximately thirty feet above the fairway. The only hole that you hit a tee shot over water is #14, which has out-of-bounds to the right and a slightly elevated landing area with a forty-degree dogleg to the left. The course allows for up to three guests to play while accompanied by an authorized member.
