re: Golf around Atlanta area

OK, I do remember the Georgia Tech Club opening. Was surprised they built it that far from campus.
What has closed around there? Looks like Atlanta National is still open as is Hawks Ridge and Settindown Creek (now Capital City Club-Crabapple). I'm not familiar with The Manor unless it had a different name.
Fun fact- I made it through sectional qualifying at Settindown Creek into the 1996 US Open.

Settindown Creek is a tough course. It's a sleeper in that area, not many know about it. I think one course was the Trophy Club of Alpharetta and another one was off Densmore, can't remember the name. I past my PAT at trophy club way back in 1993. I too was a PGA pro at St Ives, but got out of the business in 1999
The Capital City course at Crabapple is next to Atlanta National, it's not Settindown, that one is still around off Cox Rd
Played Atlanta National last week, not nearly as nice as it once was. Never played Hawks Ridge. I play most of my golf at Crystal Falls. Always in great shape!
I think Echelon became the name soon after they opened. Like a year after, people thought it was exclusive to GA Tech and it wasn't. The course went bankrupt and was bought in 2014. The new owner built the clubhouse and made many improvements to the course. That back nine can eat your lunch up and down those hills.

Settindown is not Capital City Crabapple. As a member of one of those clubs and having played the other several times, I can tell you that they are different. Settindown is Ansley Golf Club. Crabapple is CC.
