Arrowhead Pointe Golf Course At Richard B. Russell

Bob Walker's 2001 state park course with 10 holes along Lake Richard B. Russell, TifEagle greens, and no houses or roads anywhere near it.

About Arrowhead Pointe Golf Course At Richard B. Russell

Arrowhead Pointe is Georgia State Parks' course inside Richard B. Russell State Park near Elberton, and Bob Walker designed it in 2001. Ten of the 18 holes run along the shoreline of Lake Richard B. Russell, and there are no houses, cars or planes to look at, just water and trees. It's a par 72 at 6,800 yards, rated 72.3 with a 133 slope, so it's no pushover.

The lake is mostly scenery; the park itself says much of the water doesn't come into play. What you do deal with is elevation, doglegs and bunkering, and TifEagle Bermuda greens whose subtle breaks are harder than they look. The map survey backs that up: trees line 16 holes, 11 bend, there are about 63 bunkers, water touches only four, and there's roughly 82 feet between the high and low points.

It's a value course that gets noticed. In 2017 Golf Advisor put it 10th on its list of the top 25 courses under $50, GOLFPASS put it among its top 100 courses under $100 in 2022, and GOLFPASS's 2021 Golfers' Choice list had it 16th of 207 in Georgia. It also hosts school golf, including the 2026 GHSA 1-A state tournament, and the park around it was a training site for Lake Russell rowers in the 1996 Olympics.

It's one of 11 courses Yoink watches in the Augusta area, and the closest alternative is Cateechee Golf Club, about 15 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
