An Atlanta Golf Course Review

Reviewed on 9/24/2025

John A White

Public

$18-$29

Westside of Atlanta


John A. White (JAW) is a short, par-35 course located in Southwest Atlanta, about 7 miles from downtown. It's definitely a budget course, but since Bobby Jones Golf Links took over management in 2023, the course has been steadily improving.


This review is brought to you by Whoop 'Em Wednesdays! One of the best YouTube channels coming from the heart of the A. You can always expect some banter, some betting, and some good vibes. Subscribe to their YouTube channel!


Scroll down to the bottom to see my match at John A. White on the channel.

One of the biggest improvements is a major new clubhouse / community facility - opening in late 2026. A 29,000-square-foot two-story multi-use center is under construction that will include senior community amenities, pro shop, classrooms, simulators, restaurant/bar, event spaces, etc. Link


Currently, the clubhouse is pretty bare-bones, so this will be a huge upgrade to the experience.


Unfortunately, the construction means the grass(!) range is currently closed, which is a huge bummer. If you're playing one of the other city courses nearby like Tup or Browns Mill (who don't have ranges), the JAW range is usually a great place to warm up. I do like the putting green near the first tee. That's always a nice convenience as you wait for your round to start.


The layout is very fun! Considering it's a par-35 and only 2800yds from the tips, it has more variety than you might think. Hole 1 is a 500+ yard par 5 with an epic elevation drop off the tee. The three par 3s offer different challenges - from 115 to 190 yds. And even the short par 4s make you think through a couple options before choosing the club.


The biggest concern I have when paying less than $20 for a round is if I'm going to playing on dirt the whole time. But that wasn't the case. I was very impressed by the conditions considering the cost. A few tee boxes were a little wonky and a couple were mats... plus there are some dead spots scattered around the greens - usually around the fringe, though. Bunkers were raked and had plenty of sand, and the fairways were perfectly fine. The rough is brutal though. The course might not be long, but the rough is the course's teeth.


I was also impressed by some of the little things. All of the ball cleaners that I tested had water/soap. There was even cold water in the coolers scattered around.


It's honestly very hard to be critical considering the price.


The highest you'll pay at JAW is $29 for a weekend time with a cart. It's worth that, but the course is very walkable and a short 9 holes - save $7 and pay $21 to walk or $18 during the week. That's about as good of a value as you can you're going to find for 9 holes in Atlanta. Sometimes you can even snag a Hot Deal for $16 that includes a cart!


It's already one of the best bang for your buck in the area, but if prices remain the roughly same when the new clubhouse opens and range re-opens, it'll probably be contender for #1.


I definitely recommend John A White.

https://rr88.accountant/ ban đầu mình nghĩ chắc lại kiểu trang dài lê thê đọc mỏi mắt, ai ngờ mở ra thì bố cục lại khá dễ chịu, lướt một đoạn là hiểu họ đang nói gì. Mấy khối nội dung được canh gọn, chữ không bị dồn sát nhau nên đọc nhanh cũng không thấy “ngợp” (đỡ phải nheo mắt như lúc đọc điều khoản ngân hàng). Mình để ý phần giới thiệu có nhắc chuyện giấy phép Isle of Man với Cagayan nghe cũng đàng hoàng, ít nhất họ có đưa thông tin ra thay vì giấu nhẹm. Ngoài ra các tiêu đề kiểu “giới thiệu” và “điểm khác biệt” đặt khá lộ, nên kéo xuống là thấy ngay, không…

I can see why making personal safety education age appropriate would invite discussion, since different people will bring different experiences to the same question. Clear language about boundaries makes an awkward subject easier to discuss respectfully. It also gives the phrase personal safety education a clearer meaning than a label on its own. I am more curious about the process than a polished result, because the steps in between are usually where questions appear. How can lessons about personal safety remain understandable at different ages?

When it comes to developing practical technical skills in Chodziez, I would rather understand one useful detail properly than rush through a long list of ideas. A practical task often reveals gaps that a written exercise leaves unnoticed. For me, that is a useful way into the broader subject of technical education in Chodziez. The part I would like to explore further is what happens when the idea meets a real situation with its own limitations. How would you connect workshop practice with the theory taught in class?

What interests me about preparing for the Polish school-leaving examination is how a broad idea becomes part of an ordinary day. A manageable revision schedule makes a large syllabus feel less overwhelming. That is the kind of detail I would keep in mind while exploring matura exam preparation. I am still thinking through the details, and a small example would help me picture how this works in practice. How would you divide revision time between familiar material and weaker subjects?

x88 mình vừa lướt qua thử trên điện thoại và thấy bố cục khá gọn gàng. Kiểu không cần đọc kỹ vẫn nắm được đại khái họ đang giới thiệu gì, vì các phần nội dung được chia theo cụm rõ ràng, kéo xuống tới đâu biết tới đó, không bị trôi tuột một mạch khó theo. Mình chủ yếu xem trang chủ thôi, thấy có đoạn “tổng quan đôi nét” đặt ngay chỗ dễ nhìn nên đọc lướt cũng hiểu đây là nền tảng giải trí online nhiều thể loại, giao diện thì thiên về trực quan chứ không màu mè quá. Nói chung thao tác chuyển mục cũng nhanh. Mình thích mấy tiêu đề mục to, chia section…
