Was inevitable I guess, but this course is going backwards fast. Greens are still good, everything else is just ok to terrible. The range balls were in terrible condition, half the bunkers are red clay. They are taking out a lot of bunkers as well so what is left are massive holes that look terrible with signs that say "GUR". Some of the "cart path only" signs look like they were created by children. The starter said they use red, white and blue flags to show the pin positions but some of the flags had been stolen so he said it is a mix. They have no other way to tell where the pin is (no pin position map on the cards or anything). I feel bad for the course as it obviously doesn't make enough money from rounds to make ends meet. For those who live in Charlotte this course is no longer worth the drive to play.
MGOBLUE at 2/18/19 11:10am – Very sad to hear that as it is one of my favorite courses, last played there in August due only because of my schedule.The B-Man at 2/11/19 10:49am – Hate to hear this. There is a Charlotte Amateur Golf Tour tournament there next Saturday that I was considering playing in. May skip based on this review. Thanks for posting.
Ballantyne closes today :-(

For those that may have missed the news last month, The Golf Club at Ballantyne closes for good today. I really hate to see it go and have no idea how they will manage to find comparable golf for their guests to enjoy while staying the hotel. I will always have a plaque...
