Me & Ron back on 10/10/24 for some Fall golf.
We were hoping to see some color in the leaves but too early.

What we did find were exceptional greens and wide open fairways in excellent condition.

This is a shot makers course and if you don’t stay in the fairway you’ll be looking for your ball among the pine cones, good luck with that.

The previous Head Pro.Matt has moved on to Piney Point in Norwood, NC.
The new guy is Wally Moore.

The range, chipping and putting practice areas are all in great condition.

It was a sunny day, a little on the cool side at 61 degrees for a 10a tee time with wind gusting to 27 mph. We had great pace of play and finished the front in 2 hours, it had warmed to 67 and the wind was down.

We made the turn and kept on playing as the group in front of us moving so we were able to play ready golf and complete the round in 4 hours. They advertise to allow 4.5 hours for 18 holes.

Since this was my third time playing in 3 years, I had some course knowledge
which made a big difference, especially on #11, 452 yard par 5. It’s a blind shot until you’re about 200 yards out and then you can see the edge of the pond that juts out from left to right. You have a decision to make. Go over the water or play to the right & avoid the pond on your left and have 200 yards of open fairway to the pin. It’s a large green so a well placed shot will give you a great birdie opportunity.

I would play here more often but it’s a 40+ mile trek through Charlotte traffic but it’s worth it.
