My first time back at the Lark since they put in the new(ish) greens. This is such a quirky course. The most unique starting hole in all of Charlotte – I hit 8 iron, 9 iron on the short, uphill par 4. The greens can be maddening now for two reasons – they don’t hold approach shots at all and they are silly fast. I saw 3 putts from within 15 feet go right off the green. Bounces everywhere are random and often penalizing – fairway, rough, green, everywhere. Tee boxes were not in great shape either. And the course was packed and play was slow. So overall, I’m not a huge fan of this course. For a short notice round on a Saturday morning though, the $34 price was a good value.
