Took the afternoon off to play this course near where I work. Pace of play was terrific – we teed off around 2pm did not see anyone for the whole round. The course was in terrific shape – specifically the greens – but I got an email that they are being punched next week. Tees, fairways and traps were all good. Yes, the greens do not hold as well as bent but they are not unplayable – maybe that was due to the recent rains. 7, 8 and 9 is one of the hardest three hole stretches in Charlotte.

I agree with almost your whole assesment. 7, 8, and 9 are a very, very, very tough stretch of holes! Greens are definitely playable from 150 maybe even 160 or 170 in. But once you start hitting a 4 iron from 190 or a 3 iron from 210 it is pretty hard to stop the ball. Still a great course and in wonderful conditions right now!
