"Great course"
First time playing here --- very impressed with the greens as the Sunday Ultra-Dwarf Bermudagrass is as advertised! Very smooth and they roll true. A good variety of holes and good risk/reward shots as well. Hard to get into too much trouble here. Enjoyed it very...
Imagine if more courses were walkable. Example instead of the $55 green fee with cart on the weekend, to walk your fee would be $35. Too few quality walkable courses has everyone paying more for golf than they should in my opinion.
You simply cant walk places like Highland, Skybrook, Birkdale.
That’s what I’m talking about. I use to walk Torrey Pines for a twilight rate of $6. In pro golf, greed rules. Part of the problem with golf in Charlotte is the NASCAR mentality, and the inbred desire that thinks if it’s expensive, then it must be good. We’re so far from the game’s original intent, I won’t start.
Regarding the posts about prices and walking, I think there are still good values around, especially for walking. A few courses that I would consider walking to get a reduced rate:
Monroe CC
Charlotte National
Stonebridge
Fort Mill
Borderline / Restricted walking policies:
Charlotte Golf Links
Olde Sycamore
Emerald Lake
Walkable but already a bargain and conditions not always great:
Larkhaven
Charles T Myers
Courses I would never walk:
Regent Park
The Divide
Renaissance Park
Skybrook
Carolina Lakes
Red Bridge
