The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
A revered Donald Ross design restored by Kyle Franz to wide fairways, sandy native areas, and recovered green shapes, where strategy comes from playing to the correct side of the fairway for the right angle. Golfers love the topography, walkability, and authentic Golden Age, ground-game character.
Consistently praised
- Authentic Ross routing with terrific topography, variety, and green surrounds that filter or reject shots.
- Wide fairways and sandy native areas give a classic, scruffy Sandhills look, and the walk is exceptional.
Worth knowing
- The ground-game emphasis rewards run-up shots over aerial bombing, which can surprise modern players, and it plays tougher if you ignore approach angles.
Golfers recommend
- Walk it, and play to the proper side of the fairway to open the best angle in.
- Use the ground; bounce and roll approaches the way the course was meant to be played.
