Seriously man. Cedar Rock is the hardest course in North Carolina. Its about 7400 yards and the greens are as fast as concrete. Ive played there many times and I do well to break 80 and Im a scratch golfer.3/31/2006 11:07:43 AM |

Pinehurst #2 is the best ive played. Mt. Mitchel Golf Club is one of my favorites. 3/31/2006 11:17:52 AM |

this picture sucks again, and the course isnt usually in great shape, but I played a US Amateur qualifier at Oak Valley in Advance last summer and the course couldnt have been any better. There were NO bad lies in the fairways, the greens were fast as hell...but not too hard, and everything just looked perfect.

Isnt True Blue that DLIII course?????
I'd shit on it before I played it...fuck that hole. 3/31/2006 1:39:31 PM |

I've played True Blue and Caledonia but when I played 1, if not both, they were so new that they kinda stunk. Tee's and Greens weren't in great shape and the I really like couses with old trees...which I don't remember these having.
There was a couse down there called Heritage that I really enjoyed. 3/31/2006 1:47:37 PM |

Yea, heritage was really nice too. Caledonia has some older trees on it, but true blue doesn't really have any, and no, I'm pretty sure True Blue isn't a DLIII course.
Litchfield CC was an older course and had a lot of old trees and stuff. Nice classic layout, but not up to the level of the other courses I listed. Gotta heck of a deal to play all these to because of my local ID (Which I still have) 3/31/2006 3:56:29 PM |

If I'm not mistaken, True Blue is a Mike Stranz course. He designed Caledonia, Tot Hill Farm, and Tobacco Road among others.3/31/2006 4:17:38 PM |
bclarke35 Veteran 211 Posts user info edit post |
^ they are all Mike Strantz designs, Interesting Style especially if you have played Caledonia and Tobacco Road, hard to believe it is the same guy. He just died within the last year also. 3/31/2006 8:50:04 PM |

Raleigh Country Club.
Early summer and fall....you cant beat it. Fast undulating greens, perfect fairways, its not too long, but hard as hell....compliments of Donald Ross. Too bad its private, and I probably wont ever play it again

Augusta National
but I also really like Pinehurst #2 and #8.
Raleigh CC is the only place I play around Raleigh, its the best course around here by far.

Well, there's two (Dogwood and Cardinal, I'm pretty sure).
Not sure which has the better reputation.

I've heard of the Dogwood course, idk about the other one. They have a lot of regional/state golf championships and qualifiers at ccnc, so i'm sure both courses are used and both are good.
My dad played one of them a few years ago with a guy who is a member at ccnc and pinehurst.
Then he invited me to go play #2 with them a few weeks later, but my dad decided school was more important...fuck that shit...i still havent played it. 3/31/2006 11:31:34 PM |
