Review: Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club

January 24, 2023

One of several classic Ross designs near Pinehurst, Mid Pines is a historic gem full of strategy and excellent individual holes. While I prefer Pine Needles, many consider Mid Pines the second best course in the area and it is certainly well-worth a play.  … More Review: Mid Pines Inn & Golf Club

Review: Southern Pines Golf Club

December 21, 2021

Always home to a lovely routing on wonderful terrain, Kyle Franz’s stellar renovation now makes Southern Pines one of the best courses in Pinehurst and an absolute must play for anyone in the area. I expect this course to shoot up in the rankings in coming years and cannot recommend it highly enough. … More Review: Southern Pines Golf Club

The 15th hole at Sand Hollow is frequently thought of as Utah’s rendition of Cypress Point’s famous 16th. At 191 yards, this is an epic hole playing over a chasm to a narrow sliver of green with little room to miss. It is one of the most unique par threes I’ve played.

Review now posted for Split Rock Golf Course in the Bronx!
Review now up for Mid Pines Golf Club! Mid Pines is a great public course in the Pinehurst area designed by Donald Ross in 1921 and renovated by Kyle Franz in 2013. A perennial top 100 public course in the US, this layout features excellent greens and a number of world-class holes (especially its par fours).
The 337 yard 10th hole at We-Ko-Pa Saguaro is a really fun risk/rewark hole that features two templates: a Reverse Cape on the teeshot and Lion’s Mouth by the green. This is certainly one of the easier holes out there and one of several holes on the course that provides the golfer numerous options.
Had the fortune of playing We-Ko-Pa’s Saguaro Course last Spring, the first round for me in Arizona. Known as one of the top courses in the blossoming Scottsdale golf scene, this Coore/Crenshaw design is thoroughly enjoyable with minimal houses, an easily walkable, intimate routing, and plenty of strategy and variety. The conditioning and scenery were also fantastic.
