Ohiobucks Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 My good friend and I are heading down to Pinehurst, North Carolina this Thursday for a long golf weekend. 18 holes on Thursday, 36 on Friday, 36 on Saturday, head back home Sunday. We'll be playing these courses: Thursday - The Carolina, an Arnold Palmer design: The Carolina - An Arnold Palmer Designed Course - Whispering Pines Golf Friday - The Country Club of Whispering Pines (East and West courses): The Country Club of Whispering Pines - Whispering Pines, NC Saturday - back-to-back rounds at Tobacco Road, rated one of the top 10 hardest courses to play in America: Village of Pinehurst Area Golf | Tobacco Road Golf Club - A Mike Strantz Design I've played 3 times so far this spring, so I guess my game is good to go.

MCH Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Wish I could but I haven't even found the time to play at a course that is less than half a mile from my house! One of my New Year's resolutions was to play more golf, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Thanks for the thought Tom but I'm playing turkey guide to my son Saturday morning. Heading to NE MO Sunday to open the season there Monday. My buddy and I should get 18 holes in up there Monday or Tuesday afternoon though before we head home Wednesday afternoon. Sure sounds like you're going to have a fun filled trip. Hit um straight!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 Sounds like a blast Tom, have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gzilla45 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Looks to be an amazing couple of days of golf. Hopefully the weather is perfect for you. I wish my back would allow me to do something like that. I'd turn into a question mark trying to play that many holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobucks Posted April 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Well, we're back. What a great weekend of golf. The courses down there that we played were outstanding. Everybody is really nice as well, always quick with hellos, how are you doing, etc. Already looking forward to going back next spring. Here's a few pics of Tobacco Road Golf Course: Hole #1 from the tee Par 5 from the fairway. I birdied this hole the first time around, only a par the second time... My buddy Kevin teeing off on a par 3 Weather was perfect, upper 60's for out Thursday 18, mid 70's for our Friday rounds, and upper 70's for our Saturday rounds. Exceptional trip for the $$$.

Looks like you guys had a great trip! Awesome pics, looks like some challenging golf! I know what you mean about the $$$, my girlfriend and I just got back from Myrtle Beach a couple weeks ago. She kept saying before the trip, "it's only $399 for the week!" Yeah, for the room LOL. Didn't tally up the total cost between gas, food, beverages, shopping, etc. Wouldn't doubt it was close to a $2000 week. Oh well, we had fun, great to get away once in a while, can't be worried about the money if you want to have a nice getaway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevo72 Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Golf marathon anyone? Wish I could get back down there and play those. Last year I played World Tour all three 9s. Played TPC Myrtle Beach also. I like playing down there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
