About this course
The Orchard at The Olde Farm Golf Club is a Bobby Weed design located in Bristol, Virginia, in the southwestern corner of the state near the Tennessee border. Weed, a longtime associate of Pete Dye who established his own practice in the 1990s, brings his characteristic attention to strategic variety and playable challenge to this layout. The course sits in the rolling Appalachian foothills, where elevation changes and natural terrain features shape the routing and playing corridors. The design takes advantage of the property's topography, incorporating elevation shifts that affect club selection and create visual interest throughout the round. The layout typically features a mix of risk-reward opportunities and straightforward holes that reward accurate shotmaking. Weed's work often emphasizes width off the tee with strategic bunkering and green complexes that present multiple approach options depending on pin position and player skill level. The Olde Farm Golf Club operates as a private facility serving the Bristol area and the broader Tri-Cities region of Virginia and Tennessee. The course provides a home for competitive play among members while offering a setting that reflects the natural character of southwestern Virginia's landscape. The routing moves through varied terrain that includes wooded sections and more open areas, creating a diverse playing experience across eighteen holes.
