The Ross design / Hanse renovation is quite a 1-2 punch. I played right after the US Junior Am, boy was that course playing tough! Rough was beyond intense, and there was no easing into the rough… no first cut green-side, just a change from wicked quick greens to a disheartening rough.

Very fun / strategic layout. Lots of strategically placed bunkers and exceptional set of greens. Good hole variety and some of the best conditions I have played on. Super playable and courses uses the gently rolling property nicely - a lot of slightly elevated tee shots.

Course is really excellent after the renovation a couple years ago. Good variety of holes, greens are always great. Still some things that could be changed to make it even better but great as it is.

Not very long, but the greens are wild. They let Donny run wild with the green complexes and it makes for a very fun round. Very unique, tons of fun.

Not as good as the south, obviously. But still very fun. Just hard to live in the shadow of the south. Definitely the “members” course

I cannot wait to see what they do with the redesign. From what I understand they’re going to go back to the original Donald Ross idea of using the ravine from 18 more around the rest of the course. I think it’s probably not the best for PGA Tour play, but it’s fun.

The course is a little expensive for what it is and the pace of play is not incredible, but its well kept, the greens are consistent, the tee boxes are well kept.

Instead of talking about what’s missing (a lot) focus on what it has to offer (also a lot.) This is one of the better public options I’ve played from a design and playability perspective.

Great value and great pace. Played here many times. Not going to knock your socks off, but going to be the best value in the area. Pace of play is also very manageable.
