Fun course to play pace of play was slow

Tee time was 4:10pm and did not finish 4 holes of play before darkness. Front 9 took us 45 min. to play two holes. There were groups walking and riding in 1, 2 and 4.

Terrific Value

Overall good experience. Nice place off the beaten path with decent amenities. I would like to mention that the Par 3 greens are brutal. So severely sloped given the small size and pins on ridges that make putting impossible.

Needs work

Fairways barely have any grass growing, very hard ground like concrete makes it tough to hit a good shot. The greens are fast as usual but were covered in leaves and dark green weeds that need to addressed asap. Very good grill and pace of play was good despite being packed.

Devil Root

I see an issue developing with the devil root weed.

Small clumps of foreign grass on green surface that can

knock putts off line. The roots of the clumps go deep,

so removing one by one probably not practical.

I hope the superintendent can find a spray or some way to get ahead of this. Overall, greens are still good, fast.

Relaxing no pressure golf

This was my first time to Wendell even though I live in Clayton. Never realized it was so close. Firth time out so the course served it purpose. Fairways were hard surface hard to get under the ball. The greens were challenging. Overall we had a great experience.

Nice course friendly staff no rush for pre game practice

They don't worry if you take time to putt and warm up. No range but 10 Matts with huge net. They don't rush you for your tee time. Only criticism is the greens aren't very big so accuracy is a must. Some greens are so slippery u have to get the ball to roll one rotation to keep it from rolling off the green.

Good little course

I played this course last week using golf now app and it is a nice little course. I played from the blue tees and it plays much longer than the scorecard shows. The course layout is rather interesting. This is not a fancy course, however. The cart path is riddled with cracks and spots of dirt, the Fairway has plenty of patches where grass just doesn't exist. You will definitely get your money's worth playing this course but just don't think you're golfing at the Raleigh Country Club or anything.
