The Course Has Improved
The course has improved tremendously.
Wish For Better Conditions
I'm visiting from Colorado and used to live on Charlotte 8 years ago. Wanted to play Divide for ol' times sake and although I enjoyed being out w my buddy, the Divide left some disappointments. The course conditions were disappointing. Some parts of the fairways were bare and around the greens were thin and/or muddy. Tee boxes left some room for better manicure.
Staff was excellent and I enjoyed playing in the Charlotte area again. We are playing 3 rounds over 3 days, so looking fwd to more golf!
Only played the back nine
This is a lovely course. the 18th hole is a killer. We had a great deal from Golf Now, so I wouldn't complain. The front nine was closed, and i don't know if that was indicated until I received my receipt. If it was, I missed it. It was no problem though. We just played the back nine twice. We had the course to ourselves. It was muddy but nothing can be done about that.
Good course for a hot deal.
The was in alright condition. The green were slow and kinda eaten up with divot marks. The tee boxes are a work in progress but the reviews I had read before the round had said the same thing so I knew what I was getting in to there. Still had a god time.
Solid Course
It's a fair value with decent greens for the most part. A couple of greens have some issues around the edges of them. The tee boxes are a work in progress on 3 or so holes. The fairways are in good shape. I would say if you haven't played here in a couple of years it's worth the trip back. The course is in much better shape and you can see the grounds crew is working on the areas that aren't so good right now.
Great course
The greens were recovering from being punched, but rolled true just a little slow. We teed off at 7:02am and played in 3 1/2 hours. The staff is great and they are working hard to keep this course in good shape despite the lack of rain. The tee boxes are being redone and will be nice once complete.
Six hour round!!!!
I have played the Divide on several occasions. This will be the last. The previous time I played the course the greens were punched and this time they were punched. There was no notification of this on the website. They were playable that's not the reason I will not play this course again. The reason I will not play this course is pace of play. I paid for 18 but only played 9. It took me 3 hours to play nine holes. There was no marshall on the course to speed up play and the course staff in the pro shop weren't the friendliest group. Great course layout so this is a shame. I will not play this course again.
Not in good shape....
I have played the course numerous times. I like the layout and previously have found the course to be in decent condition. Unfortunately, the course the day that I played was in terrible condition. It appears that the greens had been recently aerated but even that doesn't account for how bad some of the greens were. Additionally, the tee boxes were in extremely bad condition. There were actually some temporary tee boxes set up to account for the poor conditions of the tee boxes.
Punched Greens
Greens were punched. Probably the reason for the cheap Saturday morning rate. Some greens worse than others with sand still covering them. Group in front was real slow, always behind pace of play, told by Ranger on 1 green and picked it up but slowed again on the back nine. Course has been in better shape......
Getting Good Again.
The Staff has changed recently and they are a lot better than years past.
The course is getting updated. The tee boxes were moved. Looks like they are getting ready to redo them.
Greens were in good shape and bunkers cleaned out.
Good value
The greens & fairways were in nice shape but the tees were in poor condition , the staff were very friendly as were the three local players I was paired with. If you are visiting the area as I was this course is definitely worth considering the fairways are wide the greens are fair & the tees are spaced so everyone can play whatever their handicap. I'm a 4 handicap shot 79 & enjoyed the experience.
Lots of Rough Edges at The Divide
Hadn't played The Divide in several years since the Carolina Trail debacle. Gave it another try today to see what it is like under new management. Most of the staff were friendly and accomodating, with the exception of the person who seemed to be in charge. He was the only one behind the counter when I went in to pay, but he was too busy to wait on me. After our group made our way to the first tee at our tee time, the group before us was just teeing off. The aforementioned person came out and informed us that there was a threesome waiting to tee off before us and then we would go off. We were a twosome and he paired us up with another twosome that were only playing the front 9. When we asked the threesome what their tee time was, they told us the same time as our tee time. I'm not sure how you book five players for the same tee time, but what do I know. As for the course itself, it has some rough edges as well. The greens are quite lush, as a previous reviewer stated. They are relatively free of ball marks. They are however quite grainy. Putts with the grain were lightning fast, while against the grain putts could be struck hard enough to get to the cup. The bunkers all had plenty of sand in them and were in good shape. Roughs and green surrounds were mostly weeds. The fairways were thin with a few bare spots here and there. I noticed fertilizer had been spread on most of them, so it seems as if the course is working to improve them. Tee boxes were a mixed lot. Some were good, while others were bare dirt. The tees on the par-3 seventh hole had been moved up to where the longest shot was 110 yards. Hopefully the conditions at The Divide will continue to improve as it is a good layout with ample room off most tees and greens with quite a bit of movement.
First timer with low expectations
Having lived nearby for 10 years I've heard all the bad reports regarding course conditions. As such I've never bothered to even try it.
I don't know how bad it was at its worst, but it's now fairly decent and by playing preferred lies you can usually find a good lie through the green. The greens have two different kinds of grass growing in them and were fairly slow. Again not too bad and not the worst I've seen this year (award that to Highland Creek).
There were plenty of greens staff out there working hard, so I reckon the course is improving nicely.
The layout was surprisingly good and I'll be back.
Its getting better
The greens are starting to fill in nicely. The rains last week helped soften them up. Course management is making a real effort to put the course back in shape. Repair is still needed on tee boxes, but you can see the work has started. If you have been disappointed in this course in the past it may be time to give it another chance.
The pace of play was okay. Our foursome finished in about 4.5 hrs on Saturday morning.
Good greens, nice layout
Pretty good shape for this time of year although the blue and gold tee boxes were 'growing in.' Too many limbs hanging down on cart path. Pruning is past due. Greens were slow but ran true and not unexpected for May. Overall, a good course for the value.
This is well maintained course
Course was wet cart path only but good round
Go elsewhere
Very letdown by The Divide. Condition of the course was very poor. Needs water and seeding in many places. Tee boxes were in terrible condition. One tee box wasn't even a tee box, just a grass patch. Greens were incredibly slow. And you could celebrate another birthday the pace of play was so slow. 5 hours plus time of play. Will not be returning anytime soon.
Greens better than last time
Played Saturday morning. It has been dry but we gom some rain Friday night. The course had no problems absorbing it and was actually dry. The greens are looking better as they were in bad shape last time l played here. Pace of play was ok. Only a couple of time did the group behind us have to wait but our foursome was able to keep pace with the three some ahead of us so l am sure they had no place to go. My only negative was there was no beverage cart out on the course.
