Best condition ever!

We've played LoT about a dozen times in the last year. This is by far the best condition it has been in during that time. Greens rolled true, slow, but true. Fairways were in great shape. Rough was awful, which is what rough is supposed to be like! Tee boxes were in great shape as well. VERY PLEASED WITH THE CONDITION! Staff is always kind, from pro shop to those maintaining condition. If you're within an hour, it's worth the drive.

Nice course, greens inconsistent

We really enjoy playing this course. It's about a 45 minute drive, so it's definitely worth it. Some of the greens are in tremendous shape, some need a little help. My biggest complaint is the cart paths, you may need a spinal adjustment after riding 18. We've played it enough to learn the rough spots. Great little course and staff is always kind. Go play it!

Try it at Tryon

Course layout varies enough to keep you interested. Fairways are some of the best I have played on. Greens for the most part are in excellent shape. Well worth the time.

Not much bang for the buck

This course used to be a hidden gem. It was a bit of a drive, but what you got for $29-$30 on a Saturday morning tee time was exceptional. Out of nowhere they started charging $40+ to play here. It's not worth driving almost 45 minutes outside of Greenville city limits to play this course for the same price as premier courses in the heart of Greenville.

The round - Course has true greens and the fairways are decent. Several holes feature bare spots and some eye sores, again, not what I'd want to pay $40 a round for. The pace of play was good, everybody was kind and willing to let others play through. The weather was great that day.

Staff - Very friendly. Minus one groundskeeper who thought he had a badge on. Apparently the 90 degree rule doesn't apply to the 11th hole. He followed us from 11-12th to make sure we were following his demands. Aside from this guy, everybody was top notch. Including the bar staff at the turn, very friendly and willing to help.

Overall - My group spends a good amount when we golf. We usually have drinks at the turn, and after the round. We certainly don't pinch pennys, but I can't get past spending $40 to drive so far out of the way. The course was priced perfectly at $30. I don't think I am coming back until they are able to come down to that price.....

Great Layout

The layout was great and the Pro Shop and Restaurant were very nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. We were there on a hot dry day for May, it was almost 90 degrees and the course was very hard and dry, the ball would bounce 20 feet in the air off the middle of the fairway. The greens were very dry and patchy and needed work, the putting was tough. But I like the layout, it had water in allot of places and the greens were hidden and sometimes sunken. It would play well for low scores for long hitters. Overall very nice but they need rain, we'll play there again even though its about an hour and 15 min drive.

Horrible experience all the way around.

There was a time when this was one of the premier public courses in the county, but those days have long past. They greens that they just installed a couple of years ago are half dead. The staff were nice enough, but the pace of play was absolutely atrocious. There is zero course etiquette, and zero enforcement of pace from the starter. After it taking over an hour to play three holes on the back, I just left. A three hour pace for nine holes is inexcusable, and I will not be making the effort to drive back out here. I'd rather overpay to play elsewhere.

a worthwhile experience

The Links suffered through some time of neglect but seems to be on the mend. The greens roll true though some are a little splotchy; the fairways are in good shape though some rain would help fill them out . Tee boxes are all right and there are sufficient choices so that you can choose a comfortable length to play. Not the least to recommend the Links is its location in the foothills of the Blue Ridge, which provide delightful eye candy as you enjoy the course. The friendly, accommodating staff and tasty snack bar contribute to a good day of golf.

They've lost their greens

I've played there for 25 years on a very irregular basis. Most of my play at Links was from '92 to 2000. It was one of my favorite courses in the whole county. They had the best greens around and the layout was great. Hadn't been there in the last several years and was really looking forward to it. It was sad - they've virtually lost several of their greens. Cart paths are in rough shape. Hope they get it back but not a very good course at moment.

First time not the Last time

I had just never played here & always wanted to. No one was one the course due to a HS Tournament finishing up. Very straightforward layout. No huge trouble. Very nicely kept. Greens had been freshly dressed with sand- so they were not at optimum conditions the day of my visit. I will be back soon to play again!!

Links O Tryon

First time playing this course. Holiday weekend so naturally somewhat crowded, but we moved at a fair pace. Early spring, grass is still sparse in fairway. Should be end of April, really green. Greens are excellent, lots of slope and roll of greens, but putt true. Really looking forward to a return trip soon. Fantastic layout. Now have a sence for couse layout. Some hidden shots, need to ride out fairway and look at your target area. Take time to walk to green and look at a target for pitch shots. Wish there was Red, White and Blue flags for green depth. All Black and White flags. Still a pleasant day of play.

Nice Value-Consistent COnditions

It is always fun to play here. The conditions, even in mid-winter-were good enough to have confidence in fairly consistent put speed and the fairways were fine though the grass was dormant. The fairways are very generous, and the course is not very long, but the greens are well protected and will require a good short game. Great value for the money and the course employees are always friendly and helpful.

Great course

Enjoyed the course thoroughly. Greens were fast and well taken care of. Impressed with the overall condition of the course especially considering the cold and rainy weather in the past two weeks during which other courses have really slacked off in green management.

Great course for the price

We played Links O Tryon after several days of rain and the course was in surprisingly good shape. The grounds crew have done a great job of keeping the fairways clear. The greens were also in great shape. The bar in the clubhouse is always a welcome stop after a round. The bartender was very nice and a welcome addition.
