Needs better managing.

T^his course is a great layout but in rough condition right now. Not unbearable but could be so much better.The main problem we had was we were a foursome and had to allow 6 groups behind us play through because these groups were a single 4 twosomes and then another single. We could have played in a much shorter time if we did not spend so much time waiting on these groups to go by. A lot of walkers so play was really slow.

When they have greens it will be great

This is a well designed, pretty Tom Jackson course with a lot of elevation changes. Its rates are very good (especially if you're walking, you won't find that rate on Golf Now but it's $15 weekdays, $20 weekends#. They are closing the course later this summer to completely redo all the greens and that is exactly what it needs #besides sand in the bunkers, many of them are now dirt#. When that is done, this could be a very fun course to play. Right now the greens are fast #like 14 on the stimpmeter) only because they are brown and mostly dead grass. The contours are pretty steep sometimes but would be very interesting to play with actual grass on them. Good practive facility, very friendly staff. Come back next spring and check it out.

Hot deal worth the money and travel!

Purchased a "Hot Deal" for this course, $10 for 18 and a cart!!! Heard about it from a friend so decided at that price I couldn't lose. The course had received a lot of water over the last week so it was cart path only and had some wet spots from tee to green. Overall the course was well maintained and an easy play from the whites. Next time will move to the blues for sure. Hitting 5 wood of most tee's left me with 100-125 to the green which didn't offer a ton of variety in shots. Did not hit my 4-7 irons at all, 8 iron is a 150 yd club for me and I hit it off the tee on a couple of par 3's, but not once from the fairway. Greens rolled true so that was a definite positive. Fun, short course that's worth the 45 minute drive to play. Word of advice, juniors play for free when you purchase tee times through the club. However, when using Golfnow, junior prices are $15 unless you purchase their time as well.

Very nice course. Fun and challenging.

Very friendly greeting to start in the clubhouse. And the course had a lot of rain recently but it was still in very good shape. For the money it was a great place to play, I will definitely be playing it again very soon.

This course needs a new maint. staff.

This course needs a new maint. staff. The greens, tee boxes, and bunkers were horrible. Even the ruff was worse than some cow pastures. I was very unsatisfied.

Greens needed work

There were too many bare spots on many of the greens which detracted from a great golf experience. I hadn't played Links of Tryon in a long time and was a little disappointd. The course is a nice layout and fun to play.

Still early season, but the course played well.

This is a fun course to play. I played on a damp, cloudy day but the course was still very playable. It also has some very nice mountain views. The course itself has some humps and bumps like a Scottish
track. The fairways have playable doglegs and the greens are an undulating mix. The tee choice lets you bite off as much as you can chew. I would recommend this course to all levels of abilities. There are other local courses like Village Greens in Gramling/Inman SC and Cherokee Valley in Tigerville SC not far from Links O' Tryon that are fun to play also. These are approximately 20 mins. apart.

Lovely setting and challenging course.

Beautiful setting; can see mountains in the distance. Rolling hills and fairways. Front nine greens were not in good shape; could be result of last summer's conditions? Back nine in better condition. Balls hit very hard and would bounce, roll, etc. off greens; but then grass growth a little behind in the season. Best chicken salad sandwich and staff very friendly.

Nice Course -- good for average golfers

Links o Tryon is a very nice course. I actually shot a 79 which is about 5 strokes below my average. I was hot that day -- not saying that the course is easy. It does have some pretty challenging holes. It will be beautiful in a few weeks when everything is in bloom.

Not a bad layout, "IF" the cart paths were driveable and the greens were replaced!!!

The worst condition of a golf course-- T-boxes, cart paths, bunkers and greens that I have ever played!!! I have never seen a course in such disrepair. PERIOD, that was still open.

Great bermuda grass course

This course is in great shape for late winter. Even though the Bermuda is still dormant the course has almost no weeds. It's in great shape for the time of year.

A course that allows you to use every club in your bag. A great value cost-wise. Definitely a hidden gem and a great location from north or south carolina.
