Atascocita Golf Club - Pinehurst/Point Course

First time playing at Atascocita. Paired with someone who was familiar with course which helped.

Not a good time to review because it was cartpath only. It takes about 4 to 5 days to dry out after a rain. It was alright if you have good legs. Old farts should stay away if limping or have COPD. Will still go maybe 4 days after rain. That’s life.

Pace of play was a little rushed, but the course was challenging and well maintained. Clubhouse staff and Marshall were great. 1st time playing this course. Great day on the course!!

This course would be much better to play on if the sprinklers weren't drenching the grounds as players are on the course. I'm not a grounds keeper, but it seems like auto timers on the sprinkler system, that came on a few hours before the first tee time, would reduce the sloppy mess & water puddles we have to walk through. Also, it would be nice to see water stations back on the course, since all other Covid measures have been removed. (masks, flag pole & bunker rake access) Greens were in good condition, other than too wet from sprinklers. A roving Marshall would be a nice addition, to keep the large groups moving.

Atascocita has always been a favorite track….but the work they have done to Bing it back” has worked…Loved playing there today.

I checked in and hit range balls and got to the tee box @ 11:20 my tee time and was told that I was paired with another 2some and had to wait. No one on the fairway or green of #1. After 10 minutes or so waiting and no carts approaching in sight I was also explained to the reason being single approaching big groups tend to rush them. Also told a decent timed round was not possible due to big groups ahead. I guess fast play and good golf manners are nonexistent now.

I’ve played the course many times and love the hospitality and shape the course is in which is the reason I didn’t mind driving 45+ minutes to play. I feel the starter could’ve handled the situation a little differently. Now I’m out of the $$ for the round and gas to get there and back.

Overall I have always enjoyed playing Atascocita. I have friends and family who live near by. I sometimes join my friends for 18 holes and or practice....Pinehurst and Point however are nice and I've played them on several occasions., including today.

We play this course fairly regularly. Today the pace was glacial. No Marshall intervention to pick up speed. There was no cart service or water on the course. And no notification that there was neither. Needless to say we left parched and hangry after a 4.5 hour round.

Played the point to Shores rotation. The starter was a great guy and asked if the singles did not mind pairing up. Actually 3 singles. The course was in really good shape but the rough was a little high and a few leaves slowed us down to find errant shots, The greens were in nice shape rolling around an 8-9 speed. the Beverage cart made it by us at least 4-5 times. All in all a good day on the Big A.

Course was in good shape except rough was thick and I was in it a bunch of times. Fairways in good shape and greens were rolling smooth at a medium- fast speed. But the greens are still too small. Tough targets to hit. Played Pinehurst to Shores . Beverage cart was visible a couple of times and staff and marshals were friendly. All in all a good afternoon. The hot deal was well worth the fee I paid..

Course in good shape!!Very friendly staff!! We have a really good time!!We will be back again!!!
