Immaculate Beauty

Similar course to its sister course, Talamore. Relatively open off the tee. Rolly with nice elevation changes. Greens quick and smooth. Perfect conditions. More challenging than Talamore as water comes into play on 6 of the holes. The red boulders along the water's edge are visually stunning, highlighting the greens and water.

I played from the white tees...6170 yards, slope of 128, which was the perfect challenge. Tee to green I hit the ball very solid. My normal score is 83. I shot 42-42. Not the greatest putting day with 38 putts, three 3 putts.

GPS on carts. Friendly staff. Great pace of play. For the $75 we payed for an early morning Wednesday round, a great value. A must play. A 5 star course that was only eclipsed by our unique experience @ Tobacco Road.

Must play in Pinehurst area

No chipping green or practice bunker. Practice putting green was a good indicator of what on course greens would be like....fast and smooth. Honestly psyched me out a little. I played white tees on the front and a mix of white and blue on the back (#10, #11 & #17) as white tees too short on the back. Intended #14 also but forgot. My average score is 83. I shot 45-43. Struggled with 21 putts on the front. 16 on the back. What I should have done on these fast and smooth greens was to take a shorter backstroke but be sure to accelerate thru. I did the opposite.

Course conditions perfect. GPS units on the carts. Great layout with nice mix of left and right doglegs, nice elevation changes, mounding, sodwall bunkers. #18 only hole with water on it....have to hit your drive over a lake. Course open enough where you shouldn't honestly lose a ball. Primary challenge is around the greens. $90 for a Sunday afternoon round was well worth it.

My son & I played 4 solid courses while there. We ranked them from least to best.....Legacy, Talamore, Mid South, Tobacco Road. Legacy 4.5 stars, the rest 5 stars.

Early Start

Talamore has the best greens around. The are fast, roll true, but still hold on a good approach. Layout is good except I am not fond of the separation of fairways forcing you to hit less club to stay in the fairway with a longer approach. I get it just not a fan. Other than that this course is immaculate. Two putts are never a gimme here.

Fantastic everything!

Very fun course. Played the whites and it was manageable. From the tips would make it a challenge and almost a completely different experience. Staff was great and very welcoming for my first round there. I will be back.

Southern Pines Visit

I played the course on Thursday July 16. Very enjoyable and looking forward to playing it again when I return to visit my son. The greens were recently aerated and top dressed, but still in good shape. The White Tees give the mid handicapper plenty of challenges, but very playable. #9 and #18 are really nice holes finishing holes.

Great course rude pro shop

Course is amazing. Each hole is completely different and just beautiful. The guy working the pro shop was a complete a-hole. We arrived about a hour early for our 815 tee time to look around the shop and to warm up. While checking in he said if we wanted to go early to tee off immediately and I told him no we were going to warm up. One of my playing partners was getting ready to buy a ball marker and hat when he asked the guy if the balls were on the range or where we needed to get them. The guy looks at him and just ignores him. My buddy put the ball marker and hat down and we walked out after checking in.

Beautiful course

Enjoyed the layout. The holes have a lot of variety and offer a wide range of shot choices. Not repetitive.. Even though the course was recently aerified it was in good condition. Look.forward to another visit.

Can’t go wrong playing Talamore

This is a course all the great things one would look for when playing golf. It has a great variety of holes, including a huge starting par 5, varied and challenging yet exciting par 3s and a mix of par 4s that gives you many options for how you want to play them. So the layout and the beauty of the course is top notch. We happened to play the course about a week after aeration but the conditions and shape of the greens were still great. In fact the aeration didn’t really factor at all Into the round. In addition the staff were friendly and welcoming and I truly believe that that fact can really help your day at the course start of on the right foot. We certainly felt welcome and really appreciated that they even gave us extra ice to carry on an especially hot day..

Talamore

The round at Talamore was both challenging and satisfying. The course was in spectacular condition. The greens were moderately fast and very smooth. The Talamore staff were all friendly and professional. The layout was excellent with holes that turned both right and left. The length of the par threes varied and were manageable. The key is to select a set of tees that match the ability of the golfer. The overall round was a pleasure.
