ELEVATE YOUR GAME
If you have ever played golf in the Carolina Mountains, the pages inside will be a treasure. If you have wanted to play golf at a higher level, this will be your guide. You can learn about the best public and semi-private 18-hole courses to play. Or you can read about two of the nations finest course architects, the late Donald Ross and the great Tom Fazio our toughest 18 holes where you can rent llamas as caddies or how to send used clubs to the military serving in the worlds largest sand traps.
Yes, your golf ball will travel further on tee shots in the higher elevations. But the remarkable scenery will be a distraction.
Our courses include boulders larger than your vehicle, streams winding through many fairways, lots of ponds, the largest lake in the state in terms of shoreline, even a few flat spots for aiming at those undulating greens usually above or below you. And gorgeous waterfalls.
Oh, dont forget to enjoy the views!
