An unbelievable golf course

Phil (Aroda, VA) says:
Tobacco Road was the most fun course I have ever played. It was both physically and mentally challenging and made you really think about each shot. I think it is a must play for anyone visiting the Pinehurst area. I look forward to playing it again next year.

Steve (Hartsville, SC) says:
Interesting course. Too many blind shots.

Fred (Laurel, MD) says:
I'm not a fan of "tricked out" courses.
Commented on 10/14/2008
Tim (Bowie, MD) says:
The course is too tricked up with blind shots, ridiculous location of some greens and man-made obstacles.
Commented on 10/06/2008
John (Oswego, IL) says:
Course is conducive to slow play because of difficulty and blind shots. Golf course staff did everything they could to help players and give directions on where to hit shots.

Noel (Sugar Grove, IL) says:
This was by far the best course we played. You need to insist that your customers play this course, even though it is a short drive from Pinehurst. It will be a course like no other they have played. We rank it right next to Wolf Creek in Mesquite, Nevada as must plays.

Omar says:
For first timers it's a bit odd not to know where you are hitting your shots to. But still a great course to play.
Commented on 10/30/2006
Terry (Glen Mills, PA) says:
A true test for any golfer. The lower rating on the course conditions and pace, due to the wet grounds. This course would be an extraordinary test in drier conditions. One of the best public course (resort or other) I've played anywhere in 40 years.

Tom (Prospect, KY) says:
Some members felt the course was too "tricked up" but I personally enjoyed it. A great challenge ...
