Tobacco Road in North Carolina, USA is easily one of our favorite golf courses to play in the world. If you haven’t done so already, put this one on your golf buddies trip list.
Ridiculously hard just for the sake of being ridiculous. Royal New Kent (near Richmond, VA) is equally ridiculous. That said, both are fun play once you accept the fact you’ll have at least two snowmen on your card. 81 was low gross in the member-guest one year at Royal New Kent. 😂
I’ve played this place. Got family in Sanford. I don’t think I’ve ever had a golf course humiliate me but this one did. I’m a 7 handicap. Shot 120 😮 Place will eat your lunch and you’ll be late for dinner.
Never played axe cliff?…. all but 6 ish are blinds one bell and a hell of a lot of balls, oh and don't drop on the beaches there nudist 😅 see you in the club house
Jesus Christ this place is $280-300 a round for one player. I am not that good at golf so this place isn’t for me. But, thought I’d let you scratch golfer know, $300 for a round of 18. I like to go golfing with my friends after 50 hours of hard ass work as a mechanic and drink beer, drive a cart all stupid, and let people play through me. This course would be cool if I was a square
Was not a big fan. All the tee markers look alike (played hybrid tees), the GPS on your cart beeps every 2 seconds going 5 mph on some holes. There are a few good holes, but play Pine Needles instead for the same price. 100x better course.
I’ve read complaints and negative reviews about this course blah blah blah, and I just want to say, if you don’t absolutely love this experience, it’s your problem. The course is a GEM, and if I could replay any course, this would certainly be in the convo. For those debating, do it.

Mike Strantz design along with Tot Hill Farm in Asheboro
This is one Micheal Strantz best layout. It is worth the day.
Played it. Couple bad holes very different
Thought it was a motocross track at first lol
Enjoy your 7hr round
No O.B.? Challenge accepted. 😊
Golf architect.. "I have a lot of land and not enough imagination…Oh wasted areas"

A top course in the world no doubt about it.
ok middle of bum-f**k nowhere for us UK golfers
No thanks. I can lose balls on my local public course.
RIP Mike Strantz. Hero’s are forgotten but legends never die!
Oh my goodness!!! TBR, I miss you. We lived in Pinehurst, NC and of the courses in our awesome little town, TBR was top 5. ❤❤❤
Course blows.
I've played Tobacco Road a few times, but not in a few years. Very nice course. They've raised their prices. Now $280. Not worth $280.
Def a 100 + day lol
My best friend holds the course record here

That had better be in NC. Stealing our tobacco road wouldn't be cool if not.

No out of bounds?!! Booking the trip
Love the waste area. Blind shots I hate. 1 or 2 a course ok. 5 os starting to get stupid.
Shut up and take my money!!😂 no but for real this is a course I have to play at least once in my life

280 for this junk😂 people are delusional
Years ago played a course called The Pit. Is this the same course?
This course will beat you down
Looks like an open needs to be played here
We will be visiting
@bobdoessports
That place doesn’t look fun at all😂
Great looking motocross track!
I respect Strantz and many of his designs are excellent. This one however, is a love it/hate it. I hate it.
would love to play this its only an hour away from me but $275-$300 is over kill for me personally
