No. 7 is a brute of a par 3 - 183 yards over wetlands to a green that can't be seen from the tee. Another toughie is No. 3, a 607-yard par 5. This course offers golfers plenty of looks with its elevation changes, and mounded fairways and greens. Walking is allowed before 10 a.m. and after 5 p.m. weekdays, and after 5 p.m. weekends, but carts are recommended. The distance between the first green and the second tee is 250 yards uphill.
Most golfers take carts.
If you walk you're sure to feel pressured or will have to allow groups to play through. Pine Trace was built on 200 acres of previously undeveloped land in 1989. It has bent grass tees, fairways and greens. The rough is bluegrass and more. Management has paid attention to details.
