Play a round in the morning and slip off to your favorite sports bar to catch the weekly PGA tournament in the afternoon. Most of all, just enjoy. But taking into consideration that there are over 70 tracks within an hour's drive of Charlotte, you would assume that local golfers still have one of the best selections of courses outside of Myrtle Beach, Pinehurst and Hilton Head. Some local golf professionals, however, see it differently. There aren't that many quality golf courses.
Regent Park is great golf course, and Springfield is going to be great.
But they could stand to have another one or two. Regent Park head professional Todd Lawton agrees with Holler's assessment of the lack of high-end daily fee golf in the area. Waterford is a great track down in Rock Hill, but they don't draw as much from Charlotte. Our play is up from last year, but we have to reinvent ourselves every year. As far as the Charlotte market goes, our price is a little better than the Ballantynes and Birkdales, and our course condition is as good, if not better.
