Going to Charlotte for work next week Feb 19-21, and will have time to play in the morning on 2/21. Couple of questions for anyone from that area, what kind of weather to expect that time of year, and also, any good public courses that aren't going to burn a hole in my pocket? Any feedback would be much appreciated!

I am relocating to the area... I will be going down there for a preliminary visit the last week of February and first week of March.

Rockey River is great... just North of Charlotte and in Concord...

Ballantyne is supposed to be good...

A little further north, the Warrior is nice, excellent greens.

Birkdale is supposed to be good...

Vedict Ridge is supposed to be the most visually stunning, but it is also a fairly tough from what I hear...

This guide has some helpful reviews...

played this one too, and it is definately worth a look...

As other poster said... weather could be anywhere from 40-70... but usual is mid-high 50's for a high.

enjoy

I used to live in Mooresville, NC, which is about 20 miles north of Charlotte. I have played Rocky River a few times and absolutley love that course. I am not sure but I think they have played a few Senior Tourneys there. Its a challenging course that I think you will enjoy. Birkdale is also a good course for a change of pace, but Rocky River is fantastic.

Old Sycamore is good old layout, Skybrook usually has nice greens and tough approach shots.

      Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
