You have to be precise on this downhill hole. Hole 11 – 186 yards – Par 3 – Mother Nature This shot back up the hole is a great view. If you go up the left the wall doesn’t come into play. A good drive will clear the wall and find a large landing area. The starter of the backside has a stone wall crossing the fairway. Hole 10 – 397 yards – Par 4 – The Great Wall The green has plenty of slope as seen below. If you go through the fairway your angle can be blocked. The playing corridors tighten on this tee. The green is sloped from back to front and has two tiers. This tee shot is one of the most difficult on the course. Hole 8 – 514 yards – Par 5 – Balfour’s Ridge A grass bunker guards the backside of the putting surface. You can somewhat make out the green below. There is a small creek in front of the green. There is a large area right of the green to bailout.Ī good tee shot should clear the bunkers and hill in the distance. Hole 6 – 155 yards – Par 3 – Easy Does It There are plenty of hazards around the green with water and sand. The best tee shot will be played up the right. The second of back to back par fives is much longer than the previous hole. The photo below gives you a good look at the hole. It is uphill all the way with a small stream crossing the fairway. Hole 4 – 493 yards – Par 5 – Fairway to Heaven There is the large bunker you can see on the right. A stream runs in front, left, and behind the green. The green is tucked back in the hollow and the undulation on the fairway may cause a sidehill lie for the approach. That shouldn’t be a problem, but the creek continues up the left side and wraps behind the green. There is a minimal carry over a creek here on this dogleg left. There is a small creek to the left of the green and a grass bunker on the right. You start the round off with a downhiller where you want to keep the drive up the left side. I played the Outlaw Black tees and all yardages will be from that set. Check him out on Instagram and at his website. Thanks again to Brian for the photos of Tot Hill Farm Golf Club. As I mentioned before, it is a bit out of the way so there may not be much going on, but don’t quote me on that. I don’t recall spending a ton of time in the clubhouse to see the vibe of the place as we were trying to get back to Pinehurst for our hotel. You can see from the mix of pars that the course never gets monotonous. It was prototypical Strantz which means it was super imaginative. Tot Hill Farm Golf Club is a bit away from the area but was well worth the drive. I do know that it was on one of the many trips to the Pinehurst area for a weekend of golf with the wife. Mustang Gold: 4,556 yards, Par 72, 63.8 Rating/103 Slope (Men’s), 67.9 Rating/118 Slope (Women’s)Īs mentioned at the top, I don’t remember the year I played this gem.Location: 3185 Tot Hill Farm Road, Asheboro, North Carolina.
