I have a theory about golfers. I’m talking about your everyday, average hacker. They may talk a good game about loving to play the great, difficult courses, but I believe what they’re really looking for is an easy course in great surroundings.

I found a great one here in Pinehurst, the Legacy Golf Links. It’s got it all – the looks, the feel, everything. Most easy courses are flat and featureless. Legacy has a lot of character – good elevation change, moving fairways, a good variety of holes, risk/reward, water carries, etc. It’s in great shape and in a beautiful, natural setting in the Sandhills – no homes – just outside Aberdeen. Plus, it’s fairly cheap.

The bad news is they’re starting to build, so if you want to play it in its current pristine shape, you should probably do it soon.

Look for the full review coming soon.
