The Talamore Way

Talamore

“ ended up really being a blessing in disguise, for less than I would have paid for a hotel room at Pinehurst Resort I had a two bedroom condo with all the accommodations of home.”

- Rob Spellman, “Pinehurst: The Talamore Way” as seen in the Golf Aficionado

fter spending four days in a row on Mid South as my daughter’s caddy during the 2018 Teen World Championships, I fell in love with the course. In fact, when we left town it felt like breaking up with a girlfriend, and boy she was a hottie! Mid South is an Arnold Palmer design still fresh off a complete renovation in 2017.

Mid South was only 25 years young when Talamore decided it

was time to renovate. The renovation was managed in-house and the team at Talamore did an amazing job. Having walked every inch of the course I can tell you they didn’t leave a stone unturned.

The course is in meticulous condition and the greens are back to their original size when the course opened in 1993.

Having played Pinehurst No 2. during the trip, I would say compared to Mid South, Pinehurst No. 2 is as flat as a pancake. It’s not just the terrain at Mid South but the course has a perfect mix of bunkers and water hazards that heighten the challenge while rounding out a world-class design.

Compared to other courses in the Pinehurst area, the terrain at Mid South is much more diverse.

The New Course at

talamore No ordinary golf course receives the kind of acclaim and international praise that has been given to The New Course at Talamore since it’s opening in 1991.

Talamore has been ranked in the forefront of outstanding courses in the Village of Pinehurst area.

Architect Rees Jones brought his considerable talents back to the Sandhills to design a course that would be visually striking and exceptionally enjoyable.

The result was a 7,020-yard course that was ranked in the Top Five New Courses in America and Best New Course in the South by Golf Digest.

mid south Located across from The New Course at Talamore, the exclusive Mid South Club was opened with a vision to be one of the Village of Pinehurst area’s premier private clubs. The 540 acres of longleaf pine forests, lakes and gently rolling hillside terrain allowed the legendary Arnold Palmer to put his stamp on the fabled Sandhills area with a design many say is simply his best work ever.

Ranked the #1 Private Course in the Area by Pinehurst Magazine and second overall only to Pinehurst No. 2. Golf Digest ranked the Mid South Course in the Top 20 Best Courses in NC. Complimenting the course is the 25,000 square foot clubhouse that provides sweeping golf and water views of the 9th & 18th holes.

A special signature design by golf’s legendary world traveler, Gary Player, the Holly course is the perfect compliment to the Magnolia.

The design utilizes the property’s many lakes, ponds Holly and streams that wind through numerous Course wooded areas throughout the course. Multiple tees present a variety of challenges, but the course is definitely playable for golfers of all skill levels.

SOUTHERN PINES GOLF CLUB

The Southern Pines Country Club was established in 1906 with the beginning construction of nine holes designed by the worldly-renowned golf course architect, Donald Ross. The additional nine holes were added in 1912 to complete this links-style layout. This layout has been largely untouched to this day. Also, we have NEW forward tees and NEW black tees...6 sets to accommodate all levels of players.
