Course Description:

Based on Donald Ross's 1945 layout; today's Myers Park Country Club is as close as ever to what Mr. Ross originally proposed in his own re-design of the club all those years ago. The golf course is a parkland layout with a variety of holes in terms of direction; length; and elevation change. The result is a great rhythm of holes which will always keep the golfer engaged. Where natural features do not interfere; openings to greens allow for either a ground approach or an aerial approach. This allows golfers as many options as possible to negotiate the defined quadrants within many of the putting surfaces in an attempt to gain the lowest score possible. Ross bunkering along the fairways and surrounding most greens demands strategic choices be made starting at the tee based upon the golfer's own appetite for risk and the location of the pin on any particular day. The name of the game is to negotiate these hazards as well as the natural roll of the land to gain an advantage in typical Donald Ross fashion. The golf course at Myers Park Country Club is the epitome of subtle strategic challenge that keeps the members attention from the first tee to the end of the round. In fact; the eighteenth hole is the ultimate climax as it simply asks the golfer to cut the corner over a pair of fairway bunkers to gain both a better angle into the green and a closer approach. All who decide to play safe will find an ample fairway of rumpled ground but still requiring an accurate approach. A great finish to a golf course whose strength lies in its variation of options for all.
