Stretched over the rolling hills and deep into the deep shaded valleys, the golf course winds in and out of as…See More

We will visit this renovated and rebuilt course once again. The club installed Champion Bermuda greens and tif turf fairways and re-opened for business abut 18 months ago. The Ellis Maples design previously hosted numerous local and regional events including ACC Championships. Plays nicely with hickories at 5,267 yards from the Silver Tees. Team and individual competitions are planned. Green fees with cart will be $32.00. Foods and drink available. A 9:40 shotgun start is anticipated.See More

Hello all and thank you for accepting me into this organization. I have just recently discovered and acquired some hickory golf clubs and have found a new spark for the game of golf with these. Looking for any information and direction as I am in the midst of putting together my first set. Any information and help would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to hopefully be involved in future events and getting to know some of you.

Thanks

To lose a parent is to lose touch with…

Roaring Gap a Hit Again
Jay Harris once again hosted a wonderful Hickory event at Roaring Gap CC. The course is a treat to pay using hickories and the greens are terrific. Weather was perfect for the 24 players and this is something you should not miss next September. Thanks to Jay for all his efforts.
