  • Monroe Country Club is a small, relatively quiet, public golf course just south of Charlotte and provides two very different sets of 9 with about 40 years of history between construction of the two! Follow along as this Perfectly Average Golfer takes on Monroe Country Club!

    I've had a run-in with a ranger or two myself :) Having said that, i'm glad that there are rangers on the course to speed folks up. But they have to use common sense. If you're not holding anyone up, as you say, then there's no need to talk to you no matter your pace. Regardless, 4 hours 15 minutes for that length of golf course, with a foursome, is good time. You won't get around a full-length golf course in 3.5 hours like a lot of guys want unless you're playing speed golf which is ridiculous. Good vid!

      Cheers my man! Yeah it was definitely a situation that I've never experienced before and that coupled with the reviews I saw on Google was worth mentioning.

    Greens are tricky, Have slopes that are sometimes difficult to read the line and get the break correct.
    Anyway, Rule number one ...Never be above the hole. Front pins are an additional 2 to 5 stokes more over the entire round.
    The only hole that is in my opinion of suspect design is #3. The green is narrow. The back third of the green slopes severely away from the approach . UNless a player can hit a wedge or short iron into the green, any shot landing on the middle to the back will roll off the back of the green.
    Other than that, its a pretty fun golf course.

    Front Ross 1936, back Tom Jackson 1986. There are actually 2 ranges. Short range next to hole three. Full Range on the end of the back nine. A lot of work done the last 6 months since your filming. Still best value in Charlotta area!!

    #4 is deceptive, Your comment said 'right is better than left, I guess you found out the opposite is true. I aim down the left edge of the tree line and hit a fade . If you get it past the crest of the hill, the ball will trundle on down . The goal is to leave it on the "shelf" about 50 yards short of the next drop off. Or if you can really bust it, leave the tee shot at the bottom of the hill to the flattest lie on this hole Leaves a mid to long iron to a green that sits on top of a hill.

    6th hole...Must be right center or its a three shotter.
    7th. Green has a rise in the center with a ridge that bisects the green from 1 o'clock to 7 o'clock. You ran it over the ridge. Not good.
    9th. This hole will confound even single digit index players.
    13, I've done the same thing. Hooked the tee shot and got real lucky.
    As to the issues with the staff....I've never experienced that type of treatment at Monroe.
    However, staff changes all the time. Some rangers take their jobs far too seriously. I am usually understanding with employees. I will clap back at workers who are impolite or disrespectful.
    Oh...Try Eagle Chase in Marshville. From Monroe CC, Its about 20 minutes northeast off NC 205 .
    Hilly course, Well maintained. Immaculate Diamond Zoysia greens.

    Where’s your home area? I’m in Las Vegas and have a smaller YT channel and love to travel golf. I’d love to play a round somewhere, match some matches…if you give a few strokes. 😂. Just got done playing Torrey South and TPC Scottsdale both in tournament conditions. Fun challenge. Great courses you’re playing.

    My brother-in-law and I played Eaglevail in Colorado last summer and had a similar experience. The staff were fantastic, but the marshal was a complete jerk. (You'll find lots of comments about him in their online reviews.) We were playing at a nice, even pace and weren't being pushed by anyone, but he kept coming up to our foursome, telling us to speed up and threatening to make us skip a hole. That sort of thing can really ruin an outing.

    The front 9 was designed by Donald Ross. The back 9 was designed by a different course designer, I believe Tom Jackson. That is why the front and the back are so different. Great course for the money, but it does get and stay really busy.

      Skybrook has just completed a bunker renovation. Sadly, the spring rack rate on weekends has exceeded $90.
