Moves to the Top of My Favorites List

Golfed this course for the third time today. Admittedly, this has an “older” course look, but at an almost 7200 yard par 72 (championship - orange tees).. this course has quickly moved to the top of my favorites list.

Challenging greens with two 600+ yard par 5 holes. Absolutely enjoy the slopes from the tee box, through the fairways, to the greens.

No better way to finish your round than a slight dog leg right, leading to a hazard and then straight up to the green. For intermediates, you’ll be challenged to dot the green in three.

I only wish I had discovered this course much earlier in the season!!

If you haven't shot a round at Big Run, do so... you’re in for a rewarding challenge. Oh, and don’t forget to try one of the homemade chocolate chip cookies as you transition to the back 9.

Glen Eagles White Course

I’ve been golfing this course for 10+ years, both for fund raisers and competitive foursomes. This is one of my favorite “value” course and I always prefer white Over the red course for its extremely challenging greens.

There are no “gimmie” par 3s, especially if you play from the blues.

Even with the drought we’ve had this year, the course is still well maintained. My only complaint is the harder ground adjoining the fairways, but... if you keep it straight... you don’t have this problem.

Thanks GECC. You have my business for years to come.
