Legacy Golf Links #18
Legacy Golf Links - Hole #18 "The Bear" - Par 4
The Legacy Golf Link, a scenic course and a delight to all who play, is the host for the first tournament of the 2011 season.
"We hear a lot of, 'I shot my best score here,' from golfers," said Legacy's head professional, "but it is not a walk-over by any means." Most of you played here last year and can come back for redemption.
In designing The Legacy, Jack II worked with Jim Lipe, a long-time lead designer with Golden Bear Design whose credits include Williamsburg National. In the summer of 2000, Jack II became president of Golden Bear Design.
There are NO houses anywhere in sight of the course. "Golfers like it because they feel they are out there in the woods with nothing but themselves and the golf course." The heavily wooded land parcel with several large lakes meandering through it afforded Nicklaus ample opportunities to sculpt holes with scenic vistas through the pines.
The site, which includes four lakes and connecting streams, was once a farm where catfish were harvested. Water comes into play on no less than 12 holes including all four par 3s, none of which measures over 191 yards from the tips.
Come gauge your competitive golf game and sign-up early for this tournament as both the GolfWeek Amateurs and Senior Tour players from the 3 cities play and it is always a sell out.
There are many ways to register and to sign-up to play, call or email Bruce at 336- 495-6556 or behgolf@aol.com or go to the website.
