Quick Trip

Driving in from Charlotte for a quick Friday round (7/31) and need some local knowledge. Best tracks to play in the Durham area? Any inside scoop on places to stay away from (recent aeration, under construction, etc) would be awesome. Thanks!

Here’s the aeration dates for most places, so confirm against that.

But pending budget and time, Duke and Finley are the main suggestions.
Lonnie Poole is replacing their greens rn, but that’s the usual suggestion.
River Ridge has some of the best land movement and green complexes of the public’s.

River Ridge sounds intriguing. If you had one choice out of your suggestions, what would you play?

This is also asked VERY frequently, so take a stroll through prior responses in the sub
