Is Pinehurst No. 3 the Hidden Gem of Pinehurst?

July 2, 2019

We really appreciate the kind words of Sugarloaf Social Club, who put Pinehurst No. 3 into better perspective than we ever could:

Some consider it a mini No. 2, others say it’s a life-sized Cradle, but whatever you dub Pinehurst No. 3 what it really is is the best of all worlds. At only a click over 5100 yards coming in at a par 68, and having recently received the same sandy aesthetic restoration as it’s more famous cousins in the area, this is the perfect expeditious track for a half set, hickories or a loop with the entire fam. Easily one of the most fun courses in Moore County, and a paradigm shifter in terms of how to achieve big architectural value in a diminutive package, No. 3 plays just as firm and fast as you would expect with tiny turtle back greens precariously awaiting you at the end of each hole. We are kicking ourselves that it took us nearly two decades to give her a look, consider our sensibilities scratched.
