Kilmarlic is a course that demands positional play and doesn’t kill the average golfer with too much length. This course is a perfect example of a place that has enjoyable and challenging golf without stretching the tips to over 7,000 yards.
In fact, Kilmarlic, which has hosted the 2004 and 2009 North Carolina Open, only plays 6,560 yards. It falls under the philosophy of some great professionals, including Jack Nicklaus, who say golf courses don’t have to be long to be good.
