I have been a member for several years and enjoy playing Talega at least 3 times per week. The layout is challenging but fair. The greens are in great shape and run true. Some of the fairways need more/better grass and some areas of the rough have clumpy grass. The greenside bunkers need work -- they are generally too wet and not fluffy, so it is difficult to get enough sand under the ball to "throw" onto the green effectively. A good value, particularly if you are a member that plays often or paying the member's guest rate.
Would travel: 20-30 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
