Dunlop,

I did my own research and offered my findings to the club, but they didn't want it, said they were doing their own.  They eventually acknowledged that the course is a Stiles and Van Kleek, but still claim that Maxwell heavily consulted on the project.  All of the photos I've seen look a lot like the photos I've seen of other Stiles and Van Kleek's work.  There are also a couple of holes that look to be right off of one of Ross' plans.  Neither the greens nor the bunkers had Maxwell characteristics to them, no Maxwell rolls that I can see.

From everyone's comments I think we've changed our trip around to add, as of now, Southern Pines (replacing Reynolds Park) and Royal New Kent (as our Richmond destination).  

Now in Raleigh we're looking at the Hetritage Golf Club and the Duke University course (rather than Knight's Play and The Neuse).  But, do you think we should play Raleigh CC over these two?

Again, thanks for the the input and invites thus far.

I gotta believe if you get an invite to a private club that it has to be a better bet than Duke.  Take up Brian's offer and have a look at Raleigh CC.

Ciao

Raleigh CC over Duke without a doubt.  I'm not familiar with Heritage, but I doubt that is a winner either of these three.
