PINEHURST GOLF CLUB 1938 AMERICAN GOLF RESORT NORTH CAROLINA 41324
This circa 1938 black-and-white Pictoreel sports film takes its viewer to Pinehurst, North Carolina — the cradle of American golf. The film shows several luxurious homes and street scenes as the narrator explains how golf is the life blood of the city, so much so that many businesses close during the course of the day so that owners may take time to head to the links. Even “gentlemen of the cloth … mingle with their flocks” as at mark 01:50 two clergymen walk to the greens toting their clubs. Mark 02:00 takes the viewer to nearby Taylortown, a rural community that’s almost exclusively inhabited by caddies and their families. The famed Pinehurst Country Club is shown at mark 02:45 as the narrator explains how the resort is home to the North and South Open (one of the most prestigious golf tournaments in the United States from 1902 to 1951). Beginning at mark 03:08 the film shows several professional and amateur golfers taking swings at the 1938 North and South Open including Johnny Revolta, George Dunlap, Ed Dudley, and Jimmy Thompson, before following them to the greens. Byron Nelson slams one down the fairway at mark 04:03, as does Thompson and other golfers. Legendary amateur golfer Bobby Jones is shown photographing the event at mark 05:08 as Horton Smith heads to the 18th hole at mark 05:20 and Vic Ghezzi is shown sinking the final putt to take the title. Several professional “feminine champions” at Pinehurst are also shown starting at mark 05:50 including Estelle Lawson Page, Dorothy Kirby, Virginia Hemphill, and Helen Guilfoyle, before showing some golf tips from the pros, including a few illustrated by Horton Smith. (Smith had won the 1937 North and South Open, and was the winner of the first and third Masters Tournaments).
Pinehurst Resort is a historic golf resort in the United States, located in Pinehurst, North Carolina. It has hosted a number of prestigious golf tournaments. Pinehurst was founded by Boston soda fountain magnate James Walker Tufts. He purchased 5,500 acres for approximately $1.25 per acre in 1895, and opened the Holly Inn New Year's Eve of that year. The first golf course was laid out in 1897/98, and the first championship held at Pinehurst was the United North and South Amateur Championship of 1901. Pinehurst's best known course, Pinehurst No. 2, was completed in 1907 to designs by Donald Ross, who became associated with Pinehurst for nearly half a century. After Pinehurst No. 2 was opened in 1907, Donald Ross said that the course was, The fairest test of championship golf I have ever designed.
From 1902 to 1951, Pinehurst was the home of the North and South Open, which was one of the most prestigious golf tournaments in the United States at that time. Pinehurst is still home to the annual North and South Amateur Golf Championships, a series of tournaments which includes a Men's Championship inaugurated in 1901 and the Women's Championship that began two years later. The first PGA Tour major staged at Pinehurst was the PGA Championship in 1936, won by Denny Shute. In 1951, the resort hosted the Ryder Cup, and in 1991 and 1992 it was the venue for The Tour Championship.

Pinehurst No. 2 Flyover Series: Hole 1
This short par 4 will require something less than a driver off the tee for most players, who will likely try to play just short of the point where the fairway narrows dramatically, leaving 135-150 yards to a traditional Pinehurst No. 2 domed green. Although this is a lofted approach shot, it demands precision, with a miss in any direction likely to roll away from the hole.

Pinehurst No. 2 Flyover Series: Hole 2
This slight dogleg-right par 4 played the most difficult in relation to par in the 2005 U.S. Open. The restoration has doubled the width of the drive zone, but the approach shot is to a very severe green, given the length of the hole. Players will want to play down the left side of the fairway when the hole is located on the right side of the green, which features a pronounced hump in the front that will likely repel approach shots.
