"One of the things that impressed me immediately when I joined was just how many great golfers there are here. There are more single-digit handicappers at HCC than in any club in the Mid-Atlantic."

"I ran to get a spot near the 18th green to see Arnie putt out. I looked around the gallery and there were a lot of people with tears in their eyes. I remember saying to my buddy, Who knows? This may be the last tournament Arnie ever wins and it happened here at Hermitage.”

"One minute my partner and I were high-fiving each other because we’d won our flight. The next thing you know, we’re teeing off in front of an entire army of golf carts filled with people watching the Shootout. It really got the adrenaline pumping."

"Standing on #8 tee box, we saw something in the distance at the edge of the lake. When we walked down the fairway, we saw that it was a huge bald eagle. It took off and flew right over our heads. We all looked at each other like 'Did we just see that?!' It was incredible."

"My dad came into town right after my family joined. We played the Manakin on Saturday and the Sabot on Sunday. He was blown away that the same club could have two courses with two completely different layouts and golf experiences."

"One of my favorite things to see is when I finish a round of golf and I’m walking to my car and I look out at the range and I see a dad with his kids swatting golf balls. Come out here any Saturday or Sunday afternoon and you’ll see it."

"Stand on the putting green before your tee time. Look down at the first tee and you’ll hear the group in front of you giving each other a hard time, negotiating strokes and figuring the bet. Lots of laughs. That’s the way this place is."
