Pinehurst??

OK, so I was talking to my boss yesterday and he wants me across in April to the US. We are going to visit customers in Orlando, New Orleans, and North Carolina, which means taking in a w/e. He has a condo in NC and threw in a line "perhaps we could look at getting a game at Pinehurst, I've been meaning to play one of those course for a while. You play a bit, right?".

So poker faced I replied "yeah, that could be cool" (Inside I'm screaming like a child WHOOOOOHOOO!!).

It's my 40th in May so I'm thinking of treating myself to something like this anyway, so this could be it.

Some questions, anyone played there, what is the best value of all the 'Hirsts? What is the Must Play (chance in a lifetime!!)?
Should I bring my clubs all the way across US to get one game, albeit a BIG game? He says he can lend me a set.
Should I tell Mrs. IG about the w/e? She's always pissed when I have to travel because of work. Throwing in "oh, year I'll be away the w/e too but it's OK cuz I'm getting a game at Pinehurst!" might lose me my manhood!
