This course was built to USGA specifications and is aimed at providing the best quality course for the above-average golfer. In fact, there’s a false rumor out there that members are required to have a 15 or better handicap. The course pros said that’s not true, but they do highly encourage the members to work toward improvement.
It’s an early Donald Ross design and the holes are close together. This is a challenging and fun, consistent course. The fairways, greens and rough are all consistent. The design is tough, with fast greens, tight fairways and deep rough.
