I’m a 13 handicap from the white tees.10 from the senior twos. This is an excellent and challenging course. It is a very fair course. Best to keep your drives in the fairway even if you have to sacrifice some distance. Hole 4 is a par 5. Don’t get greedy on this hole, club down and take your time. Too easy to hit your ball in the woods right and left. Hole #15 can be tricky. Hit as close to the tree on the right as you can. I hit my drivers 220-240. I club down and hit a safe three wood. If you hit left you are going down a ravine into the woods. A slicers nightmare. The next hole #16 is a challenge. You have to hit your drive almost to the sand trap at the end of the fairway in order to have any chance of hitting the green on your second shot. Their is a beautiful double Sycamore tree guarding the green if your drive is short. As much as I like those Sycamores I’m praying lighting hits this one and opens up the approach to the green.

Have played Winding Ridge for a number of years. It is a fairly long course with water on all but two holes. Yesterday was a windy day so it made the course even more difficult. I find after playing WR I play other curse much better as I find them easier to play. The ground keeping staff has done an exceptional job in keeping the course. The fairways are green and well kept. The greens are perfect. They hold your shot, so go for the pin. Dave, the pro, is always personable as well as the staff.

The course can be challenging. There is water on all but two of the holes. It is also long. I find that after playing Winding Ridge that I play other courses much better. Playing this course has really improved my game. The staff is always friendly. The course is well maintained. The fairways and greens are always nice. Would highly recommend playing Winding Ridge, you will enjoy it.

Have played this course a few times. It is a good course for someone who is just learning and ready to get out on and 18 hole course for the first time. My daughter has been playing for four years now and the course is a challenge for her, but yet is easy enough that it builds her confidence. It took us about three and a half hours to complete and 18 hole round with cart, including a 20 minute rain delay. With all of the rain we have had the course was green and lush. The grounds crew does an excellent job in maintaining the course.
