What Tips or Local Knowledge Would You Provide To Help Them Score Better At Your Course? While tempting, many players may be best suited to keep the driver in the bag more often that it appears. Trouble lurks off the tee on several holes.
Any recent changes to the golf course? Or any upcoming changes? We continue to clear the course of unnecessary trees that have died or become too large for their intended purpose. Regular golfers will see a drastic difference on 3 holes in particular.

What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole? Hole #2 on the Valley. The view from the tee box is beautiful.
What Is Your Favorite Hole? Any Tips to Play It? My favorite hole is the par 5, Rolling #7. With a good drive you can catch the down hill and have a chance to go for the green in 2. Even with a poor drive you can leave yourself a short shot for your 3rd. However, the challenge doesn't stop there. Miss the green in the wrong spot or leave yourself above the hole and par could be challenging.
Must Have Dish or Drink after the round at the 19th Hole? Turkey Supreme Sandwich!
For the traveling golfer, do you have lodging onsite or partner with any area hotels? We do not. But there are several hotels within 10 minutes.
Who Holds Course Record and What Was Their Score? After missing the cut by just 1 stroke at the U.S. Open at Erin Hills in 2017, PGA Tour Professional Chan Kim stopped by for a round. He shot a course record "63" from the back tees on the Ponds/Woods course the first time he played it. Feeling like he left a few out there, he returned on Sunday but was unable to best his Saturday round.
