Opened in 2008, Pound Ridge Golf Club is the only course in New York
designed by the legendary Pete Dye. Located in Westchester County, it is
less than an hour north of New York City and less than 15 minutes from
Stamford and Greenwich, Connecticut. One of the only high-end, public
courses in the area, Pound Ridge Golf Club is a full bentgrass facility.
Crafted by Dye, his son Perry and long-time Dye construction manager/lead
shaper Michael Langkau, Pound Ridge Golf Club is hewn from 172 acres of
magnificent cliffs, streams and wooded hills. Dramatic rock formations and
boulders were left onsite, creating one of the most visually stunning
settings for golf in the U.S. More than 14,000-linear-feet of rock wall
surrounds trees, wetlands and water hazards. These frame contoured fairways
which wind through hardwood forests and fescue mounds leading to open
meadows with picturesque green complexes.
Pound Ridge Golf Club plays to a par-72 and houses five sets of tees and
measures 7,171 yards. It boasts a practice range, short game area and
putting green. The property features some of the highest points in
Westchester County, with a number of tee boxes offering expansive vistas of
the surrounding country. Notable holes include the par-5, 13th - home to
"Pete's Rock," a giant boulder that rests in the middle of the fairway -
and the par-3 15th - dubbed "Headstone" - which is flanked on the right by
a large rock outcropping that protrudes into the elongated,
9,000-square-foot putting surface.
