Hunker down for the fifth hole, the longest at
524 yards, a par 5 into the face of the prevailing winds.

The Lakeridge Golf Course in Lakeview,
Oregon
played on a windy weekend in March 2000
 |
Look for the Lakeridge Golf & Country Club sign
when driving on Highway 140, about two miles west of Lakeview, Oregon.
The lean of the pin on the sign is a good indicator that you'll find
it to be a very windy course. |
 |
Here we look back towards the clubhouse, a dairy barn
style structure. First hole is a 500 yard, Par 5. |
 |
Weather is a factor here, just as on those good Scottish
courses. The pin at the second green shows the strength of the wind
with which you must contend. Pull your hat down around your ears and
drill those drives long and low. |
 |
Notice that the ground in all directions slopes towards
this water hazard. The marsh waits to entrap you on this 205 yard,
number three. |
 |
Here is a close up of the marsh, where I spent some
time. When you're not looking down, do look up and enjoy the views
of Goose Lake Valley and the surrounding Warner Mountains. |
 |
Large willows line the fourth hole, budding bright yellow
during the third weekend in March. |
 |
This stand of trees divides holes four and eight. You
really shouldn't be here at all. |
 |
This facility, a true pit toilet, is located at the
third and sixth hole tees. |
