Ridgewood Country Club

Ridgewood CC, which opened in 1947 and was redesigned by Ralph Plummer in 1962, once hosted the Southwest Conference tournament.

A scenic course that overlooks Lake Waco, it opens with a difficult par-4 that plays off of the side of a large hill offering a panoramic view of the water.

Two holes stand out on the front: the 406-yard No. 6, which rolls to the lake and features an approach into a deep, massive green; and the 416-yard dogleg right No. 8 with its sloping fairway.

No. 18 is a solid finisher at 558 yards, playing downhill to a tiny green.

Getting there : From Lakeshore Dr., take Valley Mills south. When you come to Cobbs St., turn right. Once you reach Fish Pond Rd., turn right again and drive approximately 4 miles to the course.
