About
Windy Knoll Golf Club is known among locals as being one of Springfield's best public golf courses. The course was built in 2001, though you would not be able to tell from its traditional links design. It manages to be a classic links golf course while still being a challenge. The site was originally a horse farm and the design incorporates some of the features from the terrain's former use. Water hazards come into play frequently throughout the golf course and there are trees and rough lining the fairways. Golfers will find many risk-reward opportunities on the course, one good example being the par-4 eighth. This hole plays into the prevailing wind and if you miss your drive, you may find yourself in one of the eight bunkers surrounding the undulating green.

Surprisingly in good shape
It was cold, wet, and raining when I got to the course. I waited an hour for the rain to stop. When I started playing, everything was wet but to my amazement , the course was not soggy. The sun come out on the 4th hole and I started shedding layers. By the time I started the back 9, the course was dry and played really well. Unlike some courses I’ve played, the wet weather does your ability to play good golf at Windy Knoll. I always recommend this course for a good round of golf. birthday.

Appropriately Named
Hadn't played Windy Knoll in 3 years. I like the course with its realistic horse statues and links style holes. The day was very windy which offered some challenges. The greens weren't too slow or too fast, but they can be deceptively tricky. The course was also a little wet with the generous amount of recent rainfall. I like the course and hope to return soon.

A Cheap Rate
The round was only $20, but once we started playing we found out they had just aireated the course. The rough was terrible. There were plugs of dirt 3 inches long and 1 inch thick. The greens were not true at all. Each putt would get 2-3 feet from the hole and veer off to a side. Needless to say, scoring was very bad! It would have been nice to know the course conditions before we paid for the rounds!

Tee boxes could use a diagram of hole design.
If you didn't get a book you would not know the layout.
