Nice track
I really like this course, however very disappointed the the bunker areas are not taken care of at all. Sand was hard packed, grass growing in the bunkers and no rakes.
Enjoyable Round, Nice Greens, Good Layout for 18
Enjoyed playing a Saturday afternoon 18 at Ridder. The course layout was forgiving for someone who likes to hit it longer but not always middle fairway. It was a good mix of different par 4s with some challenging Par 5s and Par 3s. Doglegs and well placed water/bunkers and larger challenging and fast greens made it a fun but not easy round.
Hope to make this part of my south shore rotation of public courses. Also it’s nice as they have the learning center/ covered range next door to hit some balls in the shade before a round.
Rough condition
This is a nice gentle layout that is in need of much TLC. Fairways had tons of burned out spots, green were fine except that they were long and slow, tee boxes were badly covered with big divots and the bunkers were full of weeds and had no raked.
This course needs a lot of rain and an active grounds keeper.
Good track
Great wide open course, only issue was no rakes in the traps and traps need some TLC. To many weeds in the traps and they need some definition.
Ridder farms
Reliably good, friendly staff. Open front nine and a bit more narrow in the back. Greens are in great condition. Pace of play has not been an issue even when inexperienced players are there.
The course itself for me is everything I’d want in a golf course. The staff is friendly and helpful. My only complaint is that I want to buy some ridder farm swag from the clubhouse but I didn’t see any. I did get a hat, but I would love some “ridder farms” poker chips ball markers or divot fixers.
Ridder farms review
Nice course, driving range. Forgiving front nine, challenging back nine. The pace of play was a bit slow, but that can change daily.
I was a little hesitant to recommend the course to others because I thought it was a little pricey for the condition.
Slow play
Showed up 10min early to my tee time and was told I was late and that my group had already teed off. Pace of play was very slow. I had to wait a few minutes for every tee shot and and every approach shot. My guess is that the tee times are too close together. I play here often and it’s a great course but this was a tough day. I had to leave after 9 holes because of the pace of play.
Father and son day
I started playing Ridder farm back around 1964. $1.75 for nine, ice cream was a quarter. My son played golf with his high school team where he met his wife. He hasn’t played there since the early 2000s. Comfortable course to play, some tough holes. This course has always been consistent, that’s why locals come back. Keep up the good work and golfers go have fun.
