Best Condition Since 1960

I have been playing at Ruth Park since I was in Junior High in 1960. Although we do not live in St. Louis any longer, we visit quite often, and when I am in town I always play Ruth Park at least once. I couldn't believe how great the condition was yesterday. The zoysia fairways and tees were excellent, and the greens were close to lightening speed. Highly recommended!!!!

Best I've Seen It In 30 Years

It's not just in great shape, but it's cut like a golf course. The fairways are beautiful zoysia, and the rough is now a real rough. Even lost a ball in the first cut! Much more challenging than I've seen it in my 30 years of playing here.

Great 9 holes

This is a great course not real tough, no sand , some out of bounds but the fairways are narrow for high handicap players however a lot guys hit from your fairway back to theirs.
