Keith Foster is one of the most acclaimed classic course restorers in the world, but his personal style often tends to more modern thinking. As with many of his originals, Persimmon Woods blends a bit of both schools.
No. 7 is theoretically drivable for the biggest hitters but a creek attaching irrigation ponds will make most think otherwise. Most players will lay up and a centreline bunker will make them debate whether to play away from the green, or to thread the needle between the bunker and a pond. Historic, Golden Age touches come into play at No. 13, another short par four that mimics the famous “Peconic” hole from National Golf Links of America. A diagonal line of bunkers makes the player debate whether to go wide or go over to best access the angled green. Crooked Creek will live up to its name, winding throughout the property.
The club is quick to promote its walkability, citing stats that 42% of rounds at Persimmon Woods are walked ones.
