Conceived in the late 90’s and over ten years in the planning
and execution, the Pound Ridge Golf Club has already taken its place in the
pantheon of great metropolitan golf courses. The signature wit of Pete
Dye’s designs, his enduring challenge for golfers to bring their best game
and his sometimes maddening, more often inspiring, mathematical genius make
Pound Ridge one of his most memorable courses. In his own words, “If you
create in the mind of a golfer that he can remember some of the holes,
that’s extraordinary. And then, if you make it look, and it will look, very
demanding, if it’s still playable you’ve hit a home run.” Crafted by Dye,
his son Perry and long-time Dye construction manager/lead shaper Michael
Langkau, Pound Ridge Golf Club is a unique and thoroughly modern, full
bentgrass facility, hewn from 172 acres of magnificent cliffs, streams and
wooded hills in Westchester County. Dramatic rock formations have been left
onsite, creating one of the most visually stunning settings for golf in the
U.S. More than 14,000-linear-feet of rock wall surround trees, wetlands and
water hazards. Contoured fairways winding through hardwood forests and
fescue mounds lead to open meadows with picturesque green complexes. The
property features some of the highest points in the region, with a number
of tee boxes offering expansive vistas of the surrounding countryside.
