Played early 11/24 The course is in good to very good condition.
The greens are almost completely back from the early November aeration. A few holes visible in spots, smooth and medium to med-fast. The green complexes are challenging as they are interesting. Don’t hit many from long range (150+) but those hold OK. Need spin to control the shorter wedges, chips well, or fine touch and judge of break.

Fairways well kept tight lies, rough manageable, and most bunkers in better than average shape. They have done some maintenance on the course fringes (removing thorny thicket) and water hazards (cat tails) which is not only pleasing visually, but also gives a chance at finding ball or recovery shot possibilities.

I was in some unusual places driving the ball. (15th fairway on the fourth hole / near 12th tee box on par 5 15th) But somehow managed good recovery shots. Not the course management I’d recommend for a low score but interesting I was able to get back in play. Always have a fun round at the Ridge. The beverage cart was out on the 17th working backwards. Staff friendly well stocked pro shop.

Recommend.
