Tips for Playing Crestmont Country Club
When playing Crestmont, pay close attention to the green complexes. Donald Ross was famous for his challenging greens, and Crestmont is no exception. Many greens feature subtle undulations and false fronts that can make approach shots tricky. A good caddie or a detailed yardage book can be invaluable for navigating these nuances and understanding the best angles of approach. Given the hilly terrain, walking the course can be a significant workout, especially on warmer days. Consider a golf cart if you prefer to conserve energy, or ensure you are well-hydrated and prepared for the physical demands of a walking round. Also, be mindful of the pace of play, especially during peak times, to ensure an enjoyable experience for everyone on the course.
