About Pound Ridge Golf Club

Pound Ridge Golf Club, opened in 2008, stands as the only Pete Dye-designed course in New York State. Carved from 172 acres of pristine, wooded property in Westchester County, the course is a testament to Dye's legendary design philosophy, blending natural rugged beauty with strategic challenge. The layout features dramatic rock outcroppings, meandering streams, and elevation changes that create a truly unique and memorable golfing experience. Dye himself described it as a course that "fits the land" and offers a "pure golf experience."

The course is renowned for its striking visuals and demanding play. With no two holes alike, golfers encounter a diverse array of challenges, from tight, tree-lined fairways to expansive, undulating greens guarded by strategically placed bunkers. The natural landscape is expertly integrated into the design, with rock formations often framing holes or serving as intimidating hazards. Pound Ridge offers a premium public golf experience, providing championship-level conditions and service typically found at exclusive private clubs.

Playing Pound Ridge is an adventure, requiring thoughtful shot-making and precise execution. The course demands respect for its design and rewards those who can navigate its intricacies. It's a course that challenges every club in the bag and leaves a lasting impression, solidifying its reputation as one of the Northeast's premier public golf destinations.
