| I am a young golfer at Leewood Golf Course, and I always tell my friends to come with me to play golf at Leewood. I always play with my friends (Joey, and Alex).During the summer, we have a junior interclub team. This is a great program, and many young juniors get a lot out of it. The 3rd hole and Leewood is a beautiful dog leg left, and on a nice sunny day you can see New York City from the tee box, and it looks like a picture every time. I have played golf my whole life, and I would tell everybody to come play at Leewood Golf Club. |

short but challeging, Aug 08, 2008

| I have played at Leewood Golf Course several times and I have enjoyed it very much. Although it is a fairly short course it requires straight drives, not long but straight. I wouldn't say the greens are very difficult, but they aren't easy. There are two beautiful par 3's where there are lakes just before the green and you have to hit the ball over the lake to hit the green. There is also one par 4 (hole 14) that is about 280 to 300 yards from the tee box to the lake and most people lay the ball up with eaither a driver or a 3 wood and then hit a wedge onto the green or some more daring people will go with a driver to go for the green. It has happened before but most people just lay it up. One more interesting fact is that Babe Ruth was once a member at Leewood. |

Great Course, Jun 18, 2008

| I have played golf at leewood for quite some time now and I would say it is an excellent course. The head pro, Dean Johnson, is a great teacher and is a great guy to have around. He knows what he is doing . The other three pros, Mike, Will, and Steve are also excellent. I really love the course set up and you have to hit the ball straight which helped me get better in a way because I always hit the ball a ton but a lot off times not straight. Now, I hit it far and straight. I like that combo! It is also just a beautiful course. I would 100 percent reccomend leewood to anyone that would want to join a golf club. |
