This course is part of the University of Iowa and features narrow fairways, undulating greens, and an island green on hole #13, a 199-yard, par 3. Dozens of new bunkers were added in 1996, which makes every level of golfer raise their game to score well. You must hit solid drives to avoid hitting fairway woods into greens. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 5th "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996. Dick Nugent redesigned this course in the 1980's. For tee time reservations, call (319) 335-9246.

Philipsburg Country Club
"Great little secret in Central PA"
This is a very hilly course that is not too long. The greens are small and will yield many 3 putts if you are in the wrong spot. There are a lot of risk reward holes to make birdies or double bogeys. With small fast greens and the hilly terain, anything around par is a great score the average player with a 14 handicap should expect to play around 83 golf. Well maintaned golf course, good food and service in the dinning room. The pro shop staff is very professional and accomidating. The best thing is the cheap cart(highly reccomend to take one) and green fees less then $40 a player. This is my second favorite thing to do on a Penn State football weekend, of course the Nittany Lions are the first thing.

"DCC review"
This is a wonderful course, beautifully maintained all around. The only possible knock is that if you haven't been playing for very long then it might be too difficult to you. None the less, its a must play for anyone who gets the chance.

"Winter Springs Wetlands"
This course is challenging because your lie had better be in the fairway or you'll most likely be looking for it in some form of casual water or very thick rough. The fairways were either overly-tight, negelected, outright wet, or all three. The greens are a muddy, slow-medium to slow speed with only a fair amount of undulation. The par 3 greens are almost all too large and too flat to be much fun. I've played WPGC twice and didn't really enjoy the experience because of all the standing water in the rough and on the fairways. I'm rating the course at 2 stars only because they have reliable and frequent refreshment cart service.

"Cinco Golf Course"
I played out at Cinco Ranch for high school golf about every week. They keep their course in great shape and is a great experience. I'm playing a high school tournament out there tommorow and the conditions are great. If you are looking for a course with fast greens and great cut fairways this is yours. If you do slack the front 9 you can definatley count on doing good on the back. This course has wonderful views with ponds and scares opponents with dreadful bunkers. Golfers beware this is a course you won't forget.
