Flex Start Friday -
(Weather Permitting)
Additionally on Friday prior to the event (19th), there will be a flex start event! A flex start is a great way to play an additional rated round at Windy Ridge, play for huge ace pots, or play some casual doubles. We'd love to see you at the course for practice as well.
We will be hosting singles and double. These events are in addition to The Windy Ridge Open and are optional. Anyone can play the flex start, even if they are not registered to play Saturday!

Course Rules & Layout
As we have done in years past, we will skip hole 9 and add a temporary hole between holes 15-16. We make this change for player safety. All tree lines on open holes will be painted OB. There will also be lines between each hole indicating OB. Official Course Rules and OB will be posted with the event Caddie book.
