The
course is masterfully laid out to take the
golfer on a tour of the natural surroundings,
as all the elements conspire to bring the
golfer to his winning hole. For Andy Dye,
his golf course is a canvas where the distinct
natural patterns flow with the game, creating
winning harmony - as a masterpiece of art.
The
Andy Dye Course at Eagle Ridge was originally
laid out to maximum advantage of the spectacular
natural canyon winding through the course
from "tip to tip" using traditional
and classic golf design with the fundamental
elements of risk and reward decision in shot
making and its execution. The entire 18 holes
are working together, offering unlimited,
balanced and complimentary shot selection,
creativity and mental discipline.
The
natural canyon is fully utilized to enhance
the design of each individual golf hole, as
shots accurately and boldly struck neat the
canyon edge. It offers significant advantages
in distance and angle of approach over the
shots played wide and safe of the canyon.
It is risk and reward golf with such a dramatic
and sometimes psychologically imposing natural
feature. Bold & Beautiful!
