Pleasant Surroundings
Eighteen holes open to the public for daily play. Two creeks feed into lakes on each nine. Four holes are affected by water on each nine. There are many mature trees dating back to before construction, when the landscape was farmland bordering Oshkosh. Hundreds of trees have been added in the almost forty years since the course was constructed.
The Long & Short of it...
Longer Holes
The length and difficulty of many holes on each nine were modified as part of a continuing course improvement program. Mainly championship tee-offs are affected, but regular tees will be longer also, depending on placement.
Gold Tee
The GOLD tees for Senior golfers have been available since 2005, and are appreciated. The new tees are forward of the current white tee, and longer then the red tee.
Green, Yellow, Orange
New tees appropriate for every skill level have been added and improved. Westhaven is only the second course in the state to have permanent Green & Yellow tees placed for US Kids approved tournaments. Youth as young as six may now play from the Green tees, after completing a youth golf program. Beginning golfers of all ages and abilities may use the Yellow or Orange tees. Orange tees are similiar in design and quality to current Red/Forward tees. Orange tees shorten the distance to the hole, but still allow for a challenge to achieve par. Green and Yellow tees are permanently marked, improved areas to the left or right of the fairway. New easy to spot fairway markers, indicate distance to the green.
Water, water every where...
But only where you want it.
Irrigation Improvements
The new computerized irrigation system is complete. New valves, larger pumps, and computerized pop-up heads are providing more water when needed then ever before. Areas that had been lacking in water are now accessed with new pipe spurs and pop-up heads. A new water holding pond on the back nine between Twelve and Thirteen is complete.
The city water retention pond south of the club house does not affect the golf course in any way. The project is scheduled for 2011, in the empty 4 acre lot south of the club house.
Better Drainage
Drainage improvements are a continuation of a multi-year year plan to improve drainage and irrigation throughout the course. Almost three miles of new or repaired drainage lines have been added.
