Oak Ridge is a very hilly layout. It presents quite a challenge to the average golfer. It is not overly long, but it forces you to use every club in the bag. Beautiful views and layout. Worth trying.

Shot maker's course, greens somewhat difficult to read - grain in Bermuda is prominant. Not too long, but if you don't hit it where you should - you pay the price. Best condition of any course I've played this year.
