Lead Country Club

Detailed description of Lead Country Club

Lead Country Club, is a Semi-Private, 9 hole golf course located in Lead, South Dakota,

The course dates to 1922.

The course sits at an elevation of almost 6,200 feet. That's a bit higher than a mile. You should anticipate your ball to fly a bit longer than normal, due to the altitude.

The course winds through tree lined meadows. The greens are small but receptive and the natural slope makes for some interesting reads. Don't be long, stay below the hole, play a little more break than you read and you will do just fine.

Watch out for # 5, a 433-yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole at La Purisima Golf Course is # 13, a 169 yard par-3.
