Richland Country Club
With over 630 golf courses scattered across its vast landscape, the state of Illinois has become one of the Midwest’s best golfing destinations. A diverse locale featuring some of the best and most fertile land in the country, the Prairie State offers the perfect landscape for golf architects and course designers to allow their creativity to come to life. From areas of coastline to the rolling hills of the southern cities, Illinois golf is synonymous with pleasurable golf experiences, and today's feature is no exception: $14 for 18 Holes with Cart and Range Balls at Richland Country Club in Olney ($39 Value. Good Any Day, Any Time until July 1, 2014.)
Opened over 70 years ago, the course at Richland County Club is a classical golfing experience you don't want to miss. The historic layout perfectly mixes the elegant design features of the late 1920s with all of the modern convenience you’ve come to expect. Each of the 18 holes throughout this beautiful layout offer a unique test of golf – perfectly mixing both playability and challenge. Expertly manicured fairways stretch from tee to green, and provide golfers with limited landing areas enforced by mature trees throughout. The back nine is especially challenging, with many players opting to use long irons off of the tee to keep their drives out of trouble.
Three sets of tees augment the length of this 6,100-yard course to match the playing ability of any golfer, making Richland Country Club the ideal course for the seasoned pro or enthusiastic beginner. Rated 69.5 and measuring a slope of 128, course management and proper shot selection is a must for those looking to shoot low scores.
Offering picturesque views of the Illinois countryside throughout the course, Richland is as aesthetically pleasing as it is enjoyable to play. Come enjoy a fantastic layout, incredible amenities (including a full-service driving range), and a day of fun with today’s feature at Richland Country Club.
