Predator Ridge Resort (Predator course): Two superb and contrasting golf courses await at the impressive Predator Ridge resort. The original links-style Predator layout, one of Les Furber's very best designs, was joined in 2010 by the equally impressive and more woodland-style Ridge course.
Widely recognised as a course that ranks alongside the country's best, the Predator is an immensely natural, scenic and challenging layout. The Scottish-inspired Predator is as good an inland links course as you'll find. Its open undulating terrain is home to plenty of gentle elevation changes, walkable if you choose. Good-width, classically-designed holes weave through plenty of swaying fescue grasses, with large stylish bunkering and occasional water hazards also menacingly in play.
The back-nine loop includes some of the best of the wonderfully crafted holes, laid out in a scenic rolling environment. Beyond the course, grass-covered hills exude a sublimely natural character, part wilderness, part ranch-like. The grassy hills stretch away to wooded mountains in the distance.
With two great courses to play at Predator Ridge, many ask which is the better - the links-style Predator course or the rocky, woodland-style Ridge? A bit like asking if red wine is superior to white!
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Golf season is April thru mid-Oct.
Walking permitted at all times. Golf carts are fitted with GPS.

Walker Cup: the 50th playing of this prestigious men’s amateur event sees the GB&I go head-to-head against the defending USA team at Cypress Point Club, California (Sept 6-7).
After that, all eyes turn to Bethpage State Park on Long Island, NY, where the American and defending European professional teams engage in the 45th Ryder Cup (Sept 27-29).
Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.
Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
