A straightforward par 4 that plays relatively short from most tees, offering a friendly opening hole. The fairway is wide off the tee but narrows as it approaches the green, where bunkers protect the right side and demand accuracy on the approach shot.

A solid par 4 with a fairway that requires a controlled tee shot to avoid trouble. The green is moderately sized and well-bunkered, making this a good test of iron play for the second shot.

A short par 3 that plays downhill to a receptive green, though the modest length should not be underestimated. Bunkers surround the green, particularly on the front and sides, making precision more important than distance.

A genuine par 5 opportunity with a wide fairway that allows aggressive play off the tee. The hole opens up for birdie possibilities with a well-executed two-shot approach, though hazards pinch the landing areas at key yardages.

Ridgewood's signature challenge, this demanding par 4 plays uphill and longer than the scorecard suggests. Water or out-of-bounds left creates a narrow corridor to the green, and the elevated putting surface is protected by strategic bunkering that rewards only precise shots.

A deceptive short par 3 with minimal yardage that can play significantly longer depending on pin position and wind. The small green is surrounded by sand, leaving little room for error on what appears to be the easiest par 3 on the course.

A strategic par 4 with character and length that demands two well-executed shots. Bunkering and rough define the fairway corridor, while the green sits elevated and well-protected, making this a solid mid-course test.

The course's signature hole and a genuine three-shot par 5 that plays longer than the yardage indicates. Water and out-of-bounds left force a conservative line, while strategic bunkering at mid-range and near the green demand careful position play throughout.

A long par 4 that finishes the front nine with authority, playing uphill and requiring power and precision. Hazards left and bunkering right narrow the approach, making this one of the course's most demanding par 4s.

A moderate par 4 that opens the back nine with a relatively straightforward assignment. The fairway is reasonably wide off the tee, and the green complex, while defended, offers a fair target for a well-struck approach shot.

A long and imposing par 5 that is the second-hardest hole on the course, requiring three strong shots to reach the green. Water or out-of-bounds left defines the entire hole, forcing all golfers to respect the right side while managing distance and position.

An exceptionally difficult par 4 that plays as one of the course's most formidable holes, with significant length and trouble throughout. Bunkering is aggressive, the fairway narrows, and the green is severely protected, making this a true scoring challenge.

A manageable par 5 that offers genuine birdie opportunity with smart play and solid execution. The fairway is open off the tee, allowing aggressive lines, though hazards require respect on the approach to a well-defined green complex.

A longer par 3 that demands a substantial carry over trouble to a green that sits exposed on the landscape. The putting surface is relatively open but surrounded by bunkers and rough, making this back-nine par 3 more challenging than it appears.

A short par 4 that plays considerably easier than its handicap rating suggests, offering potential scoring opportunity. The fairway is generous and the green is receptive, making this one of the course's most gettable holes.

A solid par 4 with a fair fairway that requires steady, disciplined play without demanding heroics. Bunkers and rough define the sides, while the green itself is moderately defended, making this a straightforward mid-course test.

The shortest par 3 on the course but deceptively dangerous, with tight surroundings that punish wayward shots. The diminutive green provides minimal margin for error, and strategic bunkering makes this closing par 3 a genuine examination of precision.

A solid finishing par 4 that demands two accurate shots to a well-bunkered green, providing a fitting conclusion to the round. The fairway narrows in the landing area, and the closing green complex requires a composed approach to finish strong.
