It is often whispered among privileged New York state golfers that members of the Winged Foot Golfing Club have been faced with a quandary and a dilemma that many in the golf and golfing sports fields would only dearly love to encounter and even endure. That quandary of quandaries being to decide and come to a final decisive decision as to which of their two courses are better � the East or the Western.
To have two excellent as well as exceptional golf courses at your disposal as a golfer and sports person is great and fantastic , however those with the great grace to have full playing privileges and rights at Winged Foot are blessed with two wonderful and well cared for courses.
Winged Foot took its name from the emblem of the New York Athletic Club with which it was closely attached and involved with for a lengthy time span. The two courses were both designed by the same famed golf course architect A.W. Tillinghast, were opened in 1923 and no doubt were quickly regarded as among the best going. After only 6 years after opening, the West Course played host to the U.S. Open, which was won by the famed pro golfing legend Bobby Jones amazingly for the 3rd time. Jones defeated Al Espinosa in a 36 hole playoff by a more than astounding 23 shots.
In 1974 after the West Course was toughened up, Hale Irwin won the U.S. Open championship with a score of 7 over par. If that is not testament to the legendary toughness of the West course�s legendary toughness being well earned, then nothing is.
Winged Foot West course is blessed with some of the best par- four holes in golf. The scorecard allows ten par 4�s with distances exceeding 400 yards, seven of which are more than 440 yards. Some of the holes are downright unreachable in two for the average player and those that are within range will most likely need a solid wood shot to get home.
The 17�th hole is a wonderful example of Winged Foot�s par fours. The whole bends from left to right and at the corner are four huge bunkers. Keeping your golf ball away from them is more than a tough and daunting task. The approach into the green is most likely to be played with a long iron or wood and two more huge bunkers on either side of the putting surface are ready to grab any sorry ball unlucky enough to stray off line.
The golf course bunkers throughout this famed golfing course are notably more than deep, challenging if more than known throughout golf lore as difficult. This is certainly one of Tillinghast�s trademarks and legacies and it unlikely that anyone getting caught in these massive bunkers will soon or ever forget it and them. It has been more than noted by members of the club as well as their occasional guests that getting in and out of these sand golfing bunkers always seems to take more than one swing.
Winged Foot Golf Course is not only a solid member�s course , it has as well become a renowned demanding tournament test as well , with the likes of Jones, Irwin, Billy Casper and Fuzzy Zoeller winning opening titles here.
