The Dogwoods Golf Course at Hugh White State Park

The Dogwoods was designed by Gary
Roger Baird and was named the 5th
"best new affordable course" in the country by Golf Digest when it opened.  Thirty-foot tall dogwoods are abundant throughout the property, which overlooks Grenada Lake.  The course can play
as long as 7,300 yards from the back tees; the greens are huge, some as large as 10,000 square feet; and the fairways have landing areas up to 80 yards wide.  The signature hole here is undoubtedly the par-5, 9th hole.  Perched high above the fairway and overlooking the lake, the tee shot is a real beauty.  Its a dogleg left with the green protected by bunkers in the front and trees to the left.
