Zigfield Troy Golf Range & Par 3
Zigfield Troy Golf Range & Par 3 is a Public, 9 hole golf course located in Woodridge, Illinois.
The par-3 golf course at the Zigfield Troy Golf facility opened for play in 1979. The course was designed by Henry Schaul and Zigfield Troy.
This challenging par 3 course is said to have some of the best greens in the area. Keep you shots out of the water hazards on holes #1 and #4, and out of numerous bunkers. The well-manicured greens are fast, and the wide fairways are open. However, there are some trees that can alter your shots. The terrain varies in undulation.
The facility also provides an eighteen hole miniature golf course and a driving range.
Par for the course is 27. From the back tees the course plays to 1064 yards. From the forward tees the course measures 894 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 8, a par-3 that plays to 140 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 9, a par-3 that plays to 83 yards from the back tees.
Blue tees: par-27, 1,067 yards
Red tees: par-27, 894 yards
It's a family affair __________
Three Generations and Now in Their Eighth Decade — the Troys are Dedicated to Serving Chicago Area Golfers Since 1934 - more than 75 years.
For more than 75 years - the Troy name has been synonymous with promoting the love of golf in Chicagoland. That's when Zigfield Troy, at age 19, opened his first golf range in Marquette Park.
Soon after, Zigfield developed the Sheldon Heights Golf Range at 115th and Halstead, which he operated for 38 years before moving his facility to Woodridge in 1976 and renaming it the Zigfield Troy Golf Range. Four years after relocating, he achieved a lifelong dream, co-designing and building the challenging Par-3 golf course that adjoins the range.
Anyone who has played golf in the Chicago area for the past several decades knows the name Zigfield Troy. The son of Lithuanian immigrants, Zigfield discovered golf by caddying to earn money to help his family survive the Great Depression of the 1930s.
Dennis Troy has played competitive golf for more than 49 years at the junior, amateur, collegiate and professional levels, and was coach of the Lewis University men's golf team for 16 years (1994-2009). He is a Class A PGA professional, and a member of the Golf Coaches Association of America and the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America.
Tim Troy, a Class A member of the Professional Golfers Association (PGA), has 29 years of teaching experience, and is a consistently high finisher in the season-long Illinois PGA Bernardoni competition points race. He is co-owner of Zigfield Troy Golf with brother Dennis.
Mike Troy, Dennis' son, may be the best player in the Troy family. In 2000 he qualified to play in the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach Golf Links (Tiger Woods' 15-shot runaway victory), and he was Illinois PGA Assistant Player of the Year in both 2000 and 2001. He is a PGA professional and has consistently placed high on the IPGA Bernardoni competition points list and has competed in the Radix Cup matches, representing the IPGA. Mike is in his 12th season as an instructor at Zigfield Troy Golf.
