Meadows Public Golf Course

Meadows Public Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Moorhead, Minnesota.

Meadows Public Golf Course opened in 1994. The course was designed by Joel Goldstrand.

The Meadows was built to replicate the traditional Scottish links course experience.

By design, the Meadows has no trees that come into play on the course. The layout includes three six hole "loops" with the greens of the 6th, 12th and 18th holes all returning to the clubhouse. Playing conditions are unmatched in the region with bent grass landing areas in each fairway. Bent grass, traditionally reserved for the greens, enables the maintenance staff to mow the landing areas shorter which allows the ball to sit up cleaner than normal rye grasses.

The course has four sets of tees, yardage ranges from 5,150 at the forward tees to 6,862 at the championship tees.

The character and difficulty of The Meadows is directly related to the wind. On three different days , a player could see three different versions of the Meadows, north wind, south wind and calm. From time to time an east wind will make a appearance and then it's anyone's guess. In the spring and fall, the winds tend to blow from the north making the course a little easier. In the summer, the wind tends to blow from the south making the course play a little tougher. On the rare calm day, a player must take full advantage and post that low round.
