WAMPATUCK COUNTRY CLUB

The tree-lined fairways through mature New England hardwoods demand precision over power, with elevation changes that make club selection as crucial as course management on this classic northeastern layout. Donald Ross's strategic bunkering still punishes wayward approaches nearly a century later, while the sloped greens reward those who study the subtle breaks carved into the rolling Massachusetts terrain. When autumn arrives and the maples explode in color, this becomes one of the region's most photogenic tests of traditional golf architecture.
