About Briggs Woods Golf Course
Briggs Woods is Hamilton County's course, run by the county conservation board inside the 550-acre Briggs Woods Park two and a half miles south of Webster City. It opened in 1971 and sits above the Boone River Valley. It's a par 72 that plays just over 6,500 yards from the blue tees (71.7 rating, 119 slope), so length isn't the issue; keeping it in play is.
The two nines feel different. Tee Times magazine describes tall trees framing the front nine and ponds and creek beds on the back, with water arriving at the 9th and staying in play most of the way home. Warm up on the front, then pay attention.
The park makes it an easy golf trip: seven cabins, 82 campsites, a 70-acre lake with a sand beach, and a conference center next to the course that holds up to 400.
It's one of 15 courses Yoink watches in the Ames & Central Iowa area, and the closest alternative is Lakeside Municipal Golf Course, about 18 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
