About Fort Dodge Country Club

Fort Dodge Country Club was founded in 1911, and it's semi-private: members, plus public tee times. The course runs through a residential subdivision on gently rolling ground, and the club makes a point of its greens, which are 100 percent bentgrass. It's a par 71 with four sets of tees, from about 4,900 to 6,600 yards, per the Visit Fort Dodge listing. The practice area is good enough to warm up properly, and there's a zero-depth pool for families.

The history is the fun part. Walter Hagen, Tommy Armour and Gene Sarazen all played here about 90 years ago, according to the Fort Dodge Community Foundation's local history site. The course also hosted the 1989 Iowa Amateur, won by Mike Dunphy of Perry at 208.

It's one of 15 courses Yoink watches in the Ames & Central Iowa area, and the closest alternative is Lakeside Municipal Golf Course, about 2 miles away — handy when your first choice is booked solid.
