People have aced a par 4 at Whispering Woods. On No. 5, Justin Sommers did it in 2021 with a 274-yard drive, and Dan Bowers holed his driver from the white tees in 2026.
The course's own advice is calmer. The landing area is partly blind, and a drive that runs long, right or left is probably gone. So the smart play is often a hybrid, then a partial wedge.
John Exley designed it, shaping the holes with superintendent Rob Goring, and it opened in 2007. Rich Rocky has been here since the start and bought the club in 2015. It runs over rolling northwestern Pennsylvania ground, through tall trees and past streams and waterfalls, with 50 bunkers to dodge.
The range is two-ended, with covered stalls for bad weather, and fittings happen indoors on Trackman.
