The woodford club was a great experience for our golf group. We scheduled a whole day including food and some pre-planned activities nearby (bourbon tasting after lunch, dinner nearby). The scenery was beautiful, the course was tough but a lot of fun. The food was maybe the best clubhouse food I’ve ever had, they’ve got serious food people there (shout out to T-Bone). Pam is great to work with if you’re trying to schedule a group event and everyone we interacted with was great!

These clowns booked us a tee time for 7:30 AM, then made us wait until the frost is completely off the greens—which will take 3 hours

Simply incredible. Our first time here for a Mother's Day dinner. I wanted the loaded tater tot appetizer and the wife wanted the spinach artichoke dip and both were amazing, especially the tater tots. We tried a couple cocktails and again, delicious. Our entrees were for her the smoked pork belly mac and cheese with salad. I was lucky to get a single taste before it was gone and it was great, I wish I had ordered it. I had the shrimp dinner, I chose fried with parmesan coated Yukon gold potatoes and instead if veggie medley I opted for the beer battered onion rings. So filling, the shrimp, although only six, we're gigantic. Each one easily the six of 2-3 regular shrimp you'd find somewhere else. Even though we were stuffed we had to try the s'mores dip dessert because we've never seen it anywhere else and it was the perfect end to a perfect dinner. It's actually the only thing I got a picture of. The rest was gone at soon as it hit the table.

When I first met course owner Randy Clay in 2020, his vision was to make The Woodford Club a totally private club. However, with 26 courses within a 20-mile radius of Versailles, KY, it would not be an easy task. These days The Woodford Club is a semi-private facility with a lot to offer those who seek membership. Randy Clay is determined to take his golf product to the next level and earlier this year hired Bob Baldassari, a longtime member of the PGA and founder of Reimagine Golf, whose expertise in player development will help bring about the next generation of young golfers and potential members to The Woodford Club. This tight, parkland-style course features narrow, tree-lined fairways carpeted in plush Zoysia grass leading to lush Bentgrass greens that roll true and at just the right speeds. With deceptive angles and constant, sometimes subtle, elevation changes which lead to a number of blind tee shots, both off the tee and in the fairway. Many of the greens are guarded by bunkers although sometimes the elevation changes around the green complexes are simply enough. The holes I seem to remember the most from my last visit to The Woodford Club are the par 3s, they play long and challenging. There is one on the front side and three on the back. The first, Number 2, is 184 yards from the Blue Tees and plays slightly uphill with trees that dot the landscape from tee to green. Pay particular attention to the two trees on the right side near the green. A tee shot slightly offline can easily find one of them or the bunker. Either one presents a tricky up-and-down. Number 11 is a pretty straightforward, 180-yard par 3 into a small green with trees back left and bunkers on the right side. The green is a lot deeper than it is wide and can easily be a one or two-club difference depending on pin placement. The 13th hole plays 168 yards from the Blue Tees and is one of the few water holes on the golf course. Your tee shot is all carry over water into a green less than 20 yards deep with a large tree on the right. Par is a good score here. The final par 3, Number 15, plays 174 yards. With a small pot bunker directly in the middle of the front of the green, most golfers will need to carry their tee shot onto the putting surface in order to have a fair shot at par or better. The Woodford Club also has a full-length driving range just beyond the clubhouse where you can hit all of the clubs in your bag. Multiple targets give you something to shoot for. There’s also a short game area and a practice putting green will help you get the speed of the greens down before heading to the first tee. The pool at The Woodford Club seems to be a family gathering place, especially on weekends. It’s open from Memorial Day to just after Labor Day, weather permitting. There’s also a baby pool and an active youth swim team. The outdoor Conch Bar is a great place to grab a bite to eat, drink, and catch the game on TV with friends. If you’re looking for a more substantial meal, the Jack Jouett Tavern offers some of the best cuisine in Woodford County. The Tavern gets its name from an American farmer and politician best known for his “all-night ride” in which he rescued Governor Thomas Jefferson from British capture. It really says a lot when non-golfers are filling the dining room! Randy Clay kept the kitchen open for carryout during COVID and that popularity has continued ever since. The Tavern is best known for its selection of over 50 small-batch bourbons and The Tater Bomb – a fried concoction of bacon, cheese & potato balls served with red-eye ranch dip. They are a must-try! If you’re interested in becoming a member of The Woodford Club, you’re in luck. They are currently accepting applications. Several membership levels are available. Looking at the membership rates on their website, it’s quite a bargain. Pool memberships and social memberships are also available.
