Review
“Woodland CC has several Pete Dye “template holes”, especially the par 3 holes 2 and 12, and the par 4 holes 9 and 18. Woodland has a variety of risk-reward options, especially for long hitters (all par 5s) and the drivable par 4 14th. Many holes have run-up options if the previous shot is well-placed. Holes were distinct from each other exemplified by the back-to-back par 5s (holes 3 and 4), which offered very different challenges from each other."

“Well-conditioned course that has a surprising amount of undulation for central Indiana. Good mix of doglegs, length and obstacles to this tightly routed course."

“This old Bill Diddel course was re-done in classic Dye style by the Indiana legend himself a few years ago, and it's the usual circus of pot bunkers, bulkheads, and too-skinny at times holes. This is a quintessential Dye course now, always with a few very neat holes, and a handful of clunkers too."

“Bill Diddel design, Pete dye redesign. Hamilton county’s only Pete dye country club. Featured in Indiana Golf Associations Summer magazine and must play places."

Review
“Complete redesign in 2002 by Pete Dye due to club selling land off at a prominent busy corner and buying new land in a quieter and undeveloped area west of the range. In redesign Dye added a lake that #9 works around to the right hand side and #18 works around to the left hand side. #2, #3, and #9 are standout holes on the front nine while 18 is the clear standout hole on the back 9. Somewhat of a hassle to get back to the back tee on 13 and 15 and if you hadn't played here before or if you didn't know any better you may completely miss them. Design variety suffers a bit due to par 3's & par 5's all playing to similar yardage as well as the biased towards downhill holes versus uphill or flat holes, and several of the green complexes lack a bit of character/variety as well as the majority of the bunkering is somewhat bland. Some interesting Dye features such as cyclopse bunkers, #2 is a typical Dye par 3 angled against water, your common Dye 1st hole that is short and easy, and the typical Dye par 4 that works along water the entire length of the hole w/ 9 and 18. Some houses around the perimeter of the property but not in your face like residential golf development tends to be."
