Elk City Golf & Country Club is a short, scenic, fair and challenging layout that plays to a par of 71. In glancing at the scorecard below, which shows a maximum length of only 6,179 yards, one will immediately realize that the course is "friendly" to the avergae golfer, but it is not easy by any means: all greens are small targets (average is under 3,000 sq ft), subtly undulated, and some play even smaller because of "false" sides or undulations which makes precise iron play a necessity for low scoring, which makes the records below a testament to the local talent.
