Flying B Golf Course sits in Salem, Ohio, roughly midway between Cleveland and Pittsburgh and within a short drive of the Boardman, Columbiana and Ravenna areas. Known to regulars simply as "The B," it has served area golfers for more than five decades.
The layout plays to a par of 71 over 6,288 yards, with closely manicured fairways and quick greens that give the course a country-club feel while still presenting a test for a range of abilities.
The course has been owned and operated by the Ritchie family since its early days, and it has retained much of its down-home character over the years.
