Blue Ridge Country Club in Galax, Virginia, plays 6,164 yards from the Blue tees, with a course rating of 70.5 and a slope rating of 131. Three additional sets of tees are in place, making the layout playable for a range of skill levels.
The front nine is largely flat, though several greens sit elevated, and water is a recurring factor: two ponds, plus Cranberry Creek, which affects four holes. The back nine shifts to hillier ground and includes three par threes as well as the course's longest par five.
The club holds a number of tournaments each year for both men and women. A Ladies' Association plays Tuesday mornings through the warmer months, and a Men's Senior Group competes in both club and inter-club events.
