On June 10, 1961, an exhibition match was played by Head Pro Dick Mason, Sam Snead, and two local professionals Bobby Bowers and Al Jamison, where Sam Snead shot 67.In 1963 the members purchased Mount Vernon Country Club and renamed it Woodlawn Country Club. Golf Course Architect Ed Ault designed the second nine holes which opened in 1968. In 1993 Woodlawn Country Club again became Mount Vernon Country Club.Over the past 20 years, the Club has continued to develop including significant golf course improvements which were designed by Golf Course Architect Bill Love.

FAQ
Get answers to common questions about playing Mount Vernon Country Club and what to expect.
Mount Vernon Country Club is regarded as a strategically complex layout. The slope of 142.0 places it firmly in the upper difficulty tier. The course rating of 76.9 reflects on scoring relative to par 70.
A 15 handicap golfer should consider tees closer to 6192 yards. The back tees extend to 6366.0 yards, which makes approach shots longer and scoring more challenging.
With a course rating of 76.9 and par 70, a mid-handicap golfer would typically score in the mid to high 80s. Stronger players aiming to break 70 must manage approach shots and avoid penalty strokes.
At a full length of 6366.0 yards, it balances distance with positional strategy.
Architecturally, it reflects a Parkland style. Overall, the setup will reward players who place the ball in safe positions far from hazards. Also, type of shot is more crucial rather than just trying to gain distance.
The combination of a slope rating of 142.0 and yardage reaching 6366.0 yards creates consistent pressure on approach shots. You will need to balance risk and reward, especially on longer par 4s and protected greens.
