I have played both courses, and enjoyed both. I think CW is in better condition. Ragged has a lot of blind shots, and shots that place you near a hazard (often times one that runs across the fairway). The first couple of times we played there, we had a lot of trouble judging distances and what to hit, especially off the tee. Some of the hazards were not visible from the tee and there was nothing to tell you at the tee box how far it was to the hazard or to clear the hazard. The last time we played there (last year), they had yardage books that helped out a lot. It is a fun course to play, but can be costly in lost balls. Several holes require good straight shots, and a hook or slice can find trouble.
Another course I can recommend, because I belong there and have for over three years, is Lochmere on Rtes 3 & 11 in Tilton. It's about a mile and a half or two east of the intersection of Rtes 3-11 and I 93, heading towards Laconia. Ph 528-4653 then press two for the proshop.
Keep your head down, chin in, eye on the ball, weight distributed equally, make a good full turn, don't overswing on the way down, follow through, and finish on balance. Oh yeah, I hope you remember to hit the ball in the middle of all that advice
. Enjoy, whereever you play...a bad day on the golf course is far better and more fun than any good day in the office.
