Gillette Ridge is an 2002 Arnold Palmer/Ed Seay designed course in Bloomfield, the northwest suburb of Hartford. The course measures 7191 yards, 72 handicap rating, and 133 slope rating, fortunately, there's 4 sets of tees. The course is always in top condition, and is routed over a rolling tree lined hills with a nice change in elevation. There are a few peninsula greens which were constructed using the granite from the excavation on the site. There are several forced carries to fairways and approaches to the greens, but the course is otherwise traditional in its layout with plenty of bunkers and water features.

This is another beautiful course up in BLoomfield, you pass it going to Wintonbury Hills Golf Course. Very nice design, few blind shots and force carries. there is a short par 4 but its baiting you to get into trouble.its worth the trip.
