Ironwood is 30 minutes from Buffalo a few miles east of East Aurora on US 20 surrounded by farmland and forests.

The layout's front nine is carved through the deep woods while the backside is primarily along, broad, fescue lined fairways with scattered trees at the borders. The short par 4s are guarded by sand bunkers, fairway cuts, and water hazards. The par 5s that are reachable in two are protected by hazards with devilish greens. There's blind shots, numerous risk/reward scoring opportunities, and a short par 4 18th to settle the bet. The course was designed by Scott Ritter on an old family farm in the foothills of the Alleghenies in 2004 and plays to 6,418 yards at the tips, 69.9/115, course/slope ratings, or 5,941 from the white tees, 67.6/110 course and slope ratings.
