Golf in Rushville

Rushville is the Sheridan County seat in northwestern Nebraska near the Pine Ridge breaks, a small community serving the ranch and agricultural economy of a sparsely populated county. Sheridan County sits at the boundary between the Nebraska Sandhills and the Pine Ridge, where grassland dunes give way to ponderosa pine forests and eroded buttes. Sand Ridge Golf Course takes its name from the terrain characteristic of the Sandhills edge — sand-based soil and the firm, naturally draining character of courses in this ecosystem. Sheridan County's Pine Ridge country — ponderosa pine forests growing from the eroded buttes and canyon edges of the northwestern Nebraska breaks — creates a landscape shared with adjacent South Dakota that makes this corner of the state genuinely rugged. Sand Ridge Golf Course sits in the ecological transition between Sandhills and Pine Ridge terrain.
