Luzerne County sits in the heart of the Wyoming Valley, where the ridgelines of the Pocono Mountains give way to rolling, wooded terrain that has shaped this part of northeastern Pennsylvania for generations. Drums itself is a small community in the valley between Hazleton and Wilkes-Barre, and the landscape here — second-growth hardwoods, rocky hillsides, and the sandy glacial soils that define much of the region — creates a natural canvas for golf that feels distinctly Appalachian.
Sand Springs Golf Club is a semi-private or daily-fee layout of the kind that serves as the backbone of golf in working-class Pennsylvania communities. Courses like this one carry a social function beyond the game itself, functioning as gathering places for local leagues, twilight regulars, and junior programs that have introduced generations of players to the sport.
The name is telling. Sandy, well-draining soils are a genuine asset in a region that sees cold, wet springs and early falls, and they often produce firm, fast conditions that reward ground-game thinking over the aerial approach favored at resort-style layouts.
