Liberty Park is a park serving the Woodbridge community at the outskirts of Manteca, California. In addition to other attractions, the park features a small put-put course.
The "Chipping Greens" consist of only four holes, but their special attraction lies in the design. They resemble four of the most famous greens in the world of Golf.
Usage is free for local residents. Visitors can purchase a day pass for all Woodbridge facilities, including its two mini-golf courses for $5.00.

The Pebble Beach Green
The green at the easterly edge is designed to replicate the green at the 17th hole at Pebble Beach, CA, which is the home of the annual PGA's Pro-Am Tournament. It is a fairly even two level green with steep fringe areas. The sand traps and the surrounding redwood trees mimic the Pebble Beach Course. Unfortunately, we couldn't replicate the ocean.

The Harbor Town Green
The connecting green in the middle of the course is patterned after the 18th green of Harbor Town at Hilton Head, SC - one of the most recognizable and difficult holes in U.S. Golf and final point of the annual RBC Heritage Classic.
The iconic view down the hole to the Hilton Head Lighthouse is replaced by a view of Liberty Park's Icon, the Windmill. |

The St. Andrews Green
The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews is one of the oldest and one of the most famous in all of golf. It is home of the British Open about every five years. It is characterized by deep sand traps and small greens with strong cross slopes.
The hole in the park's southwest corner approximates that difficult combination, most notably the 17th green at St. Andrews with it's "Road Bunker" before the green.

|
The Augusta Green
The final (northwesterly) hole with its three ensnaring sand traps captures the spirit of the 12th green in August, Georgia; home of Masters Golf Tournament.
Once the surrounding Azaleas have grown a little bit, this green will be an almost precise replica of Augusta's famous "Golden Bell" Hole. |

The park's size is about 250 ft x 100 ft, thus the greens do not resemble the whole length of the original courses, but only the putting greens, making this a pup-put course.
