Hole by HoleHole By Hole Description Hole 1 – Par 4 Blue: 335 White: 325 Gold: 305 Red: 291 This opening hole is a short par 4, where you want to keep your tee shot right of the fairway bunker. Your approach shot is to a small green with a bunker on either side. Most putts on this green break toward the water on the right. Hole 2 – Par 4 Blue: 352 White: 334 Gold: 318 Red: 308 An accurate tee shot is required to avoid out of bounds down the entire left side and the water hazard down the right side. Your approach shot is to a narrow green the typically breaks to the left. Hole 3 – Par 3 Blue: 180 White: 153 Gold: 130 Red: 120 This par 3 is harder the further back you play it from. With a tree blocking the middle part of the green and bunkers surrounding the rest of it, the best play is to hit it to the front left, take your two putt and move on to the next hole. Hole 4 – Par 4 Blue: 414 White: 395 Gold: 352 Red: 346 This is one of the hardest holes on the course. Your drive should favor the left side in order to have a straight and blind approach shot into a green with two bunkers on the left and one bunker front right. No matter where the pin is, the best shot is to the middle of middle. Par is a good score on this hole. Hole 5 – Par 4 Blue: 347 White: 321 Gold: 284 Red: 272 A short par 4 that requires a straight lay up shot to a waste area 90 yards from the green. This green runs from front to back. Hole 6 – Par 4 Blue: 357 White: 340 Gold: 315 Red: 291 Your tee shot should be hit right middle to have the best angle to this uphill green. You want to be sure to keep your approach shot under the hole to ensure an uphill putt on this sloping green. Note: When standing on 5 tee box, look right to take a mental note of where 6 pin is located. Hole 7 – Par 3 Blue: 248 White: 231 Gold: 211 Red: 197 One of the toughest par 3’s in the South Jersey region. Playing almost 250 yards from the back tee, this green has a mound on each the left and right side making it tough to chip over the bunkers and hold the green. Best place to leave your tee shot is in front of the green and either chip or putt up. Making a bogey is not a bad score. Hole 8 – Par 5 Blue: 502 White: 491 Gold: 455 Red: 429 A reachable par 5 for the longer hitter, your tee shot should favor the left side. A lay up shot should be left far enough back to play a full shot into a green that runs front to back and is surrounded by bunkers. Hitting it over the green leaves for a tough chip. Hole 9 – Par 4 Blue: 411 White: 386 Gold: 341 Red: 304 An accurate tee shot is required with out of bounds left and trees right. Getting to the top of the hill with your tee shot is not only a big hit, but will give you a view of this wide green. Your approach shot should be left under the pin and over the green makes for an almost impossible up and down. Hole 10 – Par 4 Blue: 466 White: 452 Gold: 392 Red: 349 This is the number 1 handicap hole for men, simply because of its length. Your tee shot needs to avoid the fairway bunkers right and out of bounds left. Your approach shot should be kept short of the pin and again, hitting it over the back makes for a tough up and down. Hole 11 – Par 3 Blue: 165 White: 143 Gold: 119 Red: 104 This is a short par 3 over a water hazard. With a bunker 10 yards short, if you do miss the green, the easiest chip shot is from the left side. Hole 12 – Par 4 Blue: 349 White: 333 Gold: 320 Red: 313 Your tee shot should favor the right side with a hazard running down the entire left side. Your approach shot it to a relatively flat but tricky green. Hole 13 – Par 4 Blue: 351 White: 336 Gold: 316 Red: 303 An accurate tee shot is required on this short par 4. Positioning is more important then length, with a water hazard just past the end of the fairway. Your approach shot is to a severely back to front sloping green where hitting it over the green is dead. Hole 14 – Par 5 Blue: 514 White: 483 Gold: 436 Red: 400 This is a reachable par 5 for the big bomber, but a 3 shot hole for most players. With out of bounds right and trees left, an accurate tee shot is required. Your lay up should leave you between 150 to 120 yards from the green for a flat lie. Your approach shot is to an elevated green where carry is a must. A quick putt will be left when you hit it past the pin. Hole 15 – Par 3 Blue: 124 White: 112 Gold: 104 Red: 97 This is a short par 3 with a little back to front sloping green. Your tee shot should be left under the hole. Hole 16 – Par 4 Blue: 400 White: 387 Gold: 375 Red: 343 This is a very straight par 4 with a narrow fairway. Your approach shot will be to one of the bigger greens at Pennsauken Country Club, but still leaves for tricky putting. Hole 17 – Par 4 Blue: 315 White: 295 Gold: 282 Red: 271 This is a reachable par 4 for the 300 plus yard drive. You want to be sure to avoid the cross bunkers 80 yards short of the green as well as the bunkers down the right. This hole is a birdie opportunity with a good tee shot. Hole 18 – Par 4 Blue: 420 White: 396 Gold: 377 Red: 346 With a dogleg right finishing hole, your tee shot should favor the left side. Your approach shot is to a slightly elevated green with bunkers surrounding the back, left and right sides. Being under the pin will leave you an uphill putt to end your round on a good note! |
