1The opening hole at Fox Hopyard is a slightly downhill par four with a gentle dogleg right.As with all of the holes at the Hopyard, precision is more important than power. A well-placed tee ball leaves a shot iron into a green guarded on the left by a grass depression an2This medium length uphill par four plays significantly longer than its yardage.The tee shot can be intimidating as it must carry a large wetland. The uphill fairway also slopes right to left making the approach shot that much more challenging. You should hit 3This picturesque par five continues up the same hill as the number two. To safely reach the fairway one must first negotiate a beautiful yet frightening crevice in the earth.The second shot should be positioned down the left side of the fairway to avoid the steep drop-off to the right leaving a short approach shot.4If there ever was a hole that could take your breath away, this is it.This par three drops a full 90 feet from tee to green. Seven tees grace the hillside offering a variety of angles to the largest green on the course. Club selection is at a premium5This risk/reward downhill par five offers a beautiful panoramic view.A well- struck tee ball that avoids the hazard right and large fairway bunker left offers the bold player the prospect of getting home in two.The downhill second may also be played conservatively to a plateau 75 yards from the green which is surrounded by hazards.6This “cape-style” par four offers one of the most dramatic tee shots at Fox Hopyard.Bite off what you can chew as a bold and well- executed tee ball offers a very short iron into an inviting green. The prudent player will assay a route more to the right leaving a 7One of the most difficult holes on the front nine, this par four requires precision both off the tee and into the greenWetlands flank the entire left side of this dogleg left. Water hazards and wetlands abound. Club selection off the tee is critical. Select enough club to carry the wetland down the8This medium-length par three is all carry over a lake to the green which is wide yet shallow.Take plenty of clubs because a mis-club or mis-hit shot may hit the bank and roll back into the lake.9The landing area on this long par four measures some 60 yards across at 180 yards from the green.However, the closer you get to the green the narrower the fairway becomes until you are finally pinched between the hazard left and fairway bunkers right.The real challenge is with the approach shot. a gaping bunker and hazard lurk on the left and the multi- tired green is a full three clubs from front to back.10The inward nine begins with a narrow, tree-lined downhill par four.The second shot is played from a slightly downhill lie to a long, narrow green that drops off on the right.11This medium-length par three is the only hole at Fox Hopyard without a bunker.A vast wetland and a rock wall front the green offering no forgiveness for a mishit approach shot.12One of the most dramatic holes at the Hopyard.This long par four has one of the widest landing areas but like number nine the fairway narrows as you get closer to the green.The second shot is played over wetlands to a wide and shallow green with a deep swale on the right.13If the tee shot on number four takes your breath away, the tee shot on number thirteen will make your knees shakeThis long par four requires a long carry off the tee over the wetland. The difficulty on the tee ball is compounded by a prevailing wind that is generally in your face. The second This multi- tired green once again promises to challenge even the most proficient putter.14This long par three starts on an elongated tee box that directs you to the well-bunkers green that is carved into a wooded backdrop. Ahigh, soft tee shot is necessary to hold this small green; otherwise, a good test of your short game is to be expected.15This dogleg right par five provides mystery from the tee. With the out-of-bounds left and hazard on the right, the tee shot needs not to be too long but must be accurate.This hole will almost always be a three-shot hole. The spacious fairway narrows before the hazard which guards the elevated green.16This slightly downhill par three can be described in two ways; from the front: accessible, from the back: Herculean.No matter your choice of tees you will find your target a large and rolling green protected by front bunkers left and right.17The seventeenth tee provides a serene pond-site setting with a beautiful view of the eighteenth green and clubhouse.The fairway on the long dogleg right par four is invisible from the tee. The uphill second shot is played generally into a prevailing wind, necessitating a long iron or fairway woo18Our home hole is a dramatic par five with plenty of room off the tee.A large bunker frames the fairway off the tee. A large pond skirts the right side of the hole from 180 yards in and a series of bunkers line the left side of the approach area. TheYour efforts will not go unnoticed at this finishing hole as the clubhouse is perched high above the green.
