1The opening hole is a downhill par five which has a fairway that slopes sharply from left to right.Out of bounds runs the entire length of the hole on the right side. A well placed tee shot should hug the left side of the fairway.Most player’s second shot will be a lay up, while longer hitters may try to reach the well bunkered green in two.2This short and scenic par four features water on the left and two bunkers on the right. Long hitters might consider teeing off with an iron or 3-wood. Depending upon hole location 3This tough par four doglegs right up a significant hill to a narrow, well bunkered green.Playing the right side over the five bunkers is a risky decision since ending up in a bunker makes reaching the green in two a difficult task. The smart play is to aim your drive dThe green features severe slope from back to front, try to stay below the flagstick.4The fourth hole is a very difficult and challenging Par 3, which offers some outstanding vistas.There is a small runway between a bunker and mound on the left and a deep yawning bunker on the right, which makes it possible to run your tee shot onto the green. Proper club sele5The par four fifth hole requires a precise tee shot to a fairway bordered by a large bunker on the right and trees on the left.Favor the left center of the fairway. The approach shot is to a large two-tier green -- the left side higher than the right side with a ridge that runs straight down the center. ThThe green is framed on both sides by bunkers. A true shot-makers hole and typical of what makes Metropolis such an outstanding golf course.6Metropolis' signature hole ranked by golf publications as one of 18 best in the Metropolitan Area and 500 best holes in the world, proves that a relatively short par four with onlyThe hole starts with an elevated tee shot to a rolling fairway that slopes left. The premium here is on accuracy off the tee. The drive should favor the right side.If you are too far left your second shot may be O-Bstructed. Longer hitters might consider an iron or 3-wood off the tee. The downhill lie on your second shot makes it difficult to7The seventh hole is one of the longer par fours on the course and has been statistically the hardest when Metropolis hosts area championships.The fairway narrows starting around 200 yards from the green. A tee shot left or right is either in the woods, bunker or creek. Two good shots are required to reach this green. AccAnother green rebuilt in 2013, which slopes from back to front and right to left. It is advisable to try and stay below the flagstick.8Number eight is an uphill dogleg left.A well placed tee shot here will split the two guide bunkers fronting the fairway. The fairway slopes severely from left to right.The green is approximately 75 feet above the tee, making the hole play longer than its yardage. Club selection is important for the second shot here, if in doubt take an extra club9This is a classic par three design, short on length but long on trouble.The green is surrounded by bunkers and is also quite deep (about 35 yards) and severely undulated. There could easily be a two club difference between front and back hole locations10The tenth hole is an extremely difficult downhill dogleg right. Off the tee, there is out of bounds to the far right which prevents many from trying to “cut” the dogleg. PlayinMost second shots are from a down hill or side hill lie, making the hole even more challenging. The green is protected on both sides by bunkers and slopes from front to back causin11Number eleven is the longest hole on the course. When it was originally designed, it was the longest hole in the Metropolitan area.There are bunkers on the right and left side of the fairway off the tee which must be avoided and out of bounds along the entire left side of the hole.The first half of the hole is uphill and the second half is downhill. The fairway slopes from right to left. Your second shot will likely be from an uphill lie. Aim up the right si12The twelfth hole is a long, severely undulating dogleg left. The tee shot is a real risk/reward shot. “Cutting” the dogleg is possible, and the reward can be a flat lie with a However, the risk of either being short left, off the fairway left, or thru the fairway usually results in a lay up or pitch out. Shorter hitters should hit down the left center toThe green on number twelve is one of the flattest on the course, so do not look for a break that is not there.13The thirteenth hole is another example of an uphill hole. There is a distinct elevation change from tee to green. Depending upon wind conditions, the hole can play 15 to 25 yards lThe green has a back left tier which makes for some interesting putts and hole locations. Do not come up short here, as any shot landing short of the green may roll back down the m14The fourteenth hole is a great par four with a pond to the right located just short of the two-tiered green.Aim your tee shot up the left side of the fairway and work the ball back to the center. Your second shot appears to play a little downhill, but it really does not because the greenThe putting surface has a severe tier separating the lower front portion from the upper rear part of the green; the green also pitches slightly to the right. It is very important t15The fifteenth hole, while rated the easiest, generates its share of bogeys and double bogeys. It is a short par three which can play a half to a full club longer depending on condiThe green slopes severely from back to front and is protected on all sides by deep bunkers.16This is a short par five that is definitely reachable in two shots by a long hitter.The drive should favor the left side of the fairway. Blast away and try to put yourself in a position to go for the green in two.When approaching the green from any distance you should beware of the protective bunkers. If you cannot go for the green on the second shot, the smart play is to lay up on the left17The seventeenth hole is a short and straight par four which demands accuracy from start to finish.You may want to use a long iron or fairway wood off the tee to stay within the narrow fairway. Aim your second shot toward the center of the green.This is the smallest green on the course and you will have a good birdie putt to any hole location from there. The green is protected by sand on the left as well as behind with a m18The finishing hole doglegs gently to the right with trees, a grass bunker, as well as out-of-bounds guarding the right side.A well placed drive will wind up in the left center of the fairway, leading to a second shot into the green from a flat lie (which is rare on this course). Pay attention to your yaIf you are between clubs, select the lesser of the two, because getting up and down from in front of the green is fairly easy. The green has two-tiers with the right side higher th
