Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee The first hole begins with an unbelievable view of the Atlanta city skyline that momentarily takes your thoughts away from a difficult opening tee shot. With the hole bordered on the right by Montgomery Ferry Drive, on the left by a hazard, and in front of the tee by another hazard, a very accurate tee shot is demanded.

From The Fairway If you find the fairway with your tee shot, you will need another accurate shot to hit the tiny

On The Green green surrounded in the front by two large bunkers. If you make it through this hole with a par and avoid hitting your golf ball into the road, you should be on your way to a great round of golf.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee The hazard in front of tee on the first hole now lays in your landing area for a slightly missed tee shot.

From The Fairway If you are lucky, it will bounce through into the fairway. If not so lucky, your drop will leave you with a shot over 200 yards to the green. Even though the trees to the right seem to line you up to the left, you have room to the right after the trees. The driving range is on your right with generous open spaces. Once you have crossed the creek, you must pick the right club into an uphill, two ti

On The Green There are three bunkers around the green, but none in the front to stop any shots that happen to run up the hill. Do not go over the green, because the green is sloped back toward the fairway, and it will be tough to make par.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee The first of the par threes is a tough test. This hole is not called “Train Wreck” by many members just because it runs parallel to the tracks. You will have a long iron or wood in your hands, depending on the wind, and you are hitting into a small, three tiered green. A big valley between the tee and the green make the hole look shorter than the yardage.

From The Fairway

On The Green TRUST THE YARDAGE!! If you are short of the green, the ball will roll back down the hill and make for a difficult pitch. The tiers in the green will tend to stop a shot that you think will go over. There are also severe drop-offs left and back, and out of bounds all along the right side of the hole. If you are still even par through the first three holes, you are in for great round.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Your tee shot will need to favor the right side of the fairway. This is where your ball will roll the farthest, but you must be careful of the out of bounds that is only 15 yards to the right of the fairway line. Once you are over the hill, you will see two greens. Your target is the very small green in the right half of the fairway,

On The Green guarded by two bunkers on the left. Favor the right side of the green because everything rolls back to the left once you are on the green. The green is surrounded by bunkers.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee This is your best opportunity for a birdie. There is a large hill in the landing area for the longer hitters.

From The Fairway Be careful when the course is dry. If your tee shot is not down the left side of the fairway, your shot could roll into the rough or trees to the right of the fairway. If you can see the green from the location of your tee shot, you can reach the green in two. You are better off short and in the bunkers because there is a creek behind the green.

On The Green The green has four sections for the pin placements. If the flag is in the back, right corner, do not go right at the pin unless you can put a lot of spin on the ball. It will roll over into the creek. This hole should give you a middle of the round birdie boost.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway The fairway is narrow with bunkers all down the left side and trees down the right side. You need to hug your drive just to the right of the bunkers for a perfect angle into all portions of the green.

On The Green If you try to stay away from the bunkers and push your tee shot to the right side, there are overhanging trees that will make you alter your shot into the green. From the right side, it is very difficult to get your second shot close. If the pin is on the left side of the green, favor the middle of the green with your shot. The green slopes towards the left and will put a pulled shot into the roug

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee This is a very short Par 5, and a great shot at an eagle. With a good drive towards the target bunker on the left, the longer hitters will be able to hit the green with an iron on their second shot. If you hit a bad tee shot, you may not be able get your second shot over the lake that is perfectly positioned.

From The Fairway

On The Green The longer hitters need to be careful not to hit their tee shot into the lake. The shorter hitters will have a second shot that brings in length and water. When trying to reach this green, there is a creek up the left side, next to the green that will gO-Bble up any shot that is slightly left of the mark. Add at least a half club to your shot to the green because it is slightly uphill all the way

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee These holes have the only blind shots on the course.

From The Fairway If you look down the left side of the fairway, you will see a patch of trees. That is the Johnson Grove, named after a long time member. A three wood or long iron is all that is needed for most. Do not hit your tee shot to far or you will go down a large slope with heavy rough at the end of the fairway. If you have hit the perfect drive, you will be standing at the top of the hill, on the 150 yard

On The Green The ditch that you encountered on Holes #1 & #2, is now in play in front of the green. It is also better to be a bit long and avoid the deep bunker that you must carry to the middle and right pin placements.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee Right behind this difficult Par 3, is the beautiful Ansley Clubhouse. Once again, the creek is a danger for any missed shot.

From The Fairway

On The Green The farther right the pin placement is the farther the shot is from the tee. Be careful about going straight for the pin on the right because you could find the bunker or even worse, the creek. And if you try to play safe and go to the middle of the green, be careful not to go to far to the left and over the green. It will prO-Bably take more than a chip and a putt to hole out from there. But one

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee On the back nine of your round, you now play the Par 5 13th.

From The Fairway The tee shot is set up a little straighter than the front nine. Your tee shot will still need to favor the right side of the fairway. The second shot is made difficult by the two greenside / fairway bunkers by the 4th green.

On The Green If you can carry your second over those bunkers it will leave you an easy pitch to the green. If you can not carry those bunkers, it is much safer to lay up and leave a shot in the 150 yard range.

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee Remember the short front nine Par 5? Well, now we have a difficult Par 4 for you trip towards the clubhouse.

From The Fairway The tee is moved forward a slight 15 to 20 yards depending on your tee selection with all the O-Bstacles still in play. The longer hitters need to aim at the bunker on the right to give them more room around the lake. Shorter hitters need to split the fairway bunkers for the best position. Once again, on your second shot,

On The Green add a half club to your shot to the green because it is slightly uphill all the way to the green.
