Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The opening fairway is a dogleg right to a blind landing area, leaving an approach shot to a large green protected by front bunkers left and right.
From The Fairway Note the yellow aiming flag in the middle of the fairway.
On The Green Accuracy is a premium on this hole with out of bounds to the left and a severe drop behind the green.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee This uphill hole features a large green protected by out of bounds left and a front right bunker. A small pond in front of the tee may collect weak or wayward shots. Putting skill will be tested by small undulations in the green.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A large tree in the middle of the uphill fairway makes a great target off the tee. Aggressive players might go left to shorten the hole, leaving a second shot that could flirt with out of bounds on the slight dogleg left.
On The Green A generous lay-up area leaves a short iron shot into a downhill green. This hole can be reached in two for the longer hitters but not without risk as the green is protected by front and side bunkers and out of bounds long.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This dogleg right fairway requires a straight or left-to-right tee shot to avoid the large tree taunting the right side of the tee box. Bunkers protect the right and left tee-shot landing areas, with out of bounds on both sides, too
On The Green Approach shots below the hole and left will give you the best chance at par as a bunker protects the front right of the green with out of bounds long.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Out of bounds on both sides and bunkers left protect this straight-away, tree lined fairway.
From The Fairway An accurate tee shot can provide an opportunity for longer hitters to go for the green in two; beware, however, of the cathedral bunkers left. Going long right on your approaching lay-up shot may send your ball through the fairway into a bunker 60 yards short of the green.
On The Green A lay-up shot to around 100 yards leaves an uphill approach to a deep green with fronting bunkers left and right. Do your best to avoid three putts on this tricky green.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Accuracy and patience are rewarded on this challenging dogleg-left, downhill then uphill hole that plays longer than it appears. To avoid out of bounds on both sides, keep your tee shot between the bunkers protecting the right and left of the fairway.
On The Green You can carry the left bunker for a shorter approach shot, but going too far risks landing in the lake fronting the large green that slopes back to front. Stay below the hole to avoid three putts.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee With a creek running left of the fairway and a grassy hillside to the right, an accurate tee shot is a must on this hole.
From The Fairway A large, end-of-fairway tree protects the left side of the green, so be sure to approach from the right side.
On The Green The creek curves to the right in front of the relatively flat green with out of bounds left and long.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee A beautiful dry stone fence defines out of bounds to the right and behind the green. A generous landing area in front of the green allows for a straight forward chip or pitch shot but stay away from the large bunker at the left side of the green.

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee This testy par 4 has out of bounds on both sides.
From The Fairway The generous fairway slopes right to left with a bunker on the right hand side. At its end, the fairway veers slightly right to an elevated green protected by a bunker front left.
On The Green Birdies are few on this tough-to-read green.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This scenic par 3, our signature hole and one of the most majestic golf holes in Kentucky, features an 80-foot drop in elevation from tee to green, making it play shorter than advertised.
On The Green Club selection can be interesting due to the depth of the green, making for at least a two-club difference depending on pin position. A creek flows in front of the green while large bunkers protect both right and left.

Hole 11
Hole Name

From The Fairway Long and left is a no-no due to the large trees and the creek protecting the green.
On The Green Bunkers on both sides of the green and out of bounds long demand a solid shot into the green.

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Off-track tee shots on this straight, tree-lined par 4 are challenged on the left by out of bounds and a bunker and on the right by a pebbly waste area.
From The Fairway
On The Green The large green is protected by a pond to the right and bunkers both right and left. Stay below the pin for uphill putts.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Long hitters might be tempted to cut the dogleg-left corner but beware the fairway bunker and trees.
On The Green A waste area to the right and out of bounds on both sides can harass wayward tee shots. Avoid the bunker to the right on your approach shot to give yourself the best chance at par on this relatively flat green.

Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Welcome to another dogleg-left fairway protected by out of bounds, a waste area and trees. Tee shots down the right may carry through the fairway into the rough.
On The Green Take note of the trees left and bunker right when choosing your approach shot to the large, slightly elevated green. Par is a great score here.

Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Straight down the middle-right is where you want your drive to land on this tempting dogleg-left fairway protected left by out of bounds and a low waste area and gnarly rough.
From The Fairway Middle right leaves the best angle for your approach shot, given the tall trees guarding a direct shot to the green from the left side. Lay-up shots running through the fairway may catch a bunker in the 70-yard vicinity.
On The Green Note the pair of bunkers guarding the left and middle portions of the green. The fairway’s last 100 yards is steeply uphill creating a longer hole than the yardage indicates. Take care to stay below the pin, however, to avoid three putts.

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This longish, straight-away par 4 has a bunker guarding the right side of the fairway and trees and out of bounds guarding the left side.
On The Green The green is slightly uphill so be sure to take a little extra club. This is the only green on the course totally unprotected by bunkers.

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee You’ll need every inch of tee-shot distance you can muster to reach this large green that can play up to two clubs difference from front to back. A generous chipping area in the front provides safe haven from the threatening bunker to the left and the trees to the right.

Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee The Frankfort Country Club’s closing hole will test your nerves and shot-making ability. The uphill and steeply sloping left-to-right fairway is protected by out of bounds to the left and a lateral water hazard to the right.
From The Fairway Trees line both sides of the hole. At fairway’s end, overhanging trees challenge approach shots to the green from the left and a bunker menaces wayward shots on the right.
On The Green On the green, small undulations make for interesting putting. This hole always comes up in post-round conversation at the 19th Hole Grill.
