Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee A short but tricky par 5 to start the round. Long hitters have to play the tee shot over the left side or as a draw in order to get into a good position to attack the target, well guarded by five bunkers and boundaries next to and behind the green, with the second shot. Normally, after a second shot, all that's left is a wedge to a relatively flat green.

On The Green

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee The first par 3 of the round is a medium-length hole, which is well guarded by three bunkers and very closely spaced trees. Depending on the position of the flag, the faceoff can leave very little room for error.

From The Fairway The bunker in front of the green and the two tall trees to the right and left in front of it can spoil the fun here.

On The Green If the green is not hit, the chips from the right or left of the green are consistently challenging. A straight tee shot is the best way to eliminate any doubts.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway This par 4 is one of the most difficult, if not the most difficult hole in the Braunschweig Golf Club. Good players try to place their tee shot on the slope that causes the fairway to drop down after about 190 meters.

On The Green If this is successful, you still have a medium to short iron on a difficult green, which slopes from the front left to the back right and is also guarded by three bunkers.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee At first glance an easy and short par 3, but depending on your ability and pin position, the pond in front of and to the left of the green comes into play.

From The Fairway Water in front and to the left, the tall trees to the right - even if it's only a good 100 m to the narrow green: the easiest hole on the front nine in terms of the handicap has its pitfalls.

On The Green It's better to play the tee shot a little longer, even if the flag is set short, because the area is open there and on the right side.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee One of the longest holes in the Braunschweig Golf Club. The key to success is straight and long shots. With the first two shots you have to overcome approx.

From The Fairway 400 meters in order to have a chance of being able to play on the raised green in the rear part of the fairway that bends to the right.

On The Green Boundaries on both sides and a green that is relatively difficult to read make this par 5 one of the most difficult holes in the Braunschweig Golf Club.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee The last par 3 hole on the front 9 shows the real difficulty in Braunschweig. The relatively long course is narrow and also has exclusions on both sides and behind the green.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green has a steep slope from back to front and every putt from the side must be calculated with a strong break.

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee The elevated tee on this medium-long par 4 allows a view over the course and onto the very narrow fairway.

From The Fairway After a good tee shot, depending on the position of the flag, you are left with a short iron or a wedge to the green, which, with two frontal, two side and one bunkers behind the green, leaves little room for error if you want to achieve a good result on this hole.

On The Green After the steep climb to the tee, the view over the course makes up for the effort. The straight drive is important here.

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee ertainly the trickiest short course in Braunschweig, which allows for a variety of playing strategies. For the good players, the pond in front of the drive zone is unlikely to be in the game.

From The Fairway The placement of the drive is difficult. Good players try to shorten over the corner of the dogleg over the right and after a successful drive only have a short pitch into the green. However, a trip off the fairway often ends in a very disappointing result.

On The Green A short par 4, but tricky and temptingly risky. What is important is a controlled tee shot to the right of the fairway bunker into the bend in the sharp dogleg to the right.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Even the strategy from the tee on this long par 5 is very challenging. The track is a dogleg to the right. A long, straight drive with the driver is not recommended here, otherwise the ball would fly over the fairway.

On The Green An aggressive strategy is to take a shortcut over the tall trees on the right or do a power fade off the tee. The second shot is no less difficult, before you can play on the raised green below the clubhouse.

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee A rather shorter par 4 as a dogleg to the left. The pond on the left rarely comes into play for better players. The main difficulty of this track lies in the green design.

From The Fairway A relatively small, elevated green with two plateaus requires the player to have very good length control.

On The Green oo much ambition is harmful (also) here! Although the landing zone is wide, if the drive goes too far to the right or too far straight, the trees spoil the joy on the way to the flag.

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee The drive on hole 11 must be placed between the fairway bunkers on the right and the pond on the left, leaving a middle iron into the green after a good drive.

From The Fairway The small and tricky green slopes down on the right side, so many balls roll off the green and then result in a difficult chip.

On The Green The very close boundary on the slope on the left side as well as the bunker to the left of the green do not allow any evasion over the left side.

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee The “Amen Corner” of Braunschweig begins with hole 12. After hole 5, hole 11 is the longest hole in the Braunschweig Golf Club. The difficulty becomes apparent from the elevated tee.

From The Fairway A very narrow fairway requires the player to make very precise shots from the tee to the green.

On The Green The green itself is very effectively protected by a bunker to the right of the green and a grass bunker to the left of the green.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee A fairly long par 3 with a difficult green. The slope behind the green only looks tempting at first glance, when you weigh the risks if you miss the green.

From The Fairway

On The Green The undulations around the green and the very moving green make it difficult to save par if the green is missed.

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee The next par 3 is also quite difficult to play. The relatively narrow green is guarded by bunkers at the front, right and left.

From The Fairway

On The Green The surrounding area with tall trees from the tee to the green makes this medium-length par 3 even more visually difficult.

Hole 15

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Supposedly a hole to take a breather, this short par 4 requires above all a precise shot with a long iron or hybrid. To the right and left of the narrow fairway, tall and closely spaced trees prevent a direct approach to the green.

On The Green

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee This slight dogleg left requires a very precise and preferably long drive from the elevated tee to the left of or in front of the fairway bunker on the right.

From The Fairway The tall trees on both sides of the fairway seem very intimidating, and not just at first glance.

On The Green The very long green, which is laid out slightly diagonally to the fairway, is not necessarily easy to play on, as it is guarded by a deep greenside bunker on the left side and a densely planted slope on the right side.

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee The final par 5 of the round only looks easy on the scorecard. Just the walk to the tee makes it clear to the players that any dispersion from the tee can easily result in a loss of the ball.

From The Fairway The good players hit their ball over the very tall trees on the right. On the left side there is an exclusion boundary near the fairway that extends all the way to the green.

On The Green Very few players then try to hit the second ball onto the multi-tiered, elevated green, which is protected by a very significant frontal bunker.

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee The final hole is the longest par 3 on the course, which is played from an elevated tee onto a spacious green. For most players, either a long iron or a hybrid is the answer.

From The Fairway A small pot bunker on the left side in front of the green gives the hole an additional challenge.

On The Green As a finale, the longest par 3 with a beautiful view of an open, wide green. You should avoid the pot bunker to the left in front of it. Otherwise, a decent piece of wood comes into its own here.
