Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Intimidating tee shot to start the round as you have to keep in between the trees left & right. The longer hitters have the option of going up and over the trees on the left. A good drive and 2nd shot will leave you with a wedge to short iron approach into a green that falls off front & back. If the pin is up front, it is best to play short; if the pin is in back it is best to error long. A great

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Finding the fairway is critical here, as you want to hit a shot that gets far enough to get past the trees on the left but doesn’t run out into the fairway bunker straight away. If you hit a good drive you are usually left with 130 – 170 yard approach into a green that slopes dramatically from right to left. Hitting the green on your 2nd shot is important because the green sits up above the surrou

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A demanding par three that requires a good tee shot to hit a wide green that is narrow front to back. Make sure to check the wind before you select your club on this tee. The green slopes from right to left, with the front left third of the green severely sloped. If you are to miss this green – left is the place to be, as you will set yourself up with an uphill chip shot.

Hole 4

From The Tee The number 1 handicap hole. Straight away, slightly uphill. Nothing fancy here, just straight and tree lined. The green is slightly slanted from right to left and does have bunkers on all the sides. Par here is always a good score.

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Another important driving hole early in the round with this slight dogleg to the left. Favor the right side with your drive, as the fairway slopes from right to left, and a huge valley on the left almost ensures a bogey or worse. The second shot plays a little shorter than the yardage and the big green slopes from left to right. If you par #4 and #5 you’re off to a great start!

Hole 6

From The Tee This hole’s drive is straight up a large hill. Trees on both sides, but if you miss favor the right side as you can still hit a punch shot up to the green from this position. The most difficult green on the golf course as is slopes off both left and right. Going long of this green is a big mistake as you are left with a very difficult shot.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Not a long par four and the easiest hole on the front 9 is pretty open off the tee. A fairway bunker on the left can catch your ball as the fairway narrows at this point. If you hit the fairway you will have a short iron in your hand hitting into another somewhat undulating green that is sloped from back to front and left to right. A couple of bunker protect the green short, and going long here le

Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee The longest of the par 3s at Oakwood. The biggest thing here is your alignment on the tee box. The tees aim you right and many balls end up there. The green is large and could be the flattest on the front 9. There are big bunkers on both sides and a tee shot on the green is a good shot. Having your tee shot end up short, and in front of the green is not a bad spot to be as you are left with a basi

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A very demanding tee ball, especially from the back tees. Finding the fairway is premium on this hole, so a lot of players will hit 3 woods or hybrids to keep the ball in play. Trees line both sides of this hole as it doglegs to the left – lateral hazard runs down the entire length of the hole on the left, and the driving range is out of bounds on the right. Oakwood’s famous overhanging tree at th

Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A slight dogleg to the left with trees along both sides. A tee ball to the left or right off the fairway can trap you behind trees and the rough on the left side is always thick. The green slopes severely from back to front, and the back right pin location is the toughest on this green. This is another hole where you don’t want to hit your approach shot long as it will leave a difficult up and dow

Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A short and straight par four that is a good chance to make a birdie or par. Some players will hit less than driver off the tee to keep it short of the fairway bunker on the right side of the fairway. The second shot is usually a shorter iron, from a fairway that slopes from right to left, to a good sized green. There are bunkers short on both sides of the green, and the green falls off on the bac

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Straight away, long, and tree lined. If you hit a long drive you will get some extra distance as it will roll down the hill to the flat, which will leave you with a much more manageable shot into the green. If you tee shot stays at the top of the hill you will be left with a longer 2nd shot to a difficult green that is only 17 yards back to front and 35 yards wide. Keeping the ball below the hole

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee The easiest hole on the course, that offers a great chance to make a birdie. A tighter driving hole than it may appear as players try to avoid the lake on the left side of the hole and commonly leave their drives out to the right and down in the valley. If you are able to commit to you shot and hit it down the fairway you are off to a good start. For the longer hitters there is a good chance to hi

Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee A mid to short iron approach from the tee to another wide but shallow green. A bunker up front protects the right half of this green. However, if you find the bunker it is a pretty straight-forward bunker shot. Once on the green there is some undulations that can leave you scratching you head. Ideally knock it on the middle of the green, two putt for par and head to the next Par 5.

From The Tee
From The Fairway This par 5 has the most undulated fairway. The tee ball is critical as you look to stay to the left half of the fairway. Good chance for a side hill type lie but this is the best spot. If you go right, you will fight trees the rest of the hole. The second shot narrows dramatically around the 125 yard range and it levels out to the green. The green is protected on the right side by 2 bunkers and ha

From The Tee
From The Fairway This shorter par 4 has a lot of character. A fairway bunker on the right, which make the tee ball landing zone very small, and a 43 yard green from front to back, can leave you with a long putt. Driver is not always the play with trees on both sides, as a lot of players with hit fairway wood or long iron for positioning. The second shot can vary greatly based on where the pin is located in the fro

Hole 17

From The Tee This par 3 is slightly down hill as the green runs diagonal to the tee. It is guarded by two pot bunkers on the front right, and a collection area behind the green if you go long. The green slopes from right to left and most shots come up short. If you miss short you are left with a difficult chip shot as the green is elevated from the surround. Play for the middle of the green, and try to leave y

Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway Oakwood’s finishing hole has recently been renovated into a very long and demanding dogleg right. The tee shot should be aimed straight away at the fairway bunker, as tee shots that get lost to the right will struggle with tree trouble for the remainder of the hole. The second shot is usually approached with a longer iron, as the green is guarded in the front by two large bunkers. The second shot
