Blueberry Hill Golf Course hole by hole
Par 3Par 4Par 5
Hole 1
317
yds ·Gold
Pine Line. A straight par 4 with a fairway that slopes right to left, trees down the whole left side, and an elevated green ringed by grass bunkers.
Hole 2
252
yds ·Gold
Risk & Reward. Downhill par 4 where long hitters can go for the green. A layup leaves a short iron to a long, narrow green with a pond short left.
Hole 3
413
yds ·Gold
The Crossing. Plays as a par 5 with generous landing areas and a pond about 60 yards short of the green. The green slopes hard from back left to front right, so missing long is tough.
Hole 4
94
yds ·Gold
The Drop. The shortest par 3 on the course, with trees on both sides, out of bounds left and steep banks around a long, narrow green.
Hole 5
485
yds ·Gold
Edge of the Earth. A par 5 with woods and a lateral hazard down the left. The safest route follows the fairway around the left side to a downhill third shot.
Hole 6
290
yds ·Gold
Decision Point. The number one handicap hole: out of bounds runs the full left side and trees guard the right. Even a good drive can leave about 200 yards to a green that slopes severely back to front.
Hole 7
308
yds ·Gold
Tactical Bend. A dogleg left with trees along the whole left side. A draw down the right-center is ideal, and the green is deep and narrow with sand on both sides.
Hole 8
140
yds ·Gold
The Gauntlet. A long par 3 that needs nearly a full carry over water and then a steep uphill approach to a deep green with grass bunkers either side.
Hole 9
329
yds ·Gold
Summit. An uphill par 4 with a fairway that slopes left to right. Stay right of the trees on the left, and take an extra club for the uphill approach. The parking lot is out of bounds.
Hole 10
335
yds ·Gold
Reflection Point. A precise tee shot is needed: large white pines block the right side, and a pond sits about 250 yards out. Water and steep banks guard the left and back of the green, so miss right.
Hole 11
128
yds ·Gold
Backstop. A par 3 to a wide but shallow green with deep grass bunkers short left and right. Out of bounds and trees run down the right side, and the bank behind the green makes a long miss hard to save.
Hole 12
477
yds ·Gold
The Launch Pad. A severely downhill tee shot that calls for a layup short of a large pond. The second shot plays to a dogleg right, and the green slopes from back left to front right. Out of bounds guards the right side.
Hole 13
288
yds ·Gold
Calculated Risk. A dogleg left with water protecting the entrance to the green and a bailout area to the right.
Hole 14
410
yds ·Gold
Eagle's Opportunity. The most forgiving hole, with wide landing areas and a large green that makes this par 5 a real eagle chance.
Hole 15
386
yds ·Gold
Water's Edge. Water runs down the right side from tee to green, so the left-center of the fairway gives the best angle in.
Hole 16
114
yds ·Gold
The Bowl. A par 3 to a bowl-shaped green. Aim for the center of the green whatever the pin position.
Hole 17
307
yds ·Gold
Forced Hand. A sharp dogleg left that needs a precise layup off the tee, followed by a second shot over water to a shallow green with no bailout.
Hole 18
308
yds ·Gold
Final Ascent. An uphill finisher between the driving range on the left and a tree line on the right. The green slopes right to left with a deep bunker on the right.
