Walk the course
Reunion Resort – Palmer Course hole by hole
Hole 1
360
yds ·Blue
An opening dogleg that suits a slight draw. Stay away from shots short and right of the green, which slopes from left to right.
Hole 2
128
yds ·Blue
A short par 3 from an elevated tee about 50 feet above the green, so it plays one or two clubs shorter. Check the wind before picking a club.
Hole 3
482
yds ·Blue
A par 5 that can be reached in two from a good fairway lie, or played as a three-shot hole. The green is undulating, which makes birdies hard to come by.
Hole 4
327
yds ·Blue
Aim for the right-center of the fairway. The approach is a short iron to a firm green that slopes from back to front.
Hole 5
155
yds ·Blue
A medium-length, landscaped par 3 to a multilevel green. Par is a solid score here.
Hole 6
351
yds ·Blue
Driving to the right side gives the shortest approach to a two-tiered green, so club selection matters.
Hole 7
249
yds ·Blue
A short par 4 with a risk-reward choice off the tee. The green is severely undulating and flanked by deep bunkers.
Hole 8
422
yds ·Blue
The hardest hole on the card. Aim left of center to avoid the bunkers on the right, then hit a mid-to-long iron to a large, gently sloping green.
Hole 9
515
yds ·Blue
No notes for this hole yet.
Hole 10
553
yds ·Blue
No notes for this hole yet.
Hole 11
352
yds ·Blue
Keep clear of the bunkers on the left. The fairway is elevated and gives a view of a large green, and the pin position changes how hard the hole plays.
Hole 12
349
yds ·Blue
A wide landing area, then a short-to-mid iron to an elevated green. Missing right often leaves a hard up-and-down.
Hole 13
379
yds ·Blue
Among the toughest par 4s on the card, and the second hardest hole overall. Water guards the left of the green and bunkers the right.
Hole 14
113
yds ·Blue
A short par 3 surrounded by marshland, with water short, left and right. Precise distance control with an iron is the key.
Hole 15
475
yds ·Blue
A par 5 with water in play off the tee. The riskier line down the right side gives a chance to reach the green in two.
Hole 16
150
yds ·Blue
Check the flag and the wind. Missing left can cost a bogey or worse.
Hole 17
332
yds ·Blue
No notes for this hole yet.
Hole 18
366
yds ·Blue
A closing par 4 with an uphill approach, so take an extra club. The two-tiered green slopes from back to front.
