Deer Creek South Course

A tee shot placed down the left centre of the fairway will leave you with the ideal angle for your approach shot. Take note of the pin position, as it will affect your club section into this long green.

The ideal shot should be kept below the hole on this severely sloping green. Make sure you have enough club, since shots coming up short will roll down into the gully in front of the putting surface.

If you hit a huge left to right tee shot, you might be left with a short pitch into this green. The smart play is a 200 yard lay-up, leaving an easy shot at this well-guarded, narrow green.

A short par 3 that actually plays much tougher than it looks. Keep your tee shot below the hole to avoid the dreaded three putt.

The second longest of our 45 holes at Deer Creek. This uphill par 5 requires three good shots to reach the putting surface. Avoid the bunker on the left off the tee. Note the dogleg left for your second shot.

A good drive should reach the down slope, giving you the extra distance needed to reach this green in two. If laying-up, beware of the bunkers that pinch into the fairway around the 100 yard marker.

The perfect tee ball is a right to left shot aimed at the fairway bunker. This should leave a mid to a short iron approach into this wide but shallow firm green.

The yardage on the card should be considered all carry. However, this is the only par 3 on the South Course where you’re not penalized for being short of the green.

A tempting short par 4, but at what cost? A 200 yard tee shot will leave you with a short wedge and a great birdie opportunity. Go for it and you may have a chance at eagle. Miss, you might need a calculator to add this one up.
