Hole #1 Par 4 345 Yards

One of the toughest starting holes
in golf. Rolling terrain makes the approach shot difficult. A long drive can make it a blind shot to the green.

Bear's Tip: An iron off the tee is a wise choice.

 






Hole #2 Par 5 458 Yards

The easiest hole on the course. The tee shot is very important to set up
a possible eagle or birdie. Failure
to execute the tee shot makes this
one of the toughest holes in golf.

Bear's Tip: Don't screw up the drive.

 






Hole #3 Par 3 165 Yards

No bunkers, no water, no tree problems, level terrain; but one of the toughest tee shots in golf. When the wind blows, nobody hits the green.

Bear's Tip: While playing in trowling winds famed octogenarian golfer Gordy Stewart had no problem finding the green. When asked how he took the wind out of play, Gordy replied, "What wind? I teed off with my putter, jackass."

 






Hole #4 Par 4 310 Yards

The easiest par 4 on the course. Straight shot, level terrain, with only
a few tree problems. When the north wind is blowing even the little guys can hit like John Daly.

Bear's Tip: After a big drive, don't get greedy. Just aim for the middle of the green. With bunkers in front and out of bounds in back, only a fool would go for the pin.

 






Hole #5 Par 4 355 Yards

One of the most beautiful views in
golf. This is the signature hole at Spring Hill G. C. A seventy foot drop from the hilltop teebox to the fairway below. Downwind brings possible birdie, a shot into the wind brings possible bogie.

Bear's Tip: When playing the hole downwind, leave the driver in the bag and let the 3-wood fly.

 






Hole #6 Par 4 340 Yards

The toughest hole at Spring Hill.
All you need to do for par is make
a perfect drive, place the perfect approach and two putt one of the
most severely sloping greens around.

Bear's Tip: Keep your approach shot below the hole. Below the hole. Below the hole. What part of below the hole don't you understand?

 






Hole #7 Par 4 355 Yards

The only hole that favors a fade off
the tee. The fairway slopes left to
right and is downhill all the way to
the green. Trees can be a problem along the right side.

Bear's Tip: A slice is not a fade.
If you execute your tee shot your approach will be from a downhill lie. Guard against going over the
green as trouble lurks behind.

 






Hole #8 Par 3 144 Yards

Surrounded by woods, two bunkers guard the front. Swirling winds make for guesswork on club selection.

Bear's Tip: Short is better than long, but throw caution to the wind, pick
a club and go for it. What's another double bogie on the card anyway?

 






Hole #9 Par 5 429 Yards

One of the easiest finishing holes
in golf. Think of it as a long par 4.
End with a birdie and make your day, because birdies will be hard to find when we add water to the hole.

Bear's Tip: On your drive let the
big dog eat but, avoid the John Bush bush because you can't birdie from there.
