Some helpful hints ... to make your round at Green Valley Golf Club more
enjoyable!
FLAG POSITIONS (RED FLAG - FRONT | WHITE FLAG - MIDDLE | BLUE FLAG - BACK)
YARDAGE MARKERS TO CENTER OF THE GREEN (BLUE -200 YARDS, WHITE -150 YARDS,
RED -100 YARDS)
#1 - Keep your drive on the right side of the fairway, but there is OB
right of the tree line so be careful.This will leave you a short iron
in.
The green slants from back to front. Keep the ball short of the pin if
you can. PAR 4.....293 yards.
#2 - Keep your drive on the right side, as the ball will come off the
hillside back to the fairway. Keep your approach shot short
of the pin if it's a red flag. PAR 4.....327 yards.
#3 - Green slants back to front, yes, once again try to keep your tee
shot short of the pin if it's a red flag. It's nice to putt uphill
whenever possible on this course. You can play your tee shot left of this
green as it will come off the hill. Any shot short or right of this
green is asking for trouble.PAR 3.....148 yards.
#4 - Straight away hole on this tree lined fairway. Fairway slopes to
the right which could put your in trouble if it goes to far right
and into the trees. Good play is a fairway wood or long iron off the tee
which would leave you with a middle iron into a small green.
If you miss this green, miss it short. PAR 4.....324 yards.
#5 - Alright....it's time to make a birdie. Here is a dogleg right par
5 that can get you a stroke back on. Keep your tee shot middle
to left side of the fairway. You want to favor left of the green on your
second shot as the ball will go right when it gets on the ground.
PAR 5.....469 yards
#6 - Slight dogleg right. See the opening in the trees in the foreground
from the tee box...that's where the green is. Now find the
directional flag on the left side of the fairway and that's where we need
to go. Your second shot needs to be played short of this green
and it will run on off the downslope. This is a green that you can't go
left, right or long on. PAR 4.....390 yards.
#7 - Finally a relaxing hole. Short par three from an elevated tee box
to a green that sits in a little valley. Ball will release from a shot
off the right hillside. PAR 3.....114 yards.
#8 - A short par four dogleg right that I highly encourage that is played
with a tee ball staright away at about 175 to 200 yards. This will
put you in the middle of the fairway and a wedge shot into this green.
If you want to grip it and rip it, you may try to cut the corner and
fly the trees and at about 235 yards you may reach the green. Be aware
that there is a pond in front of the green and everything right of
the treeline is OB. PAR 4 .....270 yards.
#9 - Straight away par five where you can let the shaft out of the driver.
Play your tee shot down the right side as the ball will advance
forward off the hillside. Second shot narrows up around the green. Out
of bounds can be in play if you push your second shot right.
A good second shot should leave a short iron or wedge into this green
and leave yourself short of the flag. PAR 5.....545 yards.
#10 - After a drink and a sandwich at the turn, it's now back to the
course. An uphill straight away hole here. Let the driver fly. You might
want to favor the right side of the holeto give you a better look at the
green. This will leave you with a short iron into this severe back to
front
green....you must be short of any flag on this green. PAR 4.....307 yards.
#11 - Another straight away hole with the fairway sloping to the left.
Second into this elevated green should be short of the pin. PAR 4.....330
yards.
#12 - Probably the easiest hole on the golf course. This dogleg right
par five can lead to a birdie, if not an eagle for the long hitters. Place
your
tee shot down the left side of the fairway as this hole slopes to the
right. This will leave you an iron shot off a slight downhill lie. Get
the
strokes back here, because the fun is about to begin. Just be careful
of the creek that runs the length of the down the rightside. PAR 5.....477
yards.
#13 - TOUGH...TOUGH...TOUGH Par three. Try to hit your tee shot left
of the green as the hillside will funnel right into a green that
is three tiered and as tricky as any green out here. If you two putt this
hole, pat yourself on the back. PAR 3.....161 yards.
#14 - Slight dogleg right. Hit your tee shot to the right as the hillside
will help you get back to a fairway that slopes to the left. This should
leave you with a short iron into a green that you must leave yourself
short of the pin. PAR 4.....320 yards.
#15 - Uphill par three that plays a little longer than listed. Ball will
hold if you hit this green, but you can always play the hillside on the
left and hope for a good bounce. You can't go right of this green and
expect to score well on this hole.Green slopes back to front, so I don't
have to tell you about a red pin placement. PAR 3.....210 yards.
#16 - "THE MONSTER"! Voted the toughest hole in Tuscarawas County!
Are you mentally drained yet? Well, here we go. Hit a tee shot that
that you can carry around 200 yards. Play your tee shot up the right side
of the fairway as it slopes to the left. There are lateral hazards if
you go
to far left or right off the tee. Take a mid to long iron up the right
side for you second shot and pray for a good bounce back into the fairway.
This will leave you about 150 yards to an elevated green. This is a true
three shot par five. Make a bogie or better and trust me...you have
conquered the "Monster". PAR 5.....519 yards.
#17 - Now that you finished the toughest hole in the county, sit back
and enjoy the best view in the county. In the distance you can see the
gold
dome of the County Courthouse in downtown New Philadelphia, three mile
away. This is a short hole with an elevation drop of around four
hundred feet. This is a drivable hole. This does require a straight tee
shot as the woods on the left and right have claimed many golf balls.
Take
advantage of this hole. PAR $.....294 yards.
#18 - Naturally we want you to finish on the toughest par four at the
Valley. At 437 yards, a sloping fairway, a creek on the rightside of the
fairway,
a creek separating the fairway and water left of the green. Place your
drive down the leftside of this fairway. This leaves a long iron into
this green
that should be played to the right. Take a chip and a putt for your par
and head to the 19th Hole to go over your round. PAR 4.....437 yards
Remember these are just tips and suggestions and we understand that if
you follow all of these your're probably playing the tour!!!
