Hole 1
A great warm up hole. Even though it is a short Par 4, a good tee shot is required. This leaves you with a short iron shot to
a deep green. Green Contour/Slope:
slopes back to front.

Hole 2 A short Par 4
that’s easy on the scorecard. A well placed lay-up is not a bad idea, because
of a large green that is hard to stick. Pro Advice: The large green is
hard to stick without a full shot.

Hole 3
Okay, let’s get that driver
loose! Be very aware of the water to the right that follows almost the entire
length of the fairway. A good second shot can leave you with a great Birdie chance,
but playing it safe guarantees a Par. The green is very wide, but very narrow
from front to back. Pro Advice: When it comes to the green’s pronounced
back to front slope, keeping the ball below the hole is key. Green
Contour/Slope: pronounced back to front.

Hole 4 A textbook lay-up
Par 4. Be aware that a pond 225 yards off the tee will eat a lot of bold shots. Pro Advice: Playing it safe is the best chance for a good score.

Hole 5 Welcome to hell. This Par 3 is one of the hardest shots on the Bigwood.
Pro Advice: Just try to hit the middle of the green— in general, a Par is a great score.

Hole 6 A long Par 4,
known for creating a lot of problems off the tee. Although an intimidating hole,
sporting a creek to the right and bunkers to the left, a large green awaits. Hitting
in with a middle to short iron is usually easiest; however, for bolder hitters, a third shot to the green from here is an
option. Pro Advice: This is a large green that’s easy to hit, just
don’t go right or long.

Hole 7 Been bragging
about your scorecard? Welcome to hole 7, a great Par 5. Longer hitters can get into trouble here, with the out-of-bounds to the left and the large bunker dominating
the center. Under way, you will notice that the fairway gets very narrow down
the neck; beyond, it opens up all the way to the green. This long “second
chance” presents Birdie, even Eagle, possibilities. Pro Advice: Be careful of un-even lies. You could
blast your little monogrammed Titleist right off the course.

Hole 8 An exciting Par
3 with a commanding view over the hole. The tiered, elevated tee affords the
player a great view of the green and the troubles surrounding it. Initially deceiving,
the green is very large once your ball gets there.

Hole 9 Okay, who’s
buying lunch? Hole 9 is by far the most challenging hole at the Bigwood. A long Par 4 protected by a pond that follows the entire left side short of the green. Pro Advice: Be careful—short or long shots leave a deep second shot that
imposes an impossible chip or putt downhill back towards the pond.
