Deer Creek South - Emerald - Hole #1

Par 4
HCP 3

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 387
White Tee Deck - 377

Tip from the Pro:
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.

Par 3
HCP 2

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 180
White Tee Deck - 156
Red Tee Deck - 137

Tip from the Pro:
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.

HCP 7

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 336
White Tee Deck - 306

Tip from the Pro:
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.

HCP 1

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 545
White Tee Deck - 527

Tip from the Pro:
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.

Par 5
HCP 6

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 493
White Tee Deck - 470
Red Tee Deck - 407

Tip from the Pro:
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.

Par 4
HCP 4

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 367
White Tee Deck - 367
Red Tee Deck - 340

Tip from the Pro:
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.

Deer Creek South - Emerald - Hole #8

Par 3
HCP 5

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 169
White Tee Deck - 148
Red Tee Deck - 148

Tip from the Pro:
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.

Deer Creek South - Emerald - Hole #9

Par 4
HCP 9

Yardages from:
Blue Tee Deck - 286
White Tee Deck - 266
Red Tee Deck - 226

Tip from the Pro:
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.
