Unique, Beautiful, Tricky
The Shattuck Golf Club的点评
点评:Very unique course with a natural layout that winds through carved rocky terrain and around streams, ponds, and wetlands. The course is all about shot placement, decisions, and cheap golf balls.
While the fairways are tight and the greens are small, you get a break on length and you'll only need a driver on a few holes. That being said, 5 is over 600yds from the tips with a postage stamp sized green protected in the front by a stream and cliff face behind it.
The elevation changes and design give you a choice between laying up or being a hero on nearly half the holes which makes best ball rounds with your friends a lot of fun. If you have a huge power fade drive in your bag or can smash a fairway wood you can go for the green on 6 in 2, otherwise it's 3 iron shots to get on in regulation. I also noticed the new owners have been planting fescue on the sides to keep balls in bounds along with some other changes that have made it more playable over the last few years.
If you are looking for a farm course where you can slice it onto the next hole's fairway go elsewhere, but if you want something that showcases the geography of the area and can be a little tricky, this place is a gem. Also, the restaurant is much better than the other local courses.
翻译:非常独特的球场,布局自然,蜿蜒穿过岩石地形,环绕溪流、池塘和湿地。球场的精髓在于击球落点、精准的击球策略和经济实惠的高尔夫球。
虽然球道狭窄,果岭较小,但长度上稍有优势,而且只有几个洞需要一号木。话虽如此,5号洞距离果岭尖端超过600码,果岭前方如同邮票大小,被溪流和悬崖峭壁守护。
高低起伏和设计让您可以在近一半的洞中选择是轻松击球还是成为英雄,这使得与朋友们一起享受精彩的球赛乐趣。如果您的球包里有强大的小右曲球开球,或者可以击球,那么6号洞2杆上果岭是不错的选择,否则需要3杆铁杆才能在标准杆上果岭。我还注意到,新老板在球场两侧种植了羊茅草,以保持球在界内,此外还有一些其他的改变,使得球场在过去几年里更具可打性。
如果你想找一个可以把球切到下一洞球道的农场球场,那就另寻他处吧。但如果你想找一个能展现当地地理特色、略带挑战性的球场,这里绝对是你的不二之选。而且,这里的餐厅也比其他当地球场好得多。
