Hole #1
1245950288Hole1.jpg

Welcome to Harbor Point Golf Club's opening hole, an enticing 5-par, reachable in two by the bombers.

Most players will play down the left of the fairway, but watch out, two bunkers on the right and trees on the left will gobble up an errant shots

This hole is not without risk. The green is protected by two large front bunkers, requiring an accurate short-iron approach. The green is generous and expansive making this the perfect prelude to an enjoyable round of golf.

Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
5 - 475 yd - 465 yd - 450 yd - 445 yd



 


Hole #2

The second hole at harbor point may seem easy by looking at the scorecard. With several strategically placed large trees, a small green surrounded by bunkers, and a narrow fairway getting a par on this hole is always a treat.




Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 335 yd - 314 yd - 293 yd - 282 yd



 


Hole #3

A straight-away par 4 with a bunker obscuring most of the green from view which makes any approach shot scary.

Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 375 yd - 350 yd - 272 yd - 267 yd



 


Hole #4
Hole4.JPG

Hole 4 is a 187yd par 3 from the tips with a green that seems to sit in the middle of a beach due to the 4 bunkers surrounding it. Hitting this postage stamp size green would make even the best of pro's happy



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
3 - 187 yd - 170 yd - 137 yd - 132 yd



 


Hole #5
No.12-Web-Tour.jpg

In a word, "demanding". This 4-par plays tougher than it looks.

A solid tee shot down the middle to middle-right of the fairway leaves a mid to short iron approach uphill to a deceiving back to front sloping green. A three putt on this devil is more common than a two putt.

The green is well protected by a deep bunker on the left and flat bunker to the right, neither are bargains to get up and down from, further emphasizing the importance of the approach. A par on #5 is a precious commodity and a birdie is pretty much a myth.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 386 yd - 346 yd - 285 yd - 280 yd



 


Hole #6
Hole6.JPG

The 6th hole at harbor point was just put in this year. Length on this hole is not a must but a while hit drive might end up on the green. But the smart play is a 200yd shot off the tee to avoid the two bunkers at all costs.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 289 yd - 269 yd - 255 yd - 250 yd



 


Hole #7
Hole7.JPG

With one of the best views of Litter Traverse Bay, this downhill 400yd par 4 has a view that pictures can't do justice to. OB right and a deceiving green that you won't believe make this another hole that par is a great score.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 400 yd - 389 yd - 309 yd - 304 yd



 


Hole #8
Holex8.JPG

A look back down the gorgeous 8th, a relatively open and generous 4-par shows the natural beauty that is reflective of the entire golf course.

Hole 8 should be a hole to get your scorecard back on track before the end on the front 9. Its a short par 4 that if you avoid the one bunker should yield you a great chance at birdie.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 321 yd - 314 yd - 294 yd - 289 yd




 


Hole #9
Hole9x-xCopy.JPG

The finishing hole, an elegant 4-par with tree trouble left and hidden bunkering down the right.

The 9th hole at harbor point is a great finish to the front even though it does not seem to fit the style of the golf course. That and the clubhouse in the background make this a great hole. A hole that if your drive can avoid all the bunkers should give you an easy par.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 338 yd - 331 yd - 315 yd - 310 yd




 


Front 9


Out - Blue - White - Gold - Red
36 - 3106 yd - 2948 yd - 2604 yd - 2559 yd




 

 


Hole #10
Hole10x-xCopyxx2x.jpg

A beautiful 5-par overlooking picturesque Little Traverse Bay to the left.

A traditional three shot hole, #10 offers long hitters an eagle opportunity with two well-placed shots, but beware of the fairway bunker to theright as it is reachable by most.

For the average player a short-iron approach must be well struck to this narrow green. Well placed bunkering eagerly gobbles up any wayward shots, placing a premium on accuracy.



Par-Blue-White-Gold-Red
5-475 yd-460 yd-429 yd-424 yd






Hole #11
Holex11.JPG

On this par 3 you may need to bring an extra club because it plays more uphill than you can see. A miss to the right or short is key but anything left will probably leave you with no chance for par. The green slopes from back to front and from left to right.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
3 - 185 yd - 173 yd - 131 yd - 126 yd



 


Hole #12
Holex12.JPG

The 12 hole is the longest at Harbor Point, and it plays even longer due to it going up hill. It is about 220 yds to carry the bunker on the right. The green is much larger than it looks from the fairway and this makes the approach much easier.




Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
5 - 475 yd - 460 yd - 429 yd - 424 yd



 


Hole #13
Holex13.JPG

At 206yds this is the longest par 3 at Harbor Point. To make this hole even more difficult this is one of the Smallest greens on the course. If you miss the green to want to make it miss right and you could get a back onto the putting surface.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
3 - 206 yd - 199 yd - 143 yd - 138 yd



 


Hole #14
Holex14.JPG

After a short walk across the road you come to the 14th hole. Anything right on this par 5 will be just fine. Because this hole plays uphill it is best to play it as a three shot hole. The green complex here slopes more toward the front than you might expect.



Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
5 - 480 yd - 456 yd - 388 yd - 383 yd



 


Hole #15
Holex15.JPG
A short par three that plays about 130 yds from the tips even though it is downhill. If you can avoid OB left you should give your self a great chance at birdie and get you round back on track for the finish.


Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
3 - 132 yd - 130 yd - 105 yd - 100 yd



 


Hole #16
Holex16.JPG
An easier par 4 that calls for a mini slice off the tee due to tree branches on the right of the tee box. A good drive should leave a short iron or wedge to a larger green with a bunker on the right. This is one of the few greens that does not slope toward the water.


Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 370 yd - 362 yd - 311 yd - 306 yd



 


Hole #17
Holex17.JPG
The 17th hole plays much like the 15th but a little bit easier due to no OB and a larger green.
Over the green is the worse than the front bunkers and it gives very little chance at saving par so always miss short


Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
3 - 130 yd - 125 yd - 105 yd - 100 yd



 


Hole #18
Holex18.JPG
Last hole on the course and it comes with a great view its self. For most players the bunkers on the left will not come into play and the water on the right factors in for the second shot. Avoid the three bunkers around the green and make a strong finish to a great round.

Par - Blue - White - Gold - Red
4 - 390 yd - 366 yd - 315 yd - 310 yd
