The greens are in the Camargo-Fishers Island category of great quality contours. Quite simply there is a hell of a lot of cool internal slopes and humps, bumps, interesting tiers, ect. This will not show up the pictures. However, the awesome holes will reveal a level of greatness.
This is the first hole appropriately named Away which features a somewhat reverse redan green. There are a number of diabolical pin positions. It has enough length at 418 to necessitate a good opening tee ball.
This is the Punchbowl which is 483 from the back tee and cannot be lengthened due to a main road. I think for the accomplished player this plays as an awesome par 4.
This is Eden. And this is a pretty substantial hole at 207 yards. The green is almost as severe as the one at Lookout Mountain, but has quite a few interesting subtle humps and bumps. Great bunker depth.
Continuing a challenging start is Long at 485 yards
The 5th is a really great 340 yard Cape. There is a lot of right to left slope in the fairway. A flat lie with a great angle is to be had close to the creek, so there is a risk reward decision to be made on the tee shot.
The 6th is a reverse Redan that is slightly uphill(so this does satisfy one extrremely exacting critic on the overuse of the redan designation!) I think that this is among the best redans that I've played!
The 7th is a cool short hole, 295 from the tips, that is their Alps hole. The green does not go too far behind the protective mound.
This is another very challenging hole that is named Plateau. Though 475 from the tips, it is downhill, a very difficult fairway to hit with serious trouble on the right.
And a tough finish to the front nine at 450 uphill is Dustpan
This is a good view across the course that showing the wonderful terrain. This is the Short green which is hole 11
And for a serious finish, this is Step at 383 yards.
The 16th plays straight up hill, so it was a very long 422. This fairway is far from flat towards the tee--super difficult to keep the ball in the fairway if the there is too much curvature on the tee ball.
And the most famous hole at Fox Chapel, playing 231 yards from the back is Biarritz
The course finishes with Glade Run, a strong par 5 of 574 yards uphill with a double plateau green in which the back plateau requires big time precision to hold. The hole may be a 600 yarder when the pin is set in this area--the green somewhat rivals the 9th at Oakmont in size. The stream is very well utilized as you can see in the picture.
Unfortunately, I ran out of light and did not get an even mediocre quality picture. Hopefully, this treasure of a course will get some more worthy pictures to showcase its greatness!
