courses with holes playing over a road

[Joe Bausch]

Manor Golf Club (1928 Alex Findlay design) in Sinking Springs, PA, plays over a public road twice (11 and 15). And you play over the road leading to the clubhouse twice as well (on 16 and 17).


Manor together with nearby Galen Hall makes for a raucous 36 hole day!

I nearly hit a plumbing truck at NGLA the last time I was there.

That road goes across two holes!


I think the 8th and the 11th.


You have to drive over the road on the 8th and I can easily see how you could hit a plumbing or FeDex truck.
On 11, the tee shot comes short of a mound before the road where you now hit a 150 - 170 yard shot (depending on pin position) that is largely blind and the traffic seems less hazardous to all.


I was a bit surprised when I saw this first time.
It's NOT some small country road. Cars are going 40 mph+ and dont seem to care that you are there...
