Harbor Pines Golf Club/2012 VB Golf Crew Golf Trip


Five sets of tees...
enable golfers to enjoy the course at their own level of challenge -- from 5099 yards to 6827 yards. 

Tee areas are unusually large...
offering the opportunity for varied tee positions that lengthen or shorten the hole and provide different playing angles. In addition, the large tees on all par 3's prevent excessive wear in any one area and provide the golfer consistent quality conditions.


12 ponds -- 17 acres of water...
strategically located to add a picturesque charm and a challenge for every golfer. Only two ponds require a carry shot -- most run laterally along the fairways to heighten the challenge and the beauty of the course without unfairly testing the average golfer. 


Each hole undisturbed...
Harbor Pines is a parkland-style course that winds around the perimeter of a 520-acre heavily-wooded site providing undisturbed enjoyment of each hole. Only the 1st, 9th and 18th holes provide parallel play as they intersect at the clubhouse.



Outstanding Course Conditions...
Harbor Pines features generous fairways and short rough reminiscent of Augusta National. The finest irrigation system and course management program that exists in golf today is at Harbor Pines. Wall-to-wall triple row sprinklers create conditions that rank with the most prestigious courses in the world. 


Large undulating greens...
offer opportunities for varied pin placements that add interest and new challenge to every round. The average green size is in excess of 6500 square feet. 



Distinctive Memorable Bunkers...
from the massive 170' - long half-acre bunker that guards the par-4 17th hole to "Sand Creek," the long ribbon-like bunker you cross by bridge as you approach the par-5 7th. 

                 
The course is extremely well-marked for yardage...
to speed play. With your cooperation, rounds should take no more than 4:15. Color-coded stakes along each fairway and fairway disks are placed at 200, 150 and 100 yards from each green. In addition, over 800 sprinkler heads are yardage-marked to assist you in your shot selection.
 


You can visually read each hole...
The course is designed to enable the golfer to visually read each hole -- to clearly see the next shot in order to assess the consequences of risk and rewards for the well-played shot. Landing areas are clearly visible from the tees and most greens are angled to face the golfer -- minimizing blind shots and enabling the golfer to analyze and plan each shot.
