Description:
With oversized, elevated greens, difficult approach shots are common on this exceptional course. To add to the difficulty level, the wide fairways are well mounded and guarded by a number of bunkers. In fact, you are often forced to make approach shots from awkward lies. Reading these greens can be difficult as well, with many being multi-tiered and relatively quick. |

|
| |
Description:
Keep it straight off the tee as trouble lines these well-manicured fairways. A premium is placed on accuracy as several water hazards and even more bunkers will collect errant shots. While the elevation allows several scenic views of Martha's Vineyard, the unprotected areas often produce shot altering winds. |

|
| |
Description:
This traditional course is set among a number of large trees and protected by an oversized pond. Changes in elevation will lead to tricky approach shots, as many of these greens are on the small side. Higher points on the course have scenic views but also lead to windy conditions that will affect approach shots. |

180 Paine St, Bellingham 02019 • 508-883-2300

|
|
| |
Description:
This Massachusetts course plays longer than the yardage due to the hilly nature of the terrain, and several holes actually cross over into Rhode Island. Narrow fairways demand accuracy off the tee and large greens require careful club selection on approach shots. Overhanging trees, mounded fairways, and undulating greens increase the difficulty level from shot to shot. |

|

Description:
While Mother Nature played a large part, the front nine and back nine appear to be from two different courses. The open front nine is the result of a past hurricane, and the back nine features narrow, tree-lined fairways with rolling hills and small, undulating greens. Finding the line and controlling the speed on these difficult greens will be the key to a good round. |

58 Randall Rd, Stow 01775 • 978-568-1100
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Description:
Winding its way through a thickly wooded pine forest, this course features relatively flat fairways. Longer than most, the difficulty comes from the challenging par-3's and a handful of demanding par-4's. Overhanging trees will deflect off line shots and water hazards present problems on several holes. |
