Front Nine Hole #1
Par 5, Yardage: Red 384, White 422, Blue 456

Par 5. Your tee shot should favor the right side of the fairway. This green is reachable in two but beware of the hazards that lurk around the green. There are two bunkers, one left and one right and water comes into play all around the green except for the front section. The 100-yard marker is just past the service road and is probably the smart play to lay up to.
Hole #2

Par 4, Yardage: Red 265, White 303, Blue 327

This short par 4 is a good birdie chance. Your tee shot should be aimed at the large sand trap on the right. Hidden from view by the mounds is water on the left side. The green slopes back right to front left.
Hole #3

Par 3, Yardage: Red 134, White 182, Blue 207

Select the club that will get you passed the bunker that is 20 yards short of the green and favor the right side as everything will bounce left. The green is sloped back right to front left.
Hole #4

Par 4, Yardage: Red 272, White 329, Blue 354

Straight away par 4 with two sand traps framing the landing area. If you over shoot the right bunker you will find water. The green is fairly flat with a small mound on the left side.
Hole #5

Par 3, Yardage: Red 160, White 202, Blue 228

Difficult par 3 due to the green sloping away from you. A little long will not hurt you especially if the pin is red.
Hole #6

Par 4, Yardage: Red 300, White 343, Blue 386

Straight away par 4. A right center tee shot is what you want. Water around the previous tee can get you if you over shoot the left mounds. The tendency for the approach shot is to bounce to the left, keep your approach shot a bit to the right.
Hole #7

Par 5, Yardage: Red 416, White 504, Blue 542

The first of two consecutive par 5's. The hole plays shorter than the yardage indicates due to the downhill approach. First, your tee shot landing area is between the two fairway traps. Out of bounds all the way on the left side. A bunker guards the front left side of the green and the slope will send your ball to the right. Don't trust what you see on the green, it slopes front to back, trust me.
Hole #8

Par 5, Yardage: Red 433, White 479, Blue 506

This par 5 also has out of bounds on the left. The newly expanded pond on the right awaits errant tee shots. The hole is also downhill and is reachable with two good shots. This is probably the flattest green at Maplewood and will often reward good putters with a birdie.
Hole #9

Par 3, Yardage: Red 122, White 135, Blue 172

Club selection is important. The prevailing wind is generally at your back. The green slopes top left to front right and your tee shot could also end up on the right side.


Back Nine Hole #10

Par 4, Yardage: Red 339, White 354, Blue 388

Tee shot should be aimed towards the Fir tree on the left. Avoid the right fescue at all cost. The green has 3 distinct areas and to get close to the pin will need an accurate approach. 3 putts here are common.
Hole #11

Par 3, Yardage: Red 122, White 140, Blue 149

Demanding par 3 guarded in front by a deep bunker and in the back by a lake. If the flag is behind the trap, it is safest to play to the visible portion of the green.
Hole #12

Par 4, Yardage: Red 341, White 346, Blue 375

Intimidating tee shot especially from the blue tees. Out of bounds lurk on the left side. Usually played into the prevailing wind. You might want to select one more club into the green. This green that slopes from back to front and up and down from off the green is tricky.
Hole #13

Par 4, Yardage: Red 235, White 250, Blue 289

Short par 4. Reachable with an accurate tee shot but there is Out of Bounds on the left and the trees on the right see a lot of action. A bunker guards the front of the green which is sloped back to front. A mid iron off the tee will leave you with a wedge in for a birdie chance.
Hole #14

Par 4, Yardage: Red 310, White 391, Blue 405

Very difficult dog leg par 4.Your tee shot is into the wind most of the time. A large pond will swallow any balls aimed too far right. Aim straight for the left 150 yard marker. The mound in the fairway is around the 100 yard mark. Most approach shots tend to drift right. The green is sloped severely back to front. Stay below the pin. Par is a very good score here.
Hole #15

Par 5, Yardage: Red 416, White 459, Blue 499

Downwind, downhill double dog leg par 5. Tee shot should be aimed just right of the fairway bunker. This green is tempting to go for in two but beware of the tall trees to negotiate and creek crossing in front of the green. The green is elevated in the middle and paying attention to the pin placement is the key. The safest shot in is from the 100 yard marker located near the big tree on the left of the fairway. Good birdie chance.
Hole #16

Par 3, Yardage: Red 93, White 156, Blue 168

Straight forward par 3 with water in front and a sand trap back right. The green is slopped back to front and usually very fast. Birdie chance if you can hit the green.
Hole #17

Par 4, Yardage: Red 238, White 267, Blue 274

Short par 4, dog leg left. It is tempting but ill advised to try to go for the green from the tee. The perfect tee shot should be aimed for the white birch with a slight draw for right handed players. The approach will then be a short iron over the lake to a green that slopes towards the water.
Hole #18

Par 5, Yardage: Red 422, White 548, Blue 565

You can now see the club house and that should be your target off the tee. This long par 5 is accessible with 3 well placed shots. Your second shot should be aimed to the right side of the fairway and make sure to clear the creek. The 200 yard marker is the second bridge you see. It is very important to calculate where the pin is on the biggest green on the course. There is a 3 club difference from front to back. The green is also protected by sand traps front left and middle right.
