Silver Creek Golf Club Course Guide

Hole 1: par 4

 A straight away par 4 that plays one to two clubs up hill. You will need to play away from the fairway bunker on the right side and be cautious of a steep bunker in front of the green. Green slopes slightly from back to front. Ranks as the #6 handicap hole

Yardage: Silos 372 / Blue 346 / White 320 / Gold 293 / Red 203

 

Hole 2: par 5

Hole #2 is a dogleg right, reachable par 5, with out of bounds on the left and right sides. Must avoid fairway bunkers on the right side off the tee box. Approach shot plays one club downhill to a green that is protected by multiple bunkers. Ranks as the #12 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 510 / Blue 471 / White 438 / Gold 415 / Red 393

 

Hole 3: par 3

Hole #3 is a very deceivingly difficult par 3 that plays multiple clubs down hill. With water on the left and right plus a greenside bunker, a very precise shot is needed. Plays as the #4 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 202 / Blue 184 / White 163 / Gold 139 / Red 112

 

Hole 4: par 4

Hole #4 is a slight dogleg right par 4. This hole gives the chance to lay up to a specific yardage for a second shot that plays slightly uphill. Kidney shaped green has a false front and a front right bunker than guards the green. Ranked as the #14 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 363 / Blue 329 / White 315 / Gold 302 / Red 269

 

Hole 5: par 5

Hole #5 is a difficult, up hill par 5 that doglegs left. Fairway bunkers on right side are in play off the tee box. Big hitters will have a chance to go for this green in two but is a three shot hole for most. Green slopes from back to front and is protected by front greenside bunkers. Ranks as the #8 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 499 / Blue 466 / White 410 / Gold 385 / Red 338

 

Hole 6: par 4

Hole #6 is all about risk-reward. Out of bounds all down the right side and through the fairway. Bunkers on the right side of fairway and around the green. Long hitters have a decision to try and drive the green or lay up to a yardage. Ranks as the #10 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 381 / Blue 343 / White 317 / Gold 277 / Red 235

 

Hole 7: par 4

Hole #7 is all about club selection. A dogleg left par 4 has bunkers that guard the corner of the dogleg. A 200-225 yard layup shot leaves a short to mid iron to a green that plays a half club downhill. Green slopes slightly from back to front. Ranks as the #18 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 372 / Blue 345 / White 333 / Gold 323 / Red 282

 

Hole 8: par 3

Hole #8 is a slight downhill par 3 that plays one club shorter than yardage. Be aware of hazard that surrounds most of the green and a steep bunker front left. Ranks as the #16 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 184 / Blue 155 / White 143 / Gold 109 / Red 71

 

Hole 9: par 4

Hole #9 is a challenging straight away par 4 that slopes severely from right to left off the tee box. Do not go left! Hazard stretches all down the left side. Pretty straight forward approach shot to a green that slopes slight back to front. Ranks as the #2 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 441 / Blue 406 / White 372 / Gold 315 / Red 291

 

Hole 10: par 4

Hole #10 is a straight uphill par 4 with that mirrors hole one. Fairway bunkers on the left side and out of bounds all down the right side. Approach plays one to two clubs up hill to a green surrounded by bunkers. Ranks as the #13 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 356 / Blue 325 / White 284 / Gold 260 / Red 189

 

Hole 11: par 4

Hole #11 is a 90* dogleg left. Tee shot plays significantly downhill. Careful how much dogleg you cut off with out of bounds all down that side. Approach shot to green is guarded with a front right bunker and a creek down the right side. Undulating green. Some pin locations can make this green very interesting. Ranks as the #7 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 424 / Blue 387 / White 347 / Gold 313 / Red 307

 

Hole 12: par 5

Hole #12 is our signature hole. Water on left and right sides make for an almost perfect tee shot. Once in play, longer hitters can possibly go at the green in two. Most will need to lay up. Careful of bunkers left and greenside and of course water, still, left and right. Ranks as the #3 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 532 / Blue 490 / White 446 / Gold 418 / Red 374

 

Hole 13: par 3

Hole #13 is a tough par 3 that plays completely over water. A couple bunkers guard the right side. No room over green. Ranks as the #15 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 167 / Blue 141 / White 145 / Gold 105 / Red 84

 

Hole 14: par 4

Hole #14 is a dogleg left par 4. Trees border left side with a creek also guarding left. Aggressive off the tee box can leave a shorter second shot by taking the chance. Others can lay up in the middle of the fairway leaving a short to mid iron to an elevated green. Left, front bunker in play. Crown through middle of green creates a variety of different results. Ranks as the #11 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 357 / Blue 329 / White 300 / Gold 286 / Red 239

 

Hole 15: par 4

Hole #15 has both a tough tee shot and a tough approach shot. Tee shot requires correct club selection as water down right comes into play at the end of the fairway. Aim for tallest trees down the left center. Approach shot demands precision to a multi-tiered green. Bunkers guard front of green which slopes severely, on three tiers, from back to front. This green will test your putting skills! Ranks as the #5 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 385 / Blue 369 / White 325 / Gold 289 / Red 279

 

Hole 16: par 4

Hole #16 is a straight away par 4. Distance will suffer due to a severe uphill tee shot. Bunkers on right side of fairway will come into play. Out of bounds all down left side. Depending on distance of second shot, approach can play anywhere from one to two clubs longer. Multiple greenside bunkers guard a back to front sloped green. Ranks as the #1 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 363 / Blue 329 / White 315 / Gold 302 / Red 269

 

Hole 17: par 3

Hole #17 is a downhill par 3 with bunkers blocking the right side. Plays one club downhill. Green slopes front to back. Ranks as the #17 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 191 / Blue 163 / White 161 / Gold 130 / Red 98

Hole 18: par 5

Hole #18 is a straight away par 5 that plays as a great finishing hole. Wide fairway separates out of bounds on the right with multiple bunkers on the left. Approach shots are challenging because of length and the slopes of the green. The green itself is 43 yards deep that is blocked by bunkers front right. Suttle slopes and different pin locations makes this a true challenge. From the back tees (Silos), this is a true championship hole. Ranks as the #9 handicap hole.

Yardage: Silos 567 / Blue 530 / White 476 / Gold 440 / Red 406

First time at Silver Creek yesterday. Beautiful facilities, courses, friendly staff, very good food, great views, and just a very fun day. Spent two hours here longer than I initially meant to just because of how much fun we were having.
