TCC - Golf Course Hole #1

Hole #1

Par 5: Slight dogleg left across a small stream. Uphill 2nd shot with green sloping from back to front. Guarded on left and right with bunkers.

Pro Tip

Use caution as a creek crosses the fairway at 260 yards.  Laying up is ok to start your round, let your short game do the work, but stay below the hole.
TCC - Golf Course Hole #2

Hole #2

Par 4: Downhill tee shot on a straightaway hole with a stream crossing the fairway. Long narrow green with a bunker on the left and a small stream on the right.

Pro Tip

Big hitters can take advantage of their length, favoring the right side of the fairway leaving themselves a mid/short iron into this green.

TCC - Hole #3

Hole #3

Par 3: Pretty little hole across a stream to a green sloping from back to front with a bunker guarding the left and a bunker and two large trees guarding the right.

Pro Tip

Middle of the green off the tee is perfection.  Avoid long.
TCC - Hole #4

Hole #4

Par 4: Straightaway with the fairway sloping slightly from left to right and a fairway bunker on the right side. The green has bunkers on the left, right and back.

Pro Tip

What you see is what you get on this hole.  Straight forward but avoid going long on your approach into the green.
TCC - Golf Course Hole #5

Hole #5

Par 5: Dogleg left with a stream on the left for the tee shot. The stream crosses the fairway midway.  The approach is slightly uphill to a green guarded on both sides with bunkers, and sloping left to right.

Pro Tip

A tee shot right-center will give you the best view into the green.  Take extra club on your second shot to ensure you reach the green.
TCC - Course Hole #6

Hole #6

Par 4: Straight hole with a pond on the ride side. The small two-tiered green has bunkers on the left and in front.

This unique hole features 2 greens.  A left-center tee shot is ideal.  If you’re playing #6 use the green in front of you, if your playing #15 stay right.
TCC - Golf Course Hole#7

Hole #7

Par 4: An uphill tee shot on this straightaway hole rated the hardest. The approach is to a large elevated green sloping from back to front.

Pro Tip

Finding the fairway and long is crucial  on this long par 4.  Extra club on your approach is a must especially if the wind is up.
Tryon Country Club - Golf Course Hole #8

Tryon Country Club Hole#9

Hole #9

Par 4: Long straight hole with fairway sloping left to right. The approach is to a narrow green guarded on the right by a large poplar tree.
