MAKRAY MEMORIAL GOLF CLUB COURSE OVERVIEW
HOLE ONE PAR 4
The first hole starts from a spectacular elevated teeing area. The tee shot
must fit between two large trees to an uphill, wide fairway. The second
shot is uphill to a large double-green with an intimidating greenside
bunker to the right. Playing this par 4 into the prevailing wind and uphill
makes it a great starting hole. ISJA Day 1:

HOLE TWO PAR 4
The second hole is a downhill par 4 sweeping dogleg to the left through a
grove of mature oak trees. A small creek and a bunker to the right guard
the green. Playing downhill and into the prevailing wind is a trade-off on
this hole. ISJA Day 1:

HOLE THREE PAR 4
This Par 4 is located at the west boundary of the course. Tee shots are
from a high bank over a wetland area that extends the entire length of
the hole. The approach shot is over a creek to a small green tucked into
oak trees with bunkers both right and left. A short hole, but accuracy is
needed. ISJA Day 1:

HOLE FOUR PAR 3
The Par 3 fourth can be considered the course’s signature hole because
of its view. This hole plays downhill to a narrow lengthy green. A pond
parallels the green to the right and oak trees frame the green on the left. ISJA Day 1:
