A picturesque beginning to get you acquainted with the beauty of Sugarloaf. This par 4 is nestled into the pines. A well-placed
drive will allow for an easy approach to the green. Don't be right off the tee box or you will have to contend with the stately
group of pines on your approach shot. View flyover. |
| 2 | 3 | 144 |
The shortest par three on the golf course. The green is protected by a deep bunker in the front right and severe slopes along
the rear of the green. Accuracy is a must with the tee shot. View flyover |
| 3 | 4 | 389 |
A short par four with a large landing area. A well placed three wood off the tee will put you into position for a short approach
shot onto the green, which is guarded by a creek running along the entire front edge. View flyover |

The 541-yard par 5 was lengthened an additional 17 yards by the addition of a new Tee Box and is now 558 yards. The original
design incorporated a large Sycamore tree splitting the fairway with fairway bunkers guarding the right side of the fairway.
The sycamore tree has been removed, the fairway bunkers have been enlarged, and an additional fairway bunker was added. All
of the fairway bunkers were recontoured and repositioned to the right of the fairway. Additional clearing was done along the
left side of the fairway. Old Peachtree Creek along the left side of the fairway is now in play and is a significant hazard
reachable off the tee. Long drives must be shaped from right to left to reach the green in two. View flyover. |
| 5 | 4 | 418 |
Tee to green, the 418, par 4, was not redesigned. But after talking with other TOUR Players, the greenside pond, stream and
green complex approach area was modified. The green complex was reshaped to include a grass shelf fronting the green. Previously,
golf shots that spun back off the green went into the pond, now, the shots are collected in the grass shelf approach area.
The pond fronting the green was narrowed to allow the player the opportunity to create a recovery shot, if short of the green.

An uphill drive is the first of many challenges awaiting on hole six. A well-placed drive sets up a crucial approach shot
to the elevated green surrounded by well placed bunkers. Reaching the green in two will be a rarity due to its length and
placement. View flyover. |
| 7 | 4 | 458 |
The most picturesque hole on the course. A lengthy drive will enable anywhere between a four to six iron approach shot into
the swirling green site that is not protected by a single bunker. View flyover. |
| 8 | 3 | 248 |
Do not be afraid to hit a 3-wood into this green. The green is pitched into two distinct directions so that the shot which
is demanded will nestle softly on to the large green floor. View flyover. |
| 9 | 4 | 465 |
This is the toughest driving hole at Sugarloaf, requiring a straight beginning. An approach shot with a five to six iron will
be the play into this green tucked against the creek along the right side. View flyover. |
| 10 | 5 | 608 |
Don't let the length fool you. A well-placed tee shot in the bunker laden fairway will give you an opportunity to reach this
downhill par 5 in two shots. View

| 11 | 3 | 189 |
Bring your long irons in making the carry to the peninsula green site. The green is shaped so there is ample area to land
the ball on the fly to a tucked pin position on the far left side. This is Sugarloaf's most treacherous par three. There is
water surrounding the peninsula green and a bunker guarding the back left. Back left pin placements are the toughest. A 3-
to 5-iron tee shot for most players. View

Two new features were added to the 389 yard,dogleg left par 4. A expanded tee box and a new fairway pot bunker. The Professional
tee was lengthened 15 yards and now plays 405 yards from the back tee. A new strategically located fairway pot bunker was
positioned along the right side of the fairway visually appearing as if in the center of the fairway. Visually deceptive,
a drive that drifts to the right is in danger of landing in the new fairway bunker. Reaching the green in two from the pot
bunker will become a challenge. View

| 13 | 4 | 310 |
A driveable par four with a deep-faced bunker adjacent to the green on the left side. The green slopes away creating a difficult
short approach for players who lay up. View flyover. |
| 14 | 4 | 453 |
Distance is the key on this long par four. A long drive will put you in place for a three to five iron shot into a green nestled
into the existing terrain. Don't be short! View flyover. |
| 15 | 4 | 406 |
A three wood is the desired club into this narrow landing area. The second shot will require an eight iron to wedge for most
players. This green's surrounding area is a great vantage for spectators. View flyover. |
| 16 | 3 | 179 |
Judgment of length of the shot is crucial on this par three. A well placed bunker covers a vast majority of the approach area.
The green is a narrow, elongated surface with slight pitch from front to back. View flyover. |
| 17 | 4 | 455 |
Now the fun begins with a well placed drive between the two bunkers. The second shot will require a 7 iron through wedge to
a slightly downhill green location with a large bunker surrounding the left side of the green. View flyover. |
| 18 | 5 | 576 |
Don't be leading by just one coming into this dramatic finishing hole. The choice will be yours with a well placed drive into
the lower half of the two-level fairway. A drive landing in lower area will have a 3-wood to 2-iron over water to have a chance
for an eagle. View flyover. |
