Par 72
Length 6913 yards
Slope 136
Rating 72.8

Tanglewood, also known as "The Lion," boasts 27 holes of championship golf, divided into the North, South, and West nines. The holes are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The North/West Course starts with the gentlest nine before moving on to the newest and arguably the most challenging nine. The undulating landscape provides a soft bowl-shape to many of the holes that help to keep errant shots in play by corralling them away from the bordering backyards. Water hazards come into play on seven holes on the West nine and the greens are also guarded heavily by pins. The West's third hole is one of the most memorable holes on the golf course. This tricky par 4 gets progressively more challenging as you move from the wide fairways to the steep and intrusive bunkers that lead to the green.

Price

OK COME ON. Are you really charging your in season price when it’s 40 degrees out. Not a chance I’ll take some other course prices below $20. By the way a course who is home to a few universities is below $20.

Rip Off

Workers everywhere on the course by the greens. Had to hit approach shots with them working around the greens. No warning at all that the greens were aerated. Even worse it was only the front nine. The back nine was normal. Caused allot of problems with speed control considering the practice green was normal. Golf is hard enough. It becomes impossible when the green speed is drastically different on each 9.

Solid course.

For 50.00 you can’t beat it.

Little traffic in first 9 - but the back was sailing. Course is in good shape.
