Colonial Country Club

Trinity, North Carolina · 18 holes · par 71 · Private. Designed by Gene Hamm, opened 1973.

A caddie's yardage book for every hole: plays-like distance from USGS lidar elevation, reach and carry numbers for every bunker and water hazard, green front, middle and back, which way each green falls, and the lay-up zone on par 5s. Distances are from the back tees along the mapped hole; for a shorter tee, take off the scorecard difference.

In play

  • Bunker right: 284 to reach, 294 to carry
  • Bunker front of the green
  • Bunker back of the green

Playing notes

  • Fairway bunkers on the right: 284 to reach, 294 to carry. Drives that finish short of 284 stay clear; otherwise the left side is the safer line off the tee.
  • The fairway is about 31 yards wide at 240.
  • Bunkers short of the green; take enough club to carry it.
  • Shallow green, 21 yards deep and 31 wide: distance control matters more than line.

In play

  • Bunker left: 270 to reach, 284 to carry
  • Bunker front-right of the green
  • Bunker front-left of the green

Playing notes

  • Hazards on both sides of the fairway from 226 yards; a tee shot that finishes short of 226 keeps them out of play.
  • Hazards guard both sides of the green; aim for the middle.

Hole maps, hazards and playing notes come from mapped course data and USGS 3DEP elevation (public domain), not a visit. Plays-like numbers use the Skitty caddie's rule of one yard per 3 ft of rise, from the longest tee; altitude uses 1.16% of carry per 1,000 ft. Tees, hazards and conditions change; check with the course before you play. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL 1.0) via OpenGolfAPI. Scorecard yardages and ratings as published.
