Black Rock Golf Club: A view and a challenge

By: Paul Easton..




Finding the right golf course to consider your home course is often a matter of finding the one closest to your home and playing on it on a regular basis. However, even the worst golfers will bore of playing the same fairway. However, may find they play better when they hit a different course and the Black Rock golf club is such a course.

About Black Rock Golf Course

With a slope rating of 121 from the white tees and 124 from the blue, the multiple tees at every tee box makes the course challenging and yet fun, for golfers of every skill level.

Each hole

The 18 holes course cuts through the Shenandoah Valley for the front nine. Then through the Appalachian Mountains on the back nine, creating a scenic view of western Maryland. This provide different in areas to play on in the same course.

The Quality Fairways

Each fairway is cut into the landscape and the club offers an amazing practice green. They also boast a complete chipping area and sand trap for more practice. Bent grass of each green offers straight putting chances and will grab a lifted ball onto the green and hold it.

The first hole, a Par 5 of 465 yards, all the way the white tee of the 18th hole at 386 yards, each hole offers a fantastic nature view

All about the Water Hazards

Water hazards come into play on four holes, beginning with number four. It may appear easy but any ball that sails over the green will end up on the bottom of a lake.

Hole number 8 has a small lake around the green. This 396 yard par 4 hole and on hole 13, a double dog leg to the right has water on the left side of the front of the green. This is also guarded by three sand traps.

The final hole is a 386 yard par four with water immediately in front of the green. The second shot will need to sail over the water or lay up and use a wedge to place the ball on the green for a good finish.

The Black Rock Golf Club is a course not for the faint of heart, it is designed to make the player strive for the best and hopefully stay dry in the process. Not a beginners course as the views may be too much of a distraction.
