Yardage Book

Before you start your next round of golf, take a moment to look through this yardage book. Pay attention to the hazards, playing tips, and basic yardage information to help yourself get a feel for the course. When you go to play each hole, review the playing tip for helpful hints. Look for landmarks like bunkers or curves in the fairway to align your shots with reference that carry yardages measurements as a tool to help you decide which clubs will be best to use. As you play the hole, you can make notes on the pages of this book for yourself. Next time you come to play our course, you will have a personalized guide to playing your best!

Yardage are measured to the center of the green.

125 barber pole = 125 yards to the center of the green

Out of bounds are defined by the back of curbing along entrance road, all fences, and all parking lots.

A demanding driving hole awaits the golfer who steps onto the first tee at Prairie Landing. A gambling drive to the right fairway, safely negotiating a meandering stream and two bunkers, may possibly reach the green. However, if the wind is up, a smart play to the sloping left fairway will leave a shot iron to a relatively large green sets the tone for the shot options and strategy which are an integral part of our design philosophy.

This straight-away hole features an elevated fairway, guarded with bunkers and meandering stream and rises more than it appears to a green set perpendicular to the line of play. The receptive contours of the green will accept a properly struck iron, which allowing bump and run shots to enter the green from the right. If the wind blows, this hole can be a monster.

The first of five par 3’s can be challenged at a variety of lengths. The target, nestled amongst fescue-covered mounds, pitches slightly from left to right and rises toward the back. Don’t be fooled by the deep marshy hole in front of the greenside bunker. Trust the card.

This hole is representative of the spacious fairways you will see for much of the remainder of the course. From the tee, aim to either side of the central bunkers. The left side is higher, with a much better view of the hole. The remaining shots should be positioned left of the green to safely negotiate an inlet of the stream. The green is designed to allow for bold play and will readily accept approach shots. The green complex is surrounded by bunkers, swales, and hollows, yet all the pin positions can be easily accessed.
A vintage golf course map for Hole 4, a Par 5. It shows the fairway, green, multiple tee boxes, sand bunkers with carry distances, and a water hazard. An inset details the green, and the hole's yardages are listed at the bottom.

An intimidating par 4 offers conservative play to the right portion of the fairway, where the receptive landing area will serve to gather tee shots. The next shot must carry water, wetland vegetation, and the greenside bunker to the narrow portion of the green. A successful drive to the left fairway, guarded by a carry bunker, will reap great rewards, as the drive could roll to within 70 yards of the open entry to the green. One of the smallest putting surfaces on the course allows no gimmies. Par is well-earned here.

Map of golf course hole 5, a Par 4, showing a long blue water hazard along the left side of the green fairway, multiple tee boxes, and the green at the top. Includes yardage and carry hazard details.
Patterned after short holes in Scotland and Ireland, this flexible par 3 contains three different tees each with distinctive lines of play (East, Center, West). Set amongst a series of “dunes and hummocks” the tee shot must carry a steep false front. The green, perhaps the most sloping on the course, will feed a rolling shot that enters from the left towards the center of the putting surface. Even the most skilled putters will find this green to be challenging.
Illustrated golf course map for Hole 6, a Par 3. Shows the green with three pin positions (A, B, C), multiple tee boxes (East, West, Center, Red), and detailed yardage tables for each tee to various points on the green. The map also indicates cart paths and different terrain types.

Playing into prevailing wind, this hole is the longest. A slight dogleg right, guarded on the entire left side by a marshy stream twelve to eighteen feet below, this roller coaster fairway is very generous. The green sits on a perch, high above the stream. Swales and sweeps in the putting surface requires a good read prior to putting.

A golf course map for Hole 7, a Par 5. It shows a long, narrow fairway with a blue water hazard on the left, several white bunkers, and an inset of the green. Distances for carry bunkers and tee box yardages (from 410 to 598) are clearly marked.

Elevated tees create an attractive vantage point to plan the tee shot. A driver may not be the choice here. Target the bunker beyond the center of the fairway. The temptation to shorten the distance of this hole should be resisted. Play left of the right-side bunker leaving a full short iron to the intricately contoured green.

A golf course hole map for Hole 8, a Par 4. It shows a green fairway with multiple sand bunkers, a blue water hazard on the right, and various tee box yardages. A magnified view of the green is also included.

A strong finish to the front nine, the slight dogleg left, requires accuracy from tee to green. Guarded by fescue covered mounds, large bunkering and a lake, the ball should be positioned on the left-hand side of the fairway. A long, narrow green awaits low trajectory shots that can run up into various hole locations. Large mounds, the clubhouse, and the lake guarding both the ninth and eighteenth greens, provide a dramatic backdrop to this pivotal hole.

The first of the three par 5’s on the back side, the tenth requires shots often regarded as the toughest in golf: straight, straight, and straight again. Although the fairway is enormous in width, the slopes and bowl-like features will make correct positioning in the fairway important. Trees, bunkers and fescue-covered mounds frame the tee shot. The meandering stream lurks nearby to the left. The multilevel putting surface can create havoc with most putts. Look backwards on this hole from the green and you will wonder why any trouble can be found.

A detailed golf course map for Hole 10, a Par 5. It displays the long, narrow fairway, green with a flagstick, five colored tee boxes with yardages from 440 to 550 yards, and multiple sand bunkers labeled 'Carry Bunker' with associated distance lists. A magnified view of the green is also included.

A fitness hole all the way plays around a wetland that bisects the fairway and defines the right side. A tree mass and bunkers define the required tee shot. The putting surface is tightly guarded by sand left and water right. The second shot must carry across the wetlands where the green is receptive and its contours steer shots away from the hazards.

A golf course hole map for Hole 11, a Par 4. It shows the fairway, green, multiple bunkers, and a water hazard, with yardage and carry bunker distances indicated.

Placed amidst a tranquil setting of a reflecting lake, natural rock well and an amphitheater of trees, this hole may be a beast, rather than a beauty. The tee shot requires a carry over water to the green that is deceptively detached from the rock wall. The putting surface folds gently with the fairway entering left, front, and right. Par will be a good score here.

Map of golf course Hole 12, a Par 3, showing a large crescent-shaped water hazard, green with a bunker, and multiple tee boxes with yardage details.

A wetland and tree mass left of the fairway, coupled with strong mounding and bunker on the right, set up the requirements for the most demanding tee shot on the course. The marshy vegetation runs the left side, while the diagonal stream cuts off the fairway just beyond the second landing area. Carry the stream and the cluster of bunkers and a possible eagle could be your reward. Lay up a longer iron to a green that sweeps right to left.

The menacing wetland continues on the left side of this picturesque hole. Strategically positioned bunkers on the right await shots off the mark to the right. The putting surface is slightly elevated from the fairway entry and collects shots to the back right. The shortest of the par 3 holes should yield some birdies.

Map of golf course hole 14, a Par 3, showing an elongated green layout with two prominent white bunkers, multiple tee boxes, and carry distances. An inset magnifies the green with a flagstick and a 0-48 scale.

The prairie grasses and fescue-covered mounds border this generous fairway. Play right of the fairway bunkers on the left for the best angle to a rather large green. The fairway tilts and turns as it approaches the bunker guarding the right holes locations. A bump and run approach to the left portion of the green is a good play.

The longest par 4 on the course is without a bunker. The huge valley landing area collects balls to the center. The fairway narrows as it approaches the sloping green hunkered down from the wind amongst boldly contoured mounds and fescue areas. Two well struck, low trajectory shots are the correct play. The green is guarded with mounds left, while the fairway bleeds into all portions of the green.

The longest short hole at Prairie Landing plays to the largest green on a plateau with deep bunkering and fescue covered slopes. The putting surface rocks and rolls, with many hole locations. Carry the ball to the hole location or read the approach contours to roll the ball close. Par will be good enough to win most wagers here.

A golf course map for Hole 17, a Par 3, showing a long, green fairway leading to a green flanked by two white bunkers. Tee box yardages and handicap information are also displayed.

The home hole is a longish par 5 with options galore. A string of three bunkers are in the middle of the rambling fairway. The gamblers will hit left of the bunkers leaving a 235 yard carry over water for a potential eagle. A more conservative route is to play right of the central bunkers, then to the fairway right of the lake. A short iron shot remains to the green nestled amongst mounds. The fairway tips away from the water near the green as the putting surface, protected by the facing bunker, rises to a bowl on the back right.
