6
Par: 4
Yards: 344-306-281-247
The shortest par four of the course, #6 is sculpted through the trees and is extremely narrow. There’s trouble everywhere. A bunker on the left side protects the lay up. A stream and deep bunker at the front right side of the green make for a demanding second shot. This hole can be driven by the longest hitters, but not many will make it.
8
Par: 4
Yards: 416-390-354-309
Probably the most breathtaking and scenic hole and one of the favorites. The tee shot plays from at least 100 feet above the fairway to a narrow landing area. On the left of the green is a natural wet-lands and just behind a stand of hardwoods. It’s a very photogenic hole. Take your camera.
9
Par: 5
Yards: 514-480-443-409
Uphill all the way. Trees line the entire left side and a stream runs along the right side. Number nine is a good risk/reward par five. The green is well protected by two deep bunkers in front and to the right. Scores will vary from three to seven and a conservative approach should result in some easy pars or even birdies.
10
Par: 4
Yards: 423-377-321-289
The stream along the left side leads to two ponds which protect the green on the left and behind. Even though the fairway is wide, the tee shot is difficult. The second shot is a short iron to the small green. There’s a bunker both front and back. this is a demanding hole from start to finish.
13
Par: 4
Yards: 437-401-351-320
Number 13 plays along the lake shore. The semi-blind tee shot is over a hill with a blind bunker on the left. There’s no need to cut the corner of the dog-leg to gain a shorter shot. On your second shot, the right side gives you the best angle to the green. The landing area is wide but there are bunkers around the green and to the left. This is a very difficult par four.
14
Par: 5
Yards: 559-538-524-429
#14 plays uphill toward the clubhouse. this is the longest hole at Old Kinderhook, with water along the entire left side. There is plenty of room on the right side of the landing area. Two bunkers protect the second landing area and the small green has additional bunkers left and right. This is a true three shot, par five.
17
Par: 4
Yards: 376-338-315-236
A slight dog-leg to the right with bunkers right and left of the landing area. The second shot plays uphill to a semi-blind green, protected in front by a large and deep bunker. Avoid this bunker at all costs. It appears to be in front of the green, but is actually well short.
18
Par: 5
Yards: 516-476-442-406
The most dramatic, memorable and scenic of the course. Big trees and a lake to the left and a deep bunker on the right side of the landing area. The lake is not a factor in most tee shots but will impact second and third shots. Eighteen presents a wonderful risk/reward challenge. The green is surrounded by water and bunkers that protect the second and third shots. This is a marvelous way to end play.
