143 THE GLENCoE Golf & Country Club PAR 5 566 yARDS Calgary, AB 403.242.4019 www.glencoegolf.org The Glencoe Golf & Country Club is truly a golfer's dream come true—a world-class course that is as beautiful as it is challenging. Designed and built under the exacting hand of master architect Robert Trent Jones Jr., these 45 holes on four unique layouts cover more than 440 acres. The seventh hole of The Slopes course nestles into the sprawling meadows and offers scenic views of two of Glencoe's five nines and of the dramatic 25,000-square-foot clubhouse. With the spectacular Rocky Mountains as a backdrop, this 566-yard hole will challenge you regardless of your skill level. To be successful, strategically drive the ball to the first landing area that is well guarded with large spruce trees to the left and native grasses and penal bunkers to the right. The long hitter can go for the green in two; however, an additional large bunker to the right and a lake to the left leave little room for error. Approach shots are hit into a green that is set above the water and heavily guarded by bunkers front left, back, and right. The green itself is undulating and sure to test your short game as well as your putter. 7 Photograph by J2Marketing
