Briar Hill Golf Course, CLOSED 2012

Detailed description of Briar Hill Golf Course, CLOSED 2012

Briar Hill Golf Course is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Fremont, Michigan.

Briar Hill Golf Course first opened for play in 1927.

Playing Briar Hill is like playing two courses. The front nine (par 37) opened in 1927. Broad fairways and light rough invite you to use your driver off the tees. The back nine (par 35), more recent, winds through woods. Driving accuracy is a must on the back, making it the more challenging. Strategically placed sand traps on the course leave the green fronts open for opportunities to save par with a great pitch and run.

Par for the course is 72. From the back tees, the course plays to 6,136 yards. From the forward tees, the course measures 4,624 yards. The longest hole on the course is # 6, a par-5 that plays to 556 yards. The shortest hole on the course is # 3, a par-3 that plays to 122 yards from the back tees.

Watch out for # 8, a 384-yard par-4 challenge and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 11, a 333 yard par-4.

The course closed in 2012.
