Detailed description of Glenross Golf Club
Glenross Golf Club, is a Public, 18 hole golf course located in Delaware, Ohio.
Glenross Golf Club, formerly Tanglewood Golf Course, first opened for play in 1968. Tanglewood was designed by Jack Kidwell. The course was rennovated and reopened in 2006 as Glenross Golf Club. The rennovation was done by Kinney Golf Course Design.
Today, Glenross is a blend of both old and new. The renovation of the course was extensive, but its identity was retained. The large majestic oak trees that defined many fairways take on the same importance by bordering the fairways of the new Glenross course. and much of the golf course layout will be recognizable to previous patrons. However, five new holes have been added to strengthen the layout. As in the past, play continues to occur both north and south of Cheshire Road in Delaware, Ohio, but a new tunnel now leads players from the front nine to the back nine.
Glenross's 6,550-yard, par-70 golf course features four sets of tees on each hole. Renovation occured from tee through green on each of the existing 13 holes and five holes have completely new layout and design. The course boasts rolling fairways, undulating greens, fifty new sand bunkers, seven ponds and a natural creek. Acres of wetlands, natural grass areas and hundreds of trees have been added to further challenge golfers and enhance the overall playing experience.

I play this course at least twice a year and I am never disappointed. The conditions were better than normal this time since it was very dry.

Had a extra 2hrs so I decided to stop at this 1968 Jack Kidwell design that was Rennovated in 2006 and has matured very nicely for a quick nine (9) holes. The bentgrass course was very wet and cart path only so my ratings are based a little lower than prime conditions. I choose to play the Blue tees 3,393/3,214yds / 68.9 / 122 on this Par 35/35 layout because of the wet conditions. One thing I didn't like was that the rates are "Flexible" according to the starter and the $35 9/cart path only, on the wet conditions. The #2 Par 4 at 400yds has two (2) large trees framing the fairway 180yds out leading straightaway to a elevated green with RH sandtraps on this Hcp 3 hole. This #3 Par 3 at 191-147yds has a elevated and narrow green with a front trap plays tougher than its Hcp 15. The #4 Par 5 is a 545yds narrow view with a creek crossing on that 2nd shot to a elevated narrow on this Hcp 1 hole. The #7 Par 4 at 423yds starts out with a 180yd carry to the meandering fairway that leads to another elevated green without traps. The #9 Par 4 plays longer than its uphill 395yds with water on the RH side right up to the green. I can tell that this would be a better course if the conditions were drier and the white sandtraps were fluffed up a little. I'd like to come back and play the Back 9 but check the price BEFORE setting up the tee time. Ended up shooting 39 w/15putts as the greens were holding good and rolling 5-6.
