Hole 1

This challenging starting point requires skill and precision, as bunkers stand guard on either side of the fairway. Only a perfectly placed tee shot will give you the advantage needed to take on the green with your second shot. Your approach requires an extra club to vanquish the false front, but be wary of going long, as the green is steeply sloped from back to front.

Hole 2

The 2nd is a dogleg left par five that plays gracefully back to our clubhouse. As you approach the tee box, take note of the tree line on the left that is the ideal line to aim for. But beware, only the longest hitters will have the opportunity to go for this well protected green in two. A tee shot towards the right side of the fairway may run through and be blocked out by two large Evergreens. Most players opt for the three-shot approach, making sure to keep their second shot between the fairway bunkers on both sides of the fairway.

Hole 3

As you drive down Brae Burn Drive towards the Club, you catch a glimpse of the 3rd hole and start to mentally prepare for the upcoming challenge. This downhill par four presents a sharp bend to the right that demands strategic tee shot placement. For the average player, it's best to aim for the left side of the fairway which will give you the optimal angle into the green. If you stray too far to the right and don't make it past the corner, you'll be blocked by some imposing trees. Approaching the green, you'll have to navigate the hazards that await. A pond sits menacingly on the left, while a bunker on the right threatens to swallow any shots that miss their mark.

The 4th hole is a picturesque, bunkered short par four that will require precision off the tee. Players have a range of clubs at their disposal for their tee shot. For your second, you will be faced with a short approach to an elevated, two-tiered green that is well-guarded by bunkers. Careful consideration of both the tee shot and the approach is essential on this hole, making it a challenging but rewarding addition to any round of golf.

Hole 5

The 5th hole at Brae Burn is widely regarded as the signature hole, and it's easy to see why. This stunning par three requires a mid to short iron shot that must carry over water to reach a well-protected green that is surrounded by bunkers and water hazards. An array of tee boxes built on the remnants of the New York, Westchester, and Boston Railway provide players with a new optic to the hole every time played. Missing the green, regardless of the angle, will leave you with a tough up and down for even the most skilled short game players.

Hole 6

The 6th hole is a challenging dogleg right par 4. To the right, large trees and a creek guard the way, while to the left, water and out-of-bounds loom ominously. Once you've successfully navigated the tee shot, you'll face an uphill second shot to a two-tiered green that plays at least a half club longer than you might expect. Getting on the correct tier of the green is essential if you want to avoid the possibility of a three-putt. To make matters more challenging, there are three small bunkers located on the back of the green that must be avoided at all costs.

Hole 7

The 7th hole is a true test of skill and a favorite among seasoned golfers. This long par four is the number one handicap hole. The fairway offers some room off the tee, but players must be wary of the out of bounds on the left and the creek and large fairway bunker on the right. The green boasts a variety of challenging pin positions, so accuracy and precision are paramount. It's worth noting that this hole plays a club longer than the measured distance due to the upslope, so players must be mindful.

Hole 9

Being Brae Burn’s shortest of the par fives on the course, the 9th hole is by no means an easy hole. A well-positioned tee shot favoring the left side sets up an opportunity to go for the green in two. However, beware of the menacing fairway bunker on the left. Golfers who opt for a longer second shot will need to navigate a downhill slope, while those who choose to lay up can expect a mid to short iron approach shot to a green surrounded by well-placed bunkers and mature trees that defend the right side.

Hole 10

The 10th fairway is narrow and heavily guarded by trees on both sides, which demand accuracy and penalize wayward shots. Players must hit their tee shots to the middle or right side of the fairway to have an unobstructed approach to the green. The green is protected by deep bunkers to the right and another bunker short left. Approach shots that land beyond the flagstick will face a downhill putt, which is among the fastest on the course, putting a premium on a delicate touch around the greens.

Hole 12

Welcome to the 12th hole, the longest par four on Brae Burn country club. This slight dogleg left requires a well-placed tee shot to find the fairway between the bunkers. The second shot will be a challenge if you miss the fairway, as trees will block your path to the green. The two-tiered green is well protected by bunkers on both sides, making it challenging to hit the green in regulation. Be mindful of the false front and the run-up area that can collect balls that come up short. A par on this hole will feel like a birdie.

Hole 13

Welcome to the 13th hole at Brae Burn. This par four offers a classic dogleg left layout, giving players a variety of options off the tee. For those who prefer a more conservative approach, the right side of the fairway provides a safe landing area, avoiding the three bunkers that guard the corner of the dogleg. However, for the more daring players, going for the driver over the bunkers could leave you with a wedge shot to the elevated green. Be warned, this green features a range of tricky pin positions, and missing it can lead to a tough up and down, especially if you go long.

Hole 15

The 15th hole at Brae Burn is a true gem and one of the most scenic holes in the New York area. This par five is a great risk-reward hole, with long hitters tempted to go for the green in two shots. However, a well-placed lay-up shot just left of the two fairway bunkers can set you up with the best angle into the green. But be warned, the green is well-protected by water and bunkers on both sides, and a misstep can easily turn a birdie opportunity into a bogey or worse. Take your time to navigate this hole, and with the right strategy, you can walk away with a great score.

Going long can be disastrous, as it will leave a difficult downhill chip back onto the green. The sixteenth is a great test of skill for even the most accomplished golfers.

Hole 18

The 18th hole is a true test of a golfer's nerve. This par 5 can be a birdie opportunity for those who play smart and precise shots, but beware of the potential pitfalls along the way. Long hitters can aim for the left side of the fairway, carrying the bunkers for a chance to reach the green in two. But for those who prefer to play it safe, favor the right side of the fairway to avoid a forced layup. The second shot requires careful consideration, as the downslope from 100 yards in can leave you with a challenging downhill lie. The raised green, surrounded by deep bunkers, demands a precise approach shot to set up a par or better. Don't let the excitement of the finish get the better of you, or you may end up with a scorecard you'll want to forget.
