Golf Course Changes

Last month, numerous trees, bordering the right side of 11th and 12th holes, had to be removed or topped. The health of the trees was in question and they presented a danger to the course and the neighborhood that couldn’t be overlooked. Unfortunately, they also provided a necessary and valuable protection for ball trespass. Without that protection, the course had to make changes to the 11th and 12th holes to minimize the potential for errant shots from endangering the public.

The 11th hole was reduced to a 150 yard par-3 and the 12th was shortened to 110 yards. We contacted WSGA and they rerated the course with the following result:

                                                               USGA Rating/Slope

Tee       Yards   Gender             18 Holes           Front Nine         Back Nine

Blue      5878     Men                  67.5/113            35.4/119            32.1/107

White    5429     Men                  65.5/109            34.0/117            31.5/100

Red      4934     Men                  63.3/103            32.5/108            30.8/97

Blue      5878     Women             73.2/122            38.6/132            34.6/112

White    5429     Women             70.9/117            37.0/124            33.9/109

Red      4934     Women             67.5/112            35.0/120            32.5/104

The hole handicaps on the back nine were also reallocated to properly reflect the new layout:

Premier Golf, along with the city and a golf course architect are working toward a permanent solution. The process will also include interim changes to the holes to ensure the best possible playing experience.

Jefferson Park Golf Course thanks you for your patience during this period.

On Course Draft Beer

The Beacon Grill will be introducing new on-course draught beer pitchers. These pressure sealed and insulated stainless steel 60-ounce pitchers can filled with any one of our eight draught beers just before heading out on the course, keeping your draught choice cold and frothy for hours. Look for the new pitchers soon this month.

FootGolf Expands to 18 Holes

Jefferson Park just added nine holes to its existing FootGolf course. The new set of holes runs alongside the existing holes offering new challenges and fun. Players will be able to choose from 9 and 18 hole green fees. Don’t forget, the short-nine is open to FootGolf play only after 3:00 pm on weekends.
