Brae Burn Golf & Country Club Fast Facts

Course Overview

Brae Burn Golf & Country Club is a true executive walk. The routing weaves through a quiet neighborhood with short carries, one par 4, and greens that put a premium on distance control. You see most targets from the tee, and the round moves quickly when you keep approach height down and pace steady.

The course tilts toward short-game skill. With many holes under 150 yds and a lone par 4, the separation comes from landing the correct tier and leaving uphill putts. Firm summer days add release, so front-third landings are the safer choice. The design favors center targets off the tee, then a flighted wedge that dies near the hole. Pick the tee that fits your carry numbers, keep the window low when breeze shows up, and accept stress-free pars when pins sit near edges.

Hole-by-Hole Highlights

• Hole 1, 85 yds, Par 3. Stock opener. Choose a window that lands front edge and runs.

• Hole 2, 219 yds, Par 3. Longest par 3 on the outward stretch. Commit to your line and keep flight down if wind is up.

• Hole 3, 98 yds, Par 3. Short approach number. Land below the hole to avoid fast comebacks.

• Hole 4, 144 yds, Par 3. Mid-iron or wedge depending on tee. Favor the wide side of the green.

• Hole 5, 99 yds, Par 3. Precision wedge. Take the tier that leaves an uphill read.

• Hole 6, 241 yds, Par 4. Only par 4. Controlled tee ball to your favorite yardage, then a simple chip or wedge.

• Hole 7, 137 yds, Par 3. Mid-length with room to land short and release.

• Hole 8, 86 yds, Par 3. Scoring chance. Choose a calm tempo and commit to front edge.

• Hole 9, 136 yds, Par 3. Finisher rewards center aim and tidy pace on the first putt.

Amenities & Practice

There is no driving range. Walking is allowed throughout the routing, which keeps the round efficient. Greens are Poa annua, so match speed on a short pre-round roll if you have time on a practice strip or before the first tee.
