Rolling Hills Country Club

The golf : Rolling Hills is a traditional 1950s-style course that is known for its extremely short length. From the tips the course measures 6,117 yards, and it features par 5s that are all under 500 yards. Water in play on just seven holes.
Despite its relative ease, a few holes stand out because of their length. For example, the 2nd hole is a par 4 453-yarder that isn’t too much shorter than the par 5s, and one of the toughest holes is No. 16, a 428-yard par 4 that doglegs left around a lake.
No. 6 is the signature even though it’s only 355 yards. This hole requires a tee shot into a dogleg fairway lined by trees left and out-of-bounds to the right, followed by an approach over water to a well-bunkered green.
