CLOVERBANK COUNTRY CLUB

The rolling hills of Western New York create natural amphitheaters for several holes here, where elevated tees demand precise club selection into greens that slope away from anything but the most committed approach shots. The back nine threads through mature hardwoods that frame doglegs requiring local knowledge to avoid the strategically placed fairway bunkers that punish indecisive swings. This is thinking man's golf where course management trumps pure distance, rewarding members who study their yardage books.
