BUCK HILL GOLF CLUB

The Pocono Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop for this Donald Ross design that threads through mature hardwoods and rolling terrain with surprising elevation changes. Ross's strategic bunkering remains intact, demanding precise approach shots to small, subtly contoured greens that reward local knowledge and punish the overly aggressive. At nearly 6,000 feet above sea level, the thin mountain air adds 10-15 yards to every club, turning what appears to be a modest layout into a thinking player's paradise where course management trumps raw power.
