Palmer Course Featured Holes 9 and 18
On hole 9, the Hourglass requires an accurate tee shot between the bunkers. The approach shot is to a shallow steeply banked green. Water comes into play on both shots.
On hole 18, Home requires a straight well struck drive to avoid the fairway bunkers. The green slopes severely from back to front and is the toughest green on the course to read. One tip-stay below the hole on your approach.
Together, both share one large green which is rare on a golf course. There are 2 separate cups on the green but it extends across both holes.

Famous quotes containing the words palmer and/or holes:
“The voice of America has no undertones or overtones in it. It repeats its optimistic catchwords in a tireless monologue that has the slightly metallic sound of a gramophone.”
—Vance Palmer (1885–1959)
“A person taking stock in middle age is like an artist or composer looking at an unfinished work; but whereas the composer and the painter can erase some of their past efforts, we cannot. We are stuck with what we have lived through. The trick is to finish it with a sense of design and a flourish rather than to patch up the holes or merely to add new patches to it.”
—Harry S. Broudy (b. 1905)
