Private Golf Course Near In Edmond, OK
The West Course
Similar to the East Course, the West Course at Oak Tree Country Club has a multitude of bunkers throughout and liberal use of periphery greenside mounding, so offline approaches will lead to awkward stances and angles toward the pin. The best illustration of such is the par-5 7th, where the final fifty yards is a sand-strewn loop-de-loop. Water is less of a presence than on the East Course, but there are several shots sure to intimidate those with aquaphobia, the tee shot on the par-3 14th being the most notable. Several of the greens have some serious contour, the par-4 12th and 17th being prime examples

Ease into your round with straightaway par 4. Avoid the trees and large bunker directly off the tee and leave wedge second shot. Multi-sectioned green makes accuracy premium for good birdie look. Avoid front left bunker.

Pro Tips
One of the hardest par 3s on the course. Traditionally playing into the wind. Mid-Long Iron to slender green. Creek and small pond collect many golf balls as short right of green slopes dramatically to the water. Par here gets round off to a good start.

GREEN 306
Pro Tips
Easily the hardest tee shot on course as left to right wind blows directly to the lake which runs down the entire right side of the hole. Accurate drive avoids not only the water but trees lining the left side. Mid-iron approach to large green. Trust your yardage or end up in the large front bunker.

Drive-able par 4 for the longer hitters. Church pew style bunkers, hidden off the tee, protect short and right of the green. Solid drive leaves a flip wedge to receptive green. Make birdie here.

Pro Tips
Solid par 4 with slight dogleg right. Trees on both sides of the landing area make accuracy important. OB left sneaks into play quicker than you think. Slender angled green awaits second shots with large swells right and long making up and downs difficult.

GOLD 150
BLUE 138
WHITE 124

Pro Tips
Short par 3 with pond to the right of the green. Don’t get cute with tee ball or you’ll find bunker short. Triangle shaped green allows for tight pin placements, but a tee ball to the middle gives good looks to any pin.

Par: 5
Yardage by Tee:
GOLD 576
BLUE 518
WHITE 515
GREEN 415
Pro Tips
Long par 5 with blind landing area. Avoid OB left and bunkers on the right. Second shot placement is premium as layup is lined with large bunkers and a fairway that narrows significantly. Longer hitter will go for green in two and find it protected by a host of deep bunkers and grass swells making it difficult to save birdie.

Pro Tips
Downwind par 4 with pond at the end of fairway which lines the left side of green as well. Solid tee ball will leave short iron to relatively flat green. Avoid bunkers short right and long.

Pro Tips
Classic Pete Dye design with large mounds blocking view of the green. Short enough to go for off the tee but blind shot hides OB right and greenside bunkers. Good drive avoids OB left and will leave wedge to small tough green. Avoid going long.

Pro Tips
Short par 4 with accuracy a premium off the tee. Long iron off the tee is enough to leave 130-150yd approach. Smallest green on the course requires accurate approach. Protected short by trees and large bunker, left of green drops 20 ft to large grass bowl

Pro Tips
Solid Par 4 requiring very accurate tee shot. Trees pinch both sides of the hole with a bunker extending across the fairway. Good drive leaves 140yds to tiered green. Avoid missing green right into small deep grass bunkers.

Uphill par 4. Solid drive will avoid bunker left and the extremely deep bunker right. Wedge or short iron second shot to green. Avoid large deep bunker short right. Uphill shot hides green surface for hole locations in the back.

Pro Tips
Second and final par 5 on the course. Large landing area but it is a must you avoid long fairway bunkers on the left. Solid tee ball leaves the choice to layup or go for it. Green protected by 50yds of bunkers on the right with greenside bunker and native grass left. Front pin location is green light.

GOLD 399
BLUE 374

GREEN 268
Pro Tips
Short par 4 with large collection of bunkers and swells protecting the left side of fairway and short of green. Fairway off tee tightens significantly at 75yds out so accurate tee ball is a must. Aggressive short iron or wedge approach set ups good look for birdie. Avoid pot bunker right of green.
# 18 /
Par: 4
Yardage by Tee:
GOLD 456
BLUE 389
WHITE 374

Pro Tips
Solid par 4 finishing hole. Creek runs the length of the left side with fairway sloping towards hazard. Large mounds right help to catapult ball down the fairway. Avoid hitting it too far as second will be 50 ft below green surface. Well placed tee ball leaves 100yds and clear view of green. Precise second shot to proper tier required for good birdie chance.
