well marked with sprinkler heads measured to the center of the green, 100, 150 and 200 yard plates in the
fairways, and 150 yard posts in the fairways on all par fours and fives. Pin placement sheets indicate the day's hole locations.
Arnold Palmer Course
The Palmer Signature winds through wooded lots of Geneva National with elevated tees and tree lined fairways
providing aesthetic beauty and challenge. There are 5 sets of tees that play to distances and slopes that
measure 7171 yards/141 slope, 6638 yards/134 slope, 6057 yards/128 slope, 5372 yards/127 slope for
women and 4904 yards with a slope of 122 for ladies hitting from the front tee areas. There are 58 strategically
placed sand bunkers and water hazards come into play on 8 holes.
Golfers will find frequent uneven lies along the hilly, sloping terrain which features a relatively open front nine with
a more heavily wooded backside. Land in regulation and good scores can be had as the medium size green
complexes are only mildly sloping. For more info, visit our page for the course with direct link at their website by clicking here.
