The course, from above

OpenStreetMap has this course's outline but has not traced any of its 18 holes. The shaded area is the property; no hole, green or tee is drawn.

The outline of The Woodlands Golf Club as OpenStreetMap holds it, drawn over NAIP 2019 aerial imagery. No hole, green or tee has been traced inside it.

The outline is the whole of the traced geometry here, so there is no hole or green to jump to and nothing to measure a yardage against.

Every figure as published except Card yards (derived), which is summed from the card below and shown only where a published figure is contested; a blank cell elsewhere is one nobody publishes. Front 9 and Back 9 are summed from the per-hole yardages on the scorecard.

The Red tees publish a yardage total the scorecard below does not add up to. Both figures are published and nothing we hold settles which one a round plays to, so the Yards column keeps the published figure, marked contested, and each tee's own yardage row from the card below is summed beside it, marked derived.

The Studio

The Studio can't plan The Woodlands Golf Club hole by hole yet.

We hold its scorecard, but nobody has traced its holes: the bunkers, water and fairway edges a plan aims around.

It plans 4,579 courses hole by hole today, and it charts your bag anywhere.

  • The approach, planned A Studio approach map on the aerial photo: a lob wedge aimed at the island green, its spread drawn as a dashed ring over the water, and the side it most often misses. Example from another course: hole 15, Resort tee, Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale
  • The green, from LiDAR A Studio green view on the aerial photo: arrows for the slope a LiDAR survey measured, the area a cup could be cut, and the safer side to miss. Example from another course: hole 15, Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale
  • Every shot, tee to green A Studio plan on the aerial photo of a desert par 4: the driver off the tee and a 7-iron into the green between the bunkers, each shot with its landing spread drawn as a dashed ring. Example from another course: hole 2, Resort tee, Stadium Course at TPC Scottsdale

A published figure is compared only against the courses that publish it too, which is why the totals differ from row to row — a state's length field is the courses with a scorecard, not the courses in the state. Height above sea level is the exception: we derive it from a coordinate, so its field is very nearly every course we render. Ties share an ordinal and are marked =. How this is computed →

3 of 6 parts of this course page are built, and we're filling in the rest.

  • Scorecard, built.Par and yardage for every hole, from 6 sets of tees.
  • Course rating and slope, built.Rated from 6 sets of tees.
  • Course map, partly built.The course's outline is drawn, but none of its 18 holes has been traced in OpenStreetMap yet.
  • Per-hole distances, not built yet.The holes aren't traced yet, so there are no measured carries or distances to the green.

  • Course details, built.All 7 background details — architect, year opened, access, contact and grass.

The site is in beta and the database is still being built, so expect gaps. What's left on this course is ours to build rather than ours to be told — it comes from mapping and survey data, not from a form. Coverage sets out where the whole database stands.
