The course, from above

This map draws 18 hole lines for an 18-hole course. Holes 6–8 are each drawn in more than one place, so a line here may not be the hole it is numbered. OpenStreetMap has not traced holes 16–18. 25 mapped features sit close to more than one hole and are drawn with the nearer one. The map below draws everything that has been traced.

151 traced features across 7 layers for Betsie Valley, drawn over NAIP 2022 aerial imagery. The map itself needs JavaScript; the geometry is a plain GeoJSON file either way.

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.
