The course, from above

This map shows all 18 holes. Hole 15: line and green predicted by a model from USDA NAIP aerial imagery. Other holes: traced by OpenStreetMap contributors. The course outline is inferred from the mapped holes — OpenStreetMap has no outline for this course, so the shaded area is our own and the real property line may sit wider or tighter. 29 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, and the hole lines the model predicted.

166 features across 7 layers for Trout Lake Golf Club, 164 traced and 2 predicted by a model, drawn over NAIP 2022 aerial imagery. The map itself needs JavaScript; the geometry is a plain GeoJSON file either way.

We don't hold a stroke index for this course's holes, so that row is not above. The yardages are every figure we hold hole by hole.

No per-hole yardages are published for Gold, so it is not on the card above.

Plan it in the Studio

Plan Trout Lake Golf Club hole by hole, for your game.

Ask in plain words. The Studio draws each hole on the aerial photo, picks a club for each shot from your carries and the way you miss, and shows where a miss costs you strokes. Where a green was surveyed, it reads the slope too.
