Kame Hollow Links
Virtual course · Bold Birdies original
Kame Hollow Links is a virtual course. It does not exist in real life, so you cannot book a tee time here. We designed it ourselves, hole by hole, on a real stretch of Ohio countryside west of Columbus, using the true shape of the land from USGS lidar.

Overview
The name comes from the kames on the site: low hills and hummocks of sand and gravel left behind by melting glaciers. The routing uses them, along with a lake, two burns and a couple of ponds, to make a links-style course with open fairways, pot bunkers, fescue between the holes and greens that accept a bump-and-run.
It is a par 71 for men and a par 72 for women, from 6,814 yards on the Black tees down to 5,240 on the Reds. The front nine loops out past the lake and back up to the clubhouse knoll. The back nine heads south across the open fields, climbs the east side and finishes over the ponds below the clubhouse.
The course ratings are our own estimates. Kame Hollow has never been rated by the USGA, because it is not a real course.
