About Our Courses
Tiburon
Golf Club features 27 holes of Championship golf and superior greens. With over
12 acres of lakes and natural wooded areas, Tiburon offers both spectacular
scenery and challenging golf shots. Three distinct nine-hole courses — Hammerhead, Mako, and Great White — provide variety and fun for players
of all levels! Today’s blog will take an in-depth look at these three courses.
Nine
holes of breezy, open fairways sidle up to sparkling lakes. This is the
shortest course of the three by yardage. The toughest tee shot on the course is
Hole 3 - distance is the key to positioning yourself to have an approach shot
to this green. Anything through the fairway or short of the fairway will leave
you with trees blocking your approach. Anything on this green in two should be
considered a victory.
Nine
holes punctuated by rolling green hills, bunkers, and a picturesque lake. The
signature hole, Hole 3, requires a well-placed tee shot to put you in position
to make par. With OB right and a well placed fairway bunker to the left,
accuracy is key here. Even with a well-placed tee shot, your downhill approach
over a lake to a narrow green is intimidating. Don't be long though, as an up
and down from over the green is not an easy task.
Lastly
we have the Great White, which is the longest of the three Tiburon courses at
3,525 yards from the back tees. Hole 4 gives you the best scoring opportunity
for this nine. With OB to the left, and plenty of room right, aim for the heart
of this fairway knowing a good miss is to the right. Definitely reachable in 2,
but bunkers surrounding the green will eat up any off target approach shot. The
toughest hole on the course is Hole 6. Big hitters may want to gamble and cut the right side corner to make
this hole more manageable. Too far right, however, will find OB and any pulls
could send you through the fairway and into the lake. A straight, 250 yard
drive will leave you with a long iron into this narrow green. Any pars on this
hole deserve congratulations!
There’s
