Golf Course Information
Description
Situated on 163 acres of lush, rolling hills in Batavia, Ohio, Elks Run Golf Course is a 6,833 yard championship course that is both challenging and enjoyable to play.
Utilizing bentgrass greens, tees and fairways, this Greg Norman design takes advantage of the rolling hills and creeks to provide a course that works within its natural characteristics. This only maximizes its beauty and difficulty.
Though Elks Run is a test of strategy and skill, it is also fair and honest. Norman, who thinks of each course he designs as a fingerprint of life, strives to design a course where "somebody walks off and enjoys shooting 130 and somebody walks off and enjoys shooting a 63 or a 64. Then you know you've done a good job."
A good job indeed. While playing Elks Run, you will be constantly faced with unique situations that require strategic decisions. The course incorporates rolling, often tiered greens, several well placed sodwall bunkers and a creek that comes into play on the back nine holes.
Elks Run boasts a wonderful mix that is not only visually appealing, but also fun to play. The first nine holes have the openness associated with traditional links, which lead to the wooded side of the course and six par four holes.
The course features an unusually thick first cut of rough, as well as formidable Native grasses. This makes for challenging play as these grasses, which tower a whopping twelve inches, abound on virtually every hole.
