The tee shot is downhill, with a lake on the right coming into play for long hitters. But if your a single-digit player, you'll itch to go for the green. Scotland Run is a winner. Course designer, Stephen Kay, has transformed a previously used sand quarry into a stunning array of holes. Kay has benefited from a marvelous site rich in character beyond his other two New Jersey shore courses.
Every hole includes at least one memorable element.
It could be as simple as a Scottish-style sod bunker, or as complex as a plateau green fronted by a wall of upturned railroad ties. To this, Kay fails miserably. Scotland Run doesn't have a signature hole - it has 18 of them. Of course, most of us will never be invited to play them. Not that it matters so much, now.
