Give Our Readers An Overview of the Golf Course/Property Zoar Golf Club has been a destination course for Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania players for years. Superintendent Eric Crone has created some of the most consistent day to day conditions around.
Zoar GC is host to many amateur, collegiate and high school tournaments throughout the season.
We work closely with most of the local hotels for those that like the stay and play golf vacations.
The pro shop is well stocked with men's and women's apparel, shoes, bags, hats and balls.
Our practice is second to none with driving range, chipping/bunkered green and putting green.
Tee times are strongly suggested.
If Someone Was Looking To Golf In The Area, Why Should They Play Your Course? Our 4.6 google rating
What Tips or Local Knowledge Would You Provide To Help Them Score Better At Your Course? My friends ask about Zoar and I respond: It's pretty easy to get up to, or around the green. Then the work begins! The greens have just enough undulation and speed to make you grind just a bit.
Any recent changes to the golf course? Or any upcoming changes? We have added six new senior tees.
Recent Awards or What You Are Most Proud About The Course? I am proud of the employees. We are widely regarded as "the most friendly place."
What Is The Signature, Most Talked About, or Most Photographed Hole? Probably our last two holes. #17 is a short risk/reward hole and #18 is bunkered on both sides of the fairway near most landing areas for drives, with water in play front and left of the green.
What Is Your Favorite Hole? Any Tips to Play It? I suppose #9. Wide fairway, elevated tee, no reason to finish the front with a par or better.
Must Have Dish or Drink after the round at the 19th Hole? Our snack bar features fresh chicken salad sandwiches and the best all beef jumbo hot dogs in the continental 48! Beer and liquor also available.
For the traveling golfer, do you have lodging onsite or partner with any area hotels? No Lodging here, but our website has links to area Hotels.
Who Holds Course Record and What Was Their Score? From the blue tees, Eric Crone the course superintendent. He posted a 62 (31-31) in the Tuscarawas County Amateur. From the black (tips) tees, Jacob Appleby fired a 7 under par 65 on the second day to win the Zoar Memorial.
