Cold Spring Country Club is a golf course in Belchertown, Massachusetts, laid out across two distinct halves. The east side rewards accuracy off the tee and precise approach play, while the west side plays considerably more open.
The round opens with a par 3 of 216 yards from the back tees, played from the highest tee on the property and offering a wide panoramic outlook over Central Massachusetts to the south. The steep drop generally calls for less club, though prevailing winds into the face can add one or two, and trees flanking the tee require a shot down a chute before the hole opens up.
The second, a 537-yard par 5, climbs uphill to a narrow fairway framed by two trees, with trouble left and the best angle from the right side. Four large bunkers guard the left side of a generous green, and the walk to the third hole winds through wooded terrain.
