Black Gold Golf Club is an 18-hole course set in the rolling hills of Amish Country in Sugarcreek, Ohio, spread across roughly 140 acres of scenic countryside.
The layout calls for accurate shot placement, with fairway and greenside sand bunkers positioned strategically and native grass areas framing play. The greens are undulating, quick and true, placing particular importance on approach shots and giving golfers of varying skill levels something to think about. Course conditioning is overseen by head and assistant superintendents Bryce Hagan and Richard Beck.
