The Clutch

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time of year to play The Clutch without getting soaked or scorched?

We highly recommend visiting in the spring (April-May) or fall (September-October). You'll avoid the brutal summer humidity and afternoon thunderstorms, and the course conditions are usually at their absolute peak with vibrant fairways and perfectly manicured greens.

How challenging is The Clutch, especially for a mid-handicapper?

The Clutch truly lives up to its name, especially on the back nine where water comes into play on four of the last five holes. Don't let the front nine lull you into a false sense of security; you'll need precise iron play and a cool head to finish strong here.

What should I expect to pay for a round at The Clutch, and is it worth it?

Expect green fees to be in the $150-$220 range, depending on the season and time of day you book. While it's not a budget option, the immaculate conditions, challenging layout, and excellent practice facilities make it a solid value for a truly memorable round.

What's the one thing about The Clutch's design that really stands out?

It's definitely the greens - they're notoriously fast and feature subtle, yet significant, undulations that will test your putting touch. Pay close attention to the breaks, especially on the par-3 17th, which slopes deceptively towards the lake.

After a tough round, what's the vibe like at The Clutch's clubhouse or 19th hole?

The clubhouse at The Clutch is surprisingly laid-back, with a fantastic patio overlooking the 18th green - perfect for dissecting your round. Their signature 'Clutch Burger' is a must-try, and the craft beer selection is top-notch for unwinding.
