Short Grass is the free golf app used by golfers at Fox Chapel Golf Club to log rounds, track their USGA handicap index, and run Nassau, Low Medal, and Skins bets — all on the course, in real time.
Fox Chapel Golf Club, nestled in the scenic hills just north of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, stands as a testament to classic golf course architecture. Designed by the legendary Seth Raynor and opened in 1923, the course embodies his distinctive design principles, featuring template holes inspired by the great courses of the British Isles. The club offers a challenging yet immensely enjoyable experience, characterized by strategic bunkering, dramatic green complexes, and a natural flow that integrates seamlessly with the rolling topography of the Allegheny Valley.
The course underwent a significant restoration by Fazio Design in the early 2000s, meticulously bringing Raynor's original vision back to life. This restoration ensured that the course's historic character and strategic integrity were preserved, enhancing its reputation as one of the finest classic designs in the region. Members and guests consistently praise the course for its immaculate conditioning, thoughtful layout, and the intellectual challenge it presents to golfers of all skill levels.
Playing Fox Chapel is a journey through architectural brilliance. Each hole presents a unique puzzle, requiring careful thought and execution. From the dramatic elevation changes to the perfectly sculpted fairways and greens, the course demands precision and rewards strategic play. It's not just a round of golf; it's an immersive experience in the golden age of golf course design, offering a timeless challenge and a deep appreciation for the game's heritage.
