New Albany Country Club (West/North)

Overview: The West/North routing at New Albany Country Club belongs to a private 27-hole Jack Nicklaus facility in New Albany, Ohio. The named combination moves through parkland corridors shaped by Rocky Fork Creek, with tree-lined holes and more open sections creating a varied rhythm across the property. It is a routing where the landscape supplies the changes in character: water, mature vegetation and open ground alter the preferred line before the scorecard's par-72 distance of about 7,288 yards comes into play.

History: New Albany Country Club debuted in 1992 as an early anchor of the master-planned community. Nicklaus Design and course records identify the facility as a 27-hole property, so the West/North label is retained rather than being silently converted into a different standalone course name. The two named nines form the ranked routing, while the larger club remains a three-nine facility.

Did You Know? The 27-hole arrangement is central to New Albany's identity. It means that a ranked reference to West/North describes a particular combination of nines, not a separate 18-hole club with no relationship to the other loop. That distinction helps explain why published scorecards can show a nine-hole North card while the ranked routing is listed as a full round.
