the bluffs
grand ho tram
true essence of links-style golf
The Bluffs Grand Ho Tram was designed by a true legend of the game: Greg Norman. The ‘Great White Shark’ as he’s lovingly called, spent an astounding 331 weeks atop the world golf rankings and won the Open Championship twice.
The experience of playing true links golf among the dunes of southern Vietnam and having dramatic ocean views throughout your round will make The Bluffs Grand Ho Tram one of the most unique golf experiences in the world.
HOLE BY HOLE
PREPARE YOURSELF
Hole 1 - Par 4
Much like the opening hole at storied St. Andrews, the 1st is a par 4 that shares a fairway with another hole (the 9th), making it a very manageable start to the round. But the straighter the tee shot, the more straightforward the approach. Favor the left side of the elevated green with your second, as there’s good chance a miss in that direction will still kick onto the putting surface.
Hole 2 – Par 3
The first of the short holes at The Bluffs is also one of the most difficult. While it plays downhill, it’s very well protected — national forest left (out of bounds), a large front bunker and another behind the green that are ready for any miss clubbed shots. Play the yardage and make a smooth, confident swing. A relatively flat green is the reward for those who manage to find it.
