Teeth of the Dog

"Playing golf at Casa de Campo is like playing on three different planets," said Gilles Gagnon, Director of Golf at Casa de Campo for 23 years, who has played the game on the best courses around the world. "Each course, Teeth of the Dog, The Links, and Dye Fore are entirely different, breathtakingly beautiful - and each singularly, redefines the word challenge." Teeth of The Dog Ranked as the number one course in the Caribbean and 43rd in the top 100 courses, worldwide, by Golf Magazine, Pete Dye´s classic Teeth of the Dog attracts the best professional and amateur golfers in the world. Building this course was a true labor of love... "The opportunity to carve out Teeth of the Dog was a once-in-a-lifetime experience," Pete Dye wrote in his book, Bury Me In a Pot Bunker. "Without proper heavy machinery to crack the coral, the tireless Dominican crew used sledgehammers, pickaxes and chisels." The result was a true masterpiece! Tricky shots such as a devilish dogleg and signature Dye obstacles captivate the world´s best. Toss-in trade winds courtesy of Mother Nature and "seven holes created by God," said Dye, who lays claim to creating only the other eleven, and you discover the magnetic force of this amazing course. But beware... if you dare to challenge the Dog, "at some point in your game, this Dog WILL bite you... guaranteed," chuckles Gilles Gagnon, Director of Golf at Casa de Campo. Top-notch caddies are ready and eager to guide you through the challenge of this beautiful course.
