Golf Course Hole 1 A straight forward tee shot from an elevated tee that needs to stay between the fairway bunkers. The green slopes from left to right. Favor the right side on your approach as anything left or long will make for a very difficult up and down. Play Video Hole 2 A sharp dogleg right to left with a fairway that slopes from left to right. One of the most demanding holes on the course. The second shot plays uphill dramatically, so make sure to add a club or two. Play Video Hole 3 A slight dogleg from left to right with many options off the tee. Lay back with an iron or fairway wood to try and find a level spot for your approach, or challenge the hole with your driver that brings fairway bunkers into play. The most severe green on the course by far. Any miss to the left or long on your approach shot will leave a very difficult downhill chip. Play Video Hole 4 A straight forward hole that plays uphill dramatically on the approach shot. Play Video Hole 5 Favor left side off the tee as this shortens up the hole. The lay up is crucial to have correct yardage to stay out of the pond that is lurking. Play Video Hole 6 A hole that plays a bit shorter than the yardage due to the downhill tee shot. You may want to take one less club. Check the flagstick for wind as the tee is partially sheltered from the wind. Breaks on this green are very subtle. Play Video Hole 7 Favor left side off the tee on this slight dogleg from left to right. A very long demanding hole. Much better to be short of the green on your approach than long. A par is well earned here. Play Video Hole 8 Options off the tee of laying back to find a level spot for approach shot or hit driver and challenge the valley short of the green which will leave an uphill pitch. Play Video Hole 9 Downhill tee shot that with no wind will play a little shorter than the yardage. Play Video Hole 10 A straight forward hole with a premium on position for approach shot. Be wise with your lay up and try to stay in the level part of the fairway as opposed to challenging the slope in front of the green. Play Video Hole 11 Plenty of room down the right side on this very demanding hole. Make sure you have the right yardage for your lay up and stay a little right as the fairway slopes from right to left as you get closer to the green. Play Video Hole 12 This straight, long hole looks relatively innocent but can change your score quickly. Get the tee shot in play and add a club for your approach due to the uphill approach shot. Play Video Hole 13 Not much room for error on this tee shot. Only real bail out spot is short and right of the green. Play Video Hole 14 Aim at small tree down the right side in the distance to avoid pond that is lurking down the left side. Approach shot plays a bit longer and is more uphill than you think. Play Video Hole 15 One of the most visually intimidating tee shots on the entire course. Have a game plan and stick with it. The fairway gets wider further down the fairway. Buckle up and let it go. Play Video Hole 16 A slight dogleg from left to right from an elevated tee. Fairway slopes from left to right. If you don' t catch your best drive, the prudent play may be to lay up short of the creek that fronts the green. Approach shot plays a bit shorter than the yardage. Play Video Hole 17 A downhill tee shot to the signature hole on the course. Have a game plan and stick with it. Very visually intimidating tee shot that plays a bit shorter than the yardage due to elevation change. Play Video Hole 18 More room to the right than it appears on this long finishing hole. If your approach shot is shy of the top of the hill, make sure to add a club or two to accommodate the uphill shot. Green slopes from right to left.
