Hole 1

PAR 4    Hdcp. 7

450  429  398  385  385

A demanding opening hole.  Requires a tee shot down the left side of the fairway, to provide the best approach to a large and undulating green.

Hole 2

PAR 3    Hdcp. 15

182  165  145  145  131

Our shortest Par 3.  A ball hit to the right side of the green will funnel to the center.  Avoid the leftside bunker.

Hole 3

PAR 4    Hdcp. 13

409  380  361  361  356

A straight tee shot is necessary to avoid the fairway bunkers.  Your second shot requires careful club selection.  Left or long will leave a very difficult up and down.

Hole 4

PAR 5    Hdcp. 1

567  544  521  475  475  

Longest of our two Par 5's.  Second shot must avoid the meandering creek down the right side.  The green is very deep.

Hole 5

PAR 4    Hdcp. 5

440  410  387  307  307  

The water on the right should not affect your tee shot.  One of our largest and most undulated greens.  Back pin placements are very difficult.

Hole 6

PAR 4    Hdcp. 11

419  397  377  377  341  

Favor the right side with your tee shot.  Balls hit in the left rough will be blocked off from the green by trees.  O.B. over the green;  err on the short side.

Hole 7

PAR 4    Hdcp. 9

385  364  346  336  273  

Picture:  Look at the tight tee shot from the back tees.

Hole 8

PAR 3    Hdcp. 17

188  163  144  144  139  

Lake on the right will swallow all miss-hit tee shots.  Trouble over the green.  Center of the green is ideal for any pin location.

Hole 9

PAR 4    Hdcp. 3

427  401  377  343  343  

Slight dogleg right to left.  Right center is best tee shot.  Putting surface is quite deceptive.


Picture:  Look at the difficult right pin position behind the large front bunker.

Hole 10

PAR 4    Hdcp. 2

425  405  387  387  350  

This dogleg right Par 4 cuts through the trees and is the most difficult driving hole on the course.  Hitting the green in regulation doesn't guarantee a par on this very undulated green.

Hole 11

PAR 4    Hdcp. 14

411  389  369  278  278  

Club selection into the green can vary, three to four clubs, depending on pin positions.  Very difficult putting surface with many subtle breaks.


Picture:  Approach shot from 200 yards.

Hole 12

PAR 3    Hdcp. 16

208  186  170  170  165  

Difficult Par 3; plays longer than the yardage indicates.  Large mound in center of green makes putting difficult.  Par is a good score.


Picture:  Tee shot from the White Tees.

Hole 13

PAR 4    Hdcp. 12

379  353  329  329  245  

Lake is in play unless you draw your tee shot to the left center of the fairway.  A short approach will give you a birdie opportunity.


Picture:  A look from behind the green.

Hole 14

PAR 3    Hdcp. 18

191  172  158  158  153  

Hole plays the yardage:  don't take less club for the gentle, downhill slope.  All four bunkers are in play.  Center of green never hurts.


Picture:  Behind the green on the downhill tee shot.

Hole 15

PAR 4    Hdcp. 8

449  422  398  398  339  

Two solid shots are required to reach this long Par 4.  Green is slightly elevated.  Avoid the left bunker.

Hole 16

PAR 5    Hdcp. 10

546  515  495  455  455  

Only Par 5 on back 9.  Pinpoint accuracy is needed to avoid the trees lining both sides of the fairway.  A high, lofted, third shot is needed to avoid the front bunker and hold the green. 


Picture:  Approach over large bunker from 125 yds.

Hole 17

PAR 4    Hdcp. 4

442  413  390  327  327  

Water on both sides of fairway requires an accurate tee shot.  Club selection is very important into the huge green. 


Picture:  A look from behind the green on this difficult Par 4.

Hole 18

PAR 4    Hdcp. 6

418  395  380  380  306  

Terriffic closing hole!  LONG, TOUGH, & TREE LINED.  The approach shot to an elevated green ususally requires an extra club.  Pin placement behind bunker is very challenging.
