Pro Tips
Aggressiveness is over!!! This difficult uphill, long Par 3 is the first test of your round. Shoot for the middle of the green and be happy with a par. Any miss short, left, or right can lead to a large number and set you back for the rest of the round.

Another challenging hole, but this Par 4 will be made easier once you reach the right center of the fairway on the downhill tee shot. Avoid being short with your approach as the up and in is easier from behind the green.

Pro Tips
The round hasn’t gotten any easier, as this short Par 5 can be a friend or foe. A drive up the right center of the fairway can make this green reachable in two and avoids the creek that runs the length of the hole. If you need to lay back, give yourself a full wedge into this green and should make for an easy par.

Pro Tips
This short but difficult Par 4 requires a precise tee shot to the end of the fairway on the far left side while avoiding the lake. If you get too far right, you will be blocked out from the green and will have to curve a shot around the trees. A par is always a good number here.

Pro Tips
One of the toughest holes for all players on this course is this Par 5. Long, narrow, and uphill, well defended with bunkers and trees means that you need precision for the entire hole. Keep your drive up the right center and then leave yourself a full iron shot into the green. Go for the middle of the green and be thrilled with a par, because 8 is a common score on this hole.

Another easier hole to recover from the previous hole. This downhill Par 3 is considered the easiest hole on the course for a reason. You have room for error and still make a par. Take advantage as it only gets tougher from here.

Pro Tips
A very difficult Par 4 that doglegs slightly left can create problems for you along the length of the hole. There is trouble left and right along with being the longest Par 4 on the back nine. Keep your drive in the middle and don’t be afraid to be a little short on your approach to the green.

Pro Tips
This difficult downhill Par 3 is one that you won’t want to miss long or left. There is a little room for error to the right or short, but anywhere on the green will give you your best shot at a par.

Pro Tips
A great final Par 4 for the course. You will need to clear the heavy rough in front of you with a good drive to the middle-middle right of this fairway. This hole is short enough to hit an iron or fairway wood to leave you just a wedge to the elevated green. You can miss this green and still get up and down, but the slope will make it very difficult.

Pro Tips
A quirky and fun finishing hole. This short Par 5 has led to a lot of anguish, heartache, and excitement over the years. A good drive to the left center of the fairway will give you the best approach to this dogleg right green. The pond on the left of the fairway and then along the front up past the green does not give you room to miss. A well placed drive means that you will need to pick a target up the left side of the hole to avoid rolling into the water. It is reachable in two, but the green won’t hold an aggressive long iron into this well protected hole. Keep left the entire way and you can escape with a par, but if you find yourself down a stroke, apply some pressure by getting home in two!
