Hole #1: A compliment of mounds, grass depressions, bunkers and a lake to give the player a preview of things to come. The tee shot should favor the right side of the fairway to avoid the grass depressions on the left.

Hole #2: Your challenge, a fairly narrow landing area cradled with mounds on the left and right. The approach to the green crosses a creek through a narrow gap in the trees. The tee shot here needs to be a straight.

Hole #3: The first of two long Par 3’s on the front nine has a green surrounded by mounds, grass depressions and bunkers.

Hole #4: This heavily wooded par 4 will require a solid tee shot played just to the right of a couple of freestanding trees in the left side of the landing area. There are no bunkers.,

Hole #5: A double dogleg Par 5 carved out of the trees, should be played with a right-to-left tee shot to avoid a large fairway bunker on the right. A well placed second shot to a generous landing area will set up a short approach to an elevated green.

Hole #6: A slight dogleg right Par 4.

Hole #7: This Par 3 has a creek that skirts the left side of a green that slopes away from the front.

Hole #8: Avoid the very large grass depressions on the left, a well placed tee shot on this hole will be up the right side against a ridge of mounds.

Hole #9: This hole is a reachable Par 5 from the regular tees. It is just under 500 yards in length, with a generous landing area. However, from the Tournament tees, this hole will play as the longest Par 4 on the course with a drive across the lake.

Hole #10: Most often, your second shot will be blind and very long to an elevated green that features a creek that winds around the green from left to right.

Hole #11: The longest of the Par 5’s, at nearly 600 yards.

Hole #12: Another one of the longer Par 4’s. The first half of this hole is slightly uphill. The second half is slightly downhill to a narrow green.

Hole #13: A medium length Par 3 with a creek on the right.

Hole #14: One of the shorter Par 4’s. Has a slight dogleg right.

Hole #15: The shortest Par 3. Watch out for the creek behind the green

Hole #16: Par 4 that will require an over pond shot to the green.

Hole #17: Par 4 with elevated tees requiring a hit across a creek on your drive.

Hole #18: Final hole, large landing area, go for it.
