This maybe a flat "Farm Type" area , but having five (5) holes without water was a big surprise to me. The non-typical sculptured mowed fairways have a mix of trees, sand traps, deep rough and scattered trees lining each fairway. Greens were in great shape and rolled very true at 7-9 even with misty conditions. Having four (4) tee boxes you can play from Gold at 6,873yds/73.7/137 down to Green at 5,067yds/69.3/120 on these tricked hole layout. Weather today was a misty cold wind (2 club) that had us playing from the Black tees 3,253/3,155yds / 70.9 / 126 on this 1998 Brian Huntley Par 36/36 layout. The Front 9 starts out with a straightaway 374-300yd Par 4 hole with O.B. down the entire RH side. The #2 a 385-269yd Par 4 plays into the normal SW wind with water, sand and trees placed to catch those strays. The #4 a 531-450yd Par 5 dogleg left has two (2) water crossings with two (2) front green traps on this Hcp 3 hole. The #6 is a 464-334yd Par 4 that has a pond and traps carry protecting front of this Hcp 5 green. The #7 Hcp 1 hole at 563-440yd Par 5 has a narrow fairway bordered by water last 250yds to the green. The #9 at 382-291yd Par 4 has water "tee to green" on the LH side and tree RH side. The Back 9 starts out with two (2) sweeping left Par 4's at #10/417yds and #11/340yds with water and traps, ready and waiting. The #13 Par 5 at 494-379yds has a creek winding down the LH side and sweeping across the front of the green that is mostly hidden from view. The #15 is just a Hcp 4 treelined narrow 393-272yd Par 4 that has strays pretty much in jail. The Hcp 2 #16 at 459-342yds plays into the wind with front traps grabbing those short shots. The #18 is a real straight narrow 502-407yd hole with traps scattered throughout the fairway and green. Ended up shooting 42/42 w/34 putts on this cold, misty and windy day with a Local regular who had a lot of course tips, Thanks Ron.
