Played the RED tees in a club tournament. At 5763 yds par 72 a cakewalk? Hardly. Play an iron off the tee, you still have to stripe it and have to pick your target on the greens. Hit driver and try to shorten it up, have to be very accurate, for trouble lies ahead for wayward shots. And you still have to putt the superbly conditioned but undulating greens. So play from any set of tees and you will be challenged. Hit your lines off the tee within reason, and strike your approaches as pure as you can, and you will be rewarded! Good Luck.
Would travel: 120-300 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area
Condition of Course, Difficulty, Layout, Price, Ambiance, No Houses on Course
