Details
|
 |
|
| Hole 1: Play the
right side of the fairway for best approach to diagonal right
to left Kidney Shaped green. Putts will have to contend with a
number of breaks |
|
 |
|
| Hole 2: Uphill
with the green not visible until 125 yards. Best approach to
green is from right to center of fairway. Green is deep Front
to back. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 3: Full
carry over water to get to green do not come up short. Going
long is no benefit as Bunker shots are downhill. Green is two
tiered slopes left to right back to front. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 4: Balls
that hit to left of fairway will tend to roll to right side of
this fairway that slopes to right especially after Pine point
on right. Chance for Birdie here. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 5: Accuracy
is key on this narrow short uphill Par 4. This hole plays
longer than it looks. Turtle shell green provides a challenge.
|
|
 |
|
| Hole 6: Dogleg
left with water along the left side. A slight draw on the
drive is helpful. Uphill second shot is blind to the green
from 220 to 90 yards out. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 7: From the
tee, aim to the left to make the turn on the dogleg. Balls hit
to middle will roll right. Water right 200 to 150 yards out.
Front of green protected by a grass bunker left and sand
bunker right. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 8: Uphill
drive to a down sloping three tiered landing area. Long iron
second shot. Pond crosses fairway from 165 to 125 yards out.
Large green. Balls hit to the back are likely to roll off the
green. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 9: Looks can
be deceiving. Straight away, uphill Par 3 with a green that
has more rolls than a bakery. Use one club more than you would
for this distance to get dancing. Green reading skills are
tested here. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 10: After
Holes 6, 7, 8, 9, Hole 10 begins a string of three holes where
birdies are possible. Avoid right side fairway bunker then
take aim at deep wide green. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 11: Length
is the obstacle on this hole, which happens to be the longest
on the course. There is moderate contour to the receptive
green. Players feel hole plays longer especially approach
shot. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 12: Open
center approach to this Par 3 with a ?cloverleaf? shaped
green. Bunkers protect t he right and left sides. Pin
placement can make for some interesting breaks on putts. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 13: Target
tee shot to landing area on left of fairway short of pond.
(Long hitters can carry the pond.) Club up at least on club on
second shot. Green is deep front to back with a back to front
slope. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 14: Nothing
easy here. Downhill drive to 150 yards out. Second shot uphill
to green must travel through one of three tree defined shot
corridors. Second shot is uphill with a blind approach to the
green. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 15: Uphill
tee shot must get to 115 yards out to have a view of the green
for second shot. Two tiered green is diagonal to fairway left
to right with a large bunker protecting the entire right side
of the green. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 16: Uphill
Par 3. Club selection is important as hole is uphill 1 to 2
clubs and wind will play an additional factor in club
selection. Green is slightly contoured. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 17: Fairway
target to left of lake gives a second shot over a front pond
to a long, narrow green. Big hitters may be tempted to carry
the 240 yards over the water to the front bunker. Wind can be
a factor. |
|
 |
|
| Hole 18: The
final hole presents a chance for birdie to finish the round.
Wide slightly uphill fairway with only minor hazards for
errant shots. Large inviting green slopes back to front. |
