Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Long hitters may choose driver for weapon of choice. A good drive will cozy you up close to the green, but tree trouble looms both left and right on wayward drives. Many players hit a mid iron to to position themselves for a short iron second.
From The Fairway This strategy minimizes tree trouble on the left and right side of the fairway and leaves an approach shot in the 90-150 yard range
On The Green Depending on your choice of strategy of your tee shot, your second shot is either a short iron pitch to an elevated green, or a chip. There is a bunker to the back right of the green. Shots hit in the front right of the green can roll completely off the putting surface, so aim for the center

Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee An elevated tee box stands 20-30 feet above the green, so wind is often a factor. Bail outs are towards the left half of the fairway both short and long
From The Fairway Missing right can put you in a small collection of trees and also presents a more difficult uphill chip as compared to chipping from the left. The number 2 green typically putts slower than any other on the course.

Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee This par 5 has a slight dogleg to the right. The crest of the hill is approximately 225 yards out. A straight shot or one shaped slightly from left to right is optimal.
From The Fairway A miss right will put you in the trees where a punch out is common. A miss to the left can land you in "the sumac" which is a lateral one stroke hazard.
On The Green If you've reached the top of the hill you'll be left with a second shot of anywhere from 225 yards to 150 depending on the length of your drive. Bailout is short. Missing the green on the right side is the most dangerous as there are many trees and the terrain increasingly slopes down towards the road, with O-B not too far past the trees. There is a landing area left of the green but grass conditi

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Quite possibly the signature hole on the course (and certainly the most scenic in the fall) is hole 4. This longish par 3 normally requires a mid to long iron depending on the wind.
From The Fairway
On The Green scenic in the fall) is hole 4. This longish par 3 normally requires a mid to long iron depending on the wind. The green is mounded on both sides and in the back making chipping challenging. Bail out is short and offers a more level chip to the green. Long offers several column like evergreens to contend with. Left offers a bunker next to the green and trees as well. Missing right can also give you

Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Wind is everything on this hole. It often comes directly off the lake blowing directly into you, many times with a slight cross wind towards the right. If these conditions present themselves a low tragectory shot will prevent your ball from ballooning short or flying out of bounds into the road
From The Fairway
On The Green When conditions are more favorable, there are bunkers to contend with, 1 short left, one skirting the left of the green, and one just short of the green on the right. The sucker pin is on the right side, so avoid the trap in front and aim to the center of the green

Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee A blind tee shot, but straight hole. A good drive will will result in a short to mid iron
From The Fairway Some players prefer the left side of the fairway as the center and right side present somewhat of a side hill lie.
On The Green A short to mid iron approach requires some precision as this green is much wider than it is deep, and long is to be avoided at all costs. Bail out is short

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Again, a blind tee shot, but straight hole. A generous fairway is lined with trees left and right. A well struck drive will result in a short to mid iron
From The Fairway
On The Green bunker is left and one is short right which also contains some desert grass patches, adding an additional and unique challenge. A shot over the green presents a tough up and down as the rough is always thick and the shot will be sharply downhill. Bail out is short. All variables considered, this is a green light special

Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee drive up the the right center is preferred, but avoid the trees on the right. Trees also line the left side of the fairway. Long hitters can reach the green in two with a mid to short iron if the drive is in the right center.
From The Fairway Drives up the left side of the fairway leave a tough 2nd shot due to the tall trees that would need to be hit over. Beware of out of bounds on the extreme right
On The Green Depending on your drive, you'll be hitting anywhere from a 250 to 150 yard shot. There is a bunker just short left of the green

Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee Tee Shot - Trees line the left and right side of the fairway. Long hitters beware that a drive missed well right may reach out of bounds in a practice area.
From The Fairway A long iron, hybrid, or fairway wood will be needed as your second shot will range anywhere from 300 to 200 yards. Make note of the pin position before your 2nd. If you can't reach the green in two
On The Green if the pin is on the right, aim your second up the left center. Play your 2nd up the right center when the pin is on the left portion of the green
