Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Dogleg Right. An iron shot off the tee will be the choice for many players leaving a long shot of 250 yards to the green.
From The Fairway Only the brave and extra long hitters will tackle the 290 yard carry over the water. Second shots should be left, short of the green traps, leaving an easy pitch to the green.
On The Green Green is quite andulating from back to front; the surface will be fast here.
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Strait forward Par 3. Tee and pin placement toughens this hole.
From The Fairway
On The Green Most players will hit for the middle of the green. Flat green with subtle breaks.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee A sure birdie hole or go for the green and make 2. Don't stray wider than the green side traps on this hole.
From The Fairway Shorter hitters will lay up with an iron. Two tier green, not much room on the top level to fly a ball into.
On The Green
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Most players will attempt to reach this green in 3. Tee shots short or missing the fairway will force the players to lay up short of the wide swail with a creek.
From The Fairway
On The Green A short iron to a very undulating green. Pin placement makes this green tough to putt.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee A scenic tee shot towards the mountail with ideal shot being middle to right.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee

On The Green Another scenic drive back to the mountain. Wide open driving here leaving a picturesque middle to long iron shot to a green, trap on the right. Green slopes from back to front.

On The Green
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee Many players will lay up here, 200-220 yards from the tee, short of a large swail with a creek on the right and left.
From The Fairway The green is elevated. The long hitters may hit their driver, but conservative thinking here gives the same birdie chance.
On The Green Green is fast and undulates from back to front.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This par 5 doglegs right. It is one of the longest and tougher holes on the course. Due to a big fairway swale with a creek and tall trees on the right, the driver will rarely be used here.
On The Green Many players will hit two long irons and short third iron to a fast back to front undulating green.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Although this is a short part 3, the wind causes problems with club selection.
From The Fairway Left green pin placement makes this a good par 3.
On The Green The green slopes from back to front and green edges will move the balls to the traps. Out of bounds to the left and over.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee A scenic driving hold back to the mountains. Long hitters will benefit here and there is lots of room for a wayward drive to the right.
From The Fairway A chance for eagle. Many players will play on an iron second shot to be short of the green front pond.
On The Green The green has three tiers, so short iron distance is a factor here. Miss the tier where the pin placement is and putting becomes difficult.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Along the mountain. Out of bounds left side, a lateral ditch and 2 bunkers on the right. Long hitters have to be wary of a large rock 280 yards out.
From The Fairway All of Tiger Wood's fan would not be able to move this rock and there is no free drop off here.
On The Green Mid to short irons to an undulating back to front green. Bunkers right and left, out of bound on the left, eighteen feet from edge of green.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee Wind is a factor here. Traps and a pond on the left side, trap on the right.
From The Fairway A two tier green with railroad ties at the back, which is part of a hazard.
On The Green Green undulates from back to front. Top tier pin placement is a tough one.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee

On The Green Green is bunkered right and left. Large green.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A drivable green, but wind is a factor. A creek 12 feet wide crosses the fairway at 250 yards out from the tee; most golfers will lay up here with a long iron or 3 wood.
On The Green A short second icon shot to a well bunkered slightly elevated green.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee An inspiring tee shot from a corner tee box demands a 250 carry to the plateau.

On The Green The green is elevated and has two tiers moving from left to right, out of bounds on the left and hazard over the back.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee A truly fun finishing hole with tee shot coming out of a chute to a well trapped uphill fairway.
From The Fairway Green is two tiered moving from left with a 3 foot drop to lower tier and well bunkered.
On The Green Pin placement on the top-level calls for a perfect iron shot with backspin. Birdies will be expected here.
