Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #1 - A classic opening hole - not very long, plus it plays downhill, with a larger-than average and relatively flat green.
From The Fairway Favor the right side off the tee because the fairway slope is designed to direct tee shots towards the fairway bunker on the left.
On The Green
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #2 - A very challenging dog-leg to the left.
From The Fairway
On The Green Once you have negotiated the dog-leg, you have an uphill shot to a well-bunkered green. The green is divided by a slight ridge running front to back.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #3 - A medium-length par 3, but well-bunkered with a grass mound in front, which will deflect low approach shots.
From The Fairway
On The Green This green also has a ridge running front to back, but this ridge is more pronounced than the ridge on the second green.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #4 - An excellent risk reward par 5.
From The Fairway The green is well-bunkered and the fairway is approximately 40 feet higher than the green complex.
On The Green
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #5 -A medium-length par 3 that is all carry to
From The Fairway
On The Green the green. Ample bunkering and a green that slopes more than it appears to. You do not want to get above the hole here if possible.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #6 - A gentle dog-leg left that plays longer than the yardage on the card
From The Fairway because the fairway rises up in the main landing area.
On The Green A narrow entrance to one of the smallest greens on the course requires precise approach shots.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #7 - A very demanding hole despite its length,
From The Fairway with a two-tiered green that sits 40 feet above the fairway. Play this hole to the left off the tee because the fairway slopes gently to the right and you'll have a much better look at the green.
On The Green Bunkers guard both sides of the green, and shots over the green are often penalized by a steep slope into the trees.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #8 - A relatively flat hole which allows for some mental relief between 7 and 9. Be careful though,
From The Fairway
On The Green because the green is well-bunkered and is quite steep back to front.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #9 - Another demanding hole with an
From The Fairway
On The Green elevated green. PrO-Bably the steepest green on the course and a very difficult green to putt. Here again, very advisable to stay below the hole.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #10 - Don't let the yardage fool you here. A short par 4 with a very difficult green.
From The Fairway
On The Green Be especially careful when the pin is in the front portion of the green.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #11 -A hole that turns gently to the left as you approach the green.
From The Fairway
On The Green This is the smallest green on the course, which is also elevated, and necessitates a very accurate approach. An extremely steep hill behind the green causes numerous cautious approaches to fall short of their target.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #12 - A well-bunkered hole from
From The Fairway the fairway to the green. A medium-sized
On The Green green that slopes severely from right to left.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #13 - Normally you will be playing directly into or across the prevailing wind. A narrow, well-bunkered green which requires a very accurate shot.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #14 - The longest Par 4 on the course and it plays to an
From The Fairway elevated green. A very large green with a steep approach, which will cause any short shots to roll about 20 yards back down the fairway.
On The Green
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #15 - The only Par 5 on the back, and it will require consistent shot making. Approach shots from over 140 yards away are completely blind.
From The Fairway
On The Green A diabolical green with a large hump, which separates the back of the green into two very distinct halves.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #16 - The most difficult Par 3 on the course.
From The Fairway
On The Green Very long with a Rhodan-designed green that slopes away from incoming shots. Well-bunkered with two groups of Spruce Trees on either side that add more difficulty to an already difficult hole.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #17 - Pretty straight forward hole, but plays directly into the prevailing wind. Actually, this hole is a bit of a relief after playing 16.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee Hole #18 - Downwind, but always plays longer than the yardage. Uphill all the way to a very elevated green.
From The Fairway Similar to the green on #14 in that any short approach shots are likely to roll about 30 yard back down the fairway.
On The Green Getting the correct yardage here is paramount because any shots over the green leave you with a very difficult uphill, blind ship shot. An excellent finishing hole that is not overly long but requires some true shot-making ability.
