Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The opening par 4 is a perfect example of how to follow where the architect guides you. Take the water out of play by teeing up on the right side of the tee box and aim left toward the bunker. Just be sure you hit a club that can't reach the bunker off the tee.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee This is prO-Bably the toughest par on the course so play smart here! Don't get greedy off the tee and if you happen to end up on the right side of the fairway don't be afraid to lay up short of the penalty area.
From The Fairway There are plenty of ways to make 4 and leaving 90 yards for your 3rd shot isn't a bad way to go if you can't carry the ravine on the 2nd shot.
On The Green
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee Choose the club that can't go over the green and swing away. If the flag is front or left you will prO-Bably have a downhill putt so beware of your speed!

Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee This is a 3 shot hole for all but the longest of hitters so strategy is key.
From The Fairway Leave yourself a full swing into the shallow green.
On The Green
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Play your tee shot down the right side of the fairway to avoid the wooded area on the left.
From The Fairway The second shot plays longer than you think so if you are between clubs go with the extra one and play to the middle or back of the green.
On The Green There is an "illegal" drop area near the green to help you out if you don't clear the ravine with your approach.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee This par 3 gives the illusion of looking longer than it really is.
From The Fairway Pay no attention to the forced carry! Just select the club for the yardage, trust it, and swing away.
On The Green The greatest challenge here is committing to the yardage even though it looks longer.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee This straight away par 5 is a great opportunity for a good score.
From The Fairway Make sure you hit a shot that can't reach the bunkers and play to your favorite yardage so you have a comfortable 3rd shot.
On The Green
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee This long, downhill par 3 plays one club shorter than your range finder tells you.
From The Fairway Anything in the middle of the green will set you up for a good score so don't get greedy here.
On The Green
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A double-dogleg finishing hole will test your mental resolve before you make your way back to the clubhouse. Hit your tee shot to the left side of the fairway so you can avoid the tree for your lay-up.
From The Fairway Lay-up to your favorite yardage and take advantage of a large green to set yourself up for a birdie putt. This entire hole plays uphill so take a little extra club for each shot.
On The Green
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee Be sure to get back into your pre-shot routine after the turn so that your mind and body get back to the rhythm of your game.
From The Fairway The fairway bunker is a perfect aiming point to avoid the trees on the right.
On The Green From there, play your short iron to the left side of the green to avoid the front bunker.

Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee Once again, the "fat" part of the hole is found by aiming at the left fairway bunker.
From The Fairway On the second shot, play the club that you are sure to reach the middle or back of the green with to open up the hole.
On The Green

Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee The ideal second shot is taken from the 100-125 yard markers so plan your tee shot accordingly, there is no need to hit driver on this short par 4.
From The Fairway
On The Green The second shot plays a touch uphill and requires good distance control but the better miss is a little long rather than short. So, if you are between clubs take the longer one.

Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway If you can carry the fairway bunker off the tee, go for it! Otherwise, be sure you can't reach the water and aim toward the lake.
On The Green If this is a three-shot hole for you consider using 3-wood off the tee to avoid all trouble and use the widest part of the fairway. Your layup should stay short of the next fairway bunker to leave you a full approach into the two-tiered green.

Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee This short par three is a great opportunity for a good score, but club selection is important as the green is set at an angle.
From The Fairway Be sure you are using a club that can't go over the green in line with the flag and go ahead and swing away.

Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Play to the 125 marker on this hole again. Select the club that gets you there (does that mean hybrid off the tee?) and aim a bit right to take advantage of any kick down the hill.

Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee Undoubtedly the toughest green on the course, this uphill par 3 is a challenge even if you make it to the putting surface.
From The Fairway Take an extra club, maybe two, and pay attention to the hole location. A rangefinder comes in VERY handy on this hole!

Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee Take advantage of this short par 4 by leaving yourself with a full wedge shot into the green. Its easy to want to knock it as close as possible but you'll want the spin created by a full swing to hold the green that ends up sloping away from you.

Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee The left side of the fairway is the place to be so aim for the clubhouse and swing away. If you end up blocked out by the trees to the right take your medicine and punch out short of the lake to leave yourself a chance to get up-and-down to save par.
From The Fairway Playing to the middle of the green from the fairway is advisable and causes the least amount of trouble regardless of the hole location.
