Hole #1 - Par 4

349

324

293

266

The first hole is a gentle introduction to the golf course. Once on the green be wary. Putts from the back of the green to the front can be very fast.

Hole #2 - Par 5

522

490

457

418

Hole 2 provides the player with a large landing area off the tee. Second shots need to avoid a fairway bunker 80 yards from the green. The green features 3 distinct section. If the flagstick is in the back, beware of going long!

Hole #3 - Par 3

179

142

116

Hole 3 is the first Par 3 the player will face. The green is perched up and in order to hit the green the player needs to land in front or play a high, soft approach shot. Beware of the bunker short and to the right!

Hole #4 - Par 4

413

376

345

304

Hole #4 rewards the brave. With water left and OB to the right an accurate drive is required. Players who bail to the right on the second shot will face a very difficult up and down with water looming to the left of the green. Keep your ball short and in front of the green for the easiest recovery.

Hole #5 - Par 4

393

374

339

284

The fifth hole features a tee shot over water with more room to the right then the player would guess. Large bunkers guard the green which is deceptively fast from front to back.

Hole #6 - Par 4

414

368

333

296

The sixth hole is a slight dogleg right with a desert feature guarding the right side of the fairway. Long hitters will be tempted to carry the desert to shorten the hole. Do not go over this green as it is exceptionally fast from the back of the green to the front.

Hole #7 - Par 5

514

489

460

404

Hole 7 features the most scenic tee box on the course. Players will want to cut off as much as they can over the fairway bunker on the left. A cross bunker dissects the fairway 80 yards out forcing players to layup short or go for the green surrounds. At the end of this Par 5 a very tricky green awaits.

Hole #8 - Par 3

165

139

114

Hole eight is a beautiful par 3 over water. Be sure to take enough club to carry the lake but players who find themselves over the green will be faced with a difficult par.

Hole #9 - Par 4

424

384

337

305

The tee shot at hole nine can be played short of the fairway bunker into a large fairway or, for the brave, into the thin strip of fairway to the right the bunker. Once the player negotiates their way to the green, they will encounter what most agree is the most difficult green on the course.

Hole #10 - Par 5

501

477

437

407

The back nine begins with a fairly tame par 5. Avoid the waste bunker on the left from the tee to give yourself the best opportunity to make the green in two. Two bunkers guard a sneaky green with a ridge separating the front from the back.

Hole #11 - Par 3

191

166

146

113

The eleventh hole is a downhill par 3. The most difficult flag positions are on the back right of the green. The bunker over the green is a very difficult spot so make your mistake short of the green.

Hole #12 - Par 4

449

420

399

342

Hole twelve is the longest of the par 4’s on the course. Tee shots should favor the left side of the fairway as the rough on the right can be treacherous. Players will find it is much easier to get your ball up and down from short of the green than it is from the left or the right side.

Hole #13 - Par 4

350

316

285

243

The thirteenth hole is a relatively short par 4. Once again, the challenge ramps up when you reach the green. A large ridge runs through the green from the left-hand side and you need to be on the correct side of that ridge to have a chance at your birdie. Pick your club wisely on your approach.

Hole #14 - Par 3

199

164

146

101

Hole fourteen features a large lake to the left of the green. Shots that land between the green and the water tend to kick left towards the hazard, so give yourself plenty of cushion. For the player that bails out to the right, two bunkers await their recovery shot with water waiting long.

Hole #15 - Par 4

400

363

338

285

The fifteenth hole has a very wide fairway with a single fairway bunker on the left side. For most player, use that bunker as an aiming point and you will be perfect. The green is perched up and requires an accurate approach.

Hole #16 - Par 4

331

296

221

The dominant feature from the tee at hole sixteen is an expansive fairway bunker running down the right-hand side. Once the play has avoided that bunker, they will be faced with a short approach to the green. The green has a lot of slope so be sure to keep your shot under the hole for the best opportunity for a birdie.

Hole #17 - Par 5

527

495

469

439

The seventeenth hole is the final par 5 of the round. Tee shots need to avoid the cluster of bunkers on the left side of the fairway. A large lake begins 100 yards from green on the right-hand side. Shots close to the hazard tend to find the hazard. If you bail out to the left away from the hazard beware….it is very fast from the left to the right towards the water.

Hole #18 - Par 4

377

336

297

267

The finishing hole begins with a difficult tee shot. Out of bounds on the left and a creek on the right demand an accurate tee shot to get the hole started. A lake guards the front right of the green and must be avoided at all costs.
