Number 1 - Par 4

A drive down the middle will leave the long hitter with a middle iron to a green guarded by a bunker on the left side.  This relatively easy Par 4 is a good starting hole.

Number 2 - Par 3

Club selection is critical due to a typical westerly wind.  Green is guarded by a large bunker.  Better to be long than short on this hole.

Number 3 - Par 5

Long tee shot to the right of the bunker may carry downslope for additional yardage.  Don't be fooled - there is plenty of room to the right from the tee.  Second shot will give you a middle iron shot to a very large green.

Number 4 - Par 4

The wind will usually help this tee shot that needs to be left center to avoid deep depression on right side of fairway and heavy rough on left.   Pin placement on this slightly elevated green will dictate club selection.

Number 5 - Par 4

Straight drive is a must to avoid fairway bunkers on both sides of fairway. This deceivingly long Par 4 usually plays into the wind and the green is guarded by a large wrap around bunker.

Number 6 - Par 5

This Par 5 demands a tee shot that carries over a small ravine.  Second shot needs to stay left center to avoid large mounds down the right side of the fairway.  Third shot with a short iron to an undulating green may wield a deserved birdie.

Number 7 - Par 3

Par 3 with an elevated tee and a very large elevated green.  Miss this green and it is nearly impossible to get up and down.

Number 8 - Par 4

A short Par 4 that requires a drive down the left side to avoid waste bunkers that run from tee to green.  Be careful - this hole looks easy, but can jump up and grab you.

Number 9 - Par 4

Straight tee shot should carry up to 150 yard marker and avoid fairway bunkers on right side.  One of the largest greens on the golf course. Accurate club selection is key.

Number 10 - Par 4

One of several picturesque holes on the course.  It is wise to avoid fairway bunkers that border both the left and right side of the fairway. Fairway slopes left to aid slicers.  Water is visually intimidating from tee, but should not come into play. Better to miss green short and right to avoid waste bunker on left side of the green.

Number 11 - Par 4

Par is a good score here.  Drive must stay left of trees in order to have a clear shot to green.  This green has severe undulation.  If approach shot is on the wrong side of the hole, forget any chance for a birdie.  Great Golf hole!

Number 12 - Par 4

Wide open fairway leaves an easy drive, but watch out for fairway bunkers on both sides.  Medium to short iron approach from an elevated fairway should yield a good score.

Number 13 - Par 3

A great Par 3. Don't let the yardage fool you. A short to middle iron tee shot to a green that is larger than it looks from the tee, must carry over a water hazard that guards this scenic hole.  Pick the right iron because this is a tough hole to get up and down if you miss the green.

Number 14 - Par 4

Be conservative with your tee shot or you may find yourself hitting a punch shot out of the woods or taking a drop out of the water hazard on the right side of the fairway.  Second shot to another large green requires accurate club selection.  Par is a great score on this hole.

Number 15 - Par 5

A beautiful Par 5.  Reachable in two for big hitters.  Short hitters will find this hole very receptive to birdies and pars if you keep the ball in the fairway.

Number 16 - Par 3

The longest Par 3 on the course.  Take par and run!

Number 17 - Par 4

A great home stretch hole.  This Par 4 requires two good shots to reach the green.  Many a match has been won or lost on this hole.

Number 18 - Par 5

A Par 5 where a good tee shot sets you up for success or failure.  A fairway wood on the second shot will give you a short iron to a peninsula green.  An accurate third shot will make a birdie likely on this picturesque finishing hole.
