No.1, Par 4
1st Green
Big hitters can carry pond on left, off tee (220 to clear pond from white tee.) Keep second shot below hole for birdie try.
2nd Green
No. 2, Par 4
A shot of approximately 210 yds to left side of fairway will open up green for short iron second. Dont go over!
3rd Green
No. 3, Par 3
Deceptive par three, prevailing wind adds one club to average shot. Back fringe is a lot better than short in the pond!
4th Green
No. 4, Par 4
Grip & rip! Favor right side of fairway to avoid left/greenside bunker. Over the green is D.O.A.
5th Green
No. 5, Par 5
Big hitters will cut corner over bunker. Uphill second/third shot adds distance. Two tiered green will make for three putts if on wrong tier.
6th Green
No. 6, Par 3
Check wind, watch for O.B. right. 3 here is a great score!
7th Green
No.7, Par 4
Lots of room right but dont be too tempted. Tree protects right front of green. Very deep green add a club for back pin placement.
8th Green
No. 8, Par 5
Play driver left to right for a shot to get home in two. Lay up carefully, pond is home to a lot of errant lay ups.
9th Green
No. 9, Par 4
From white tees play 165 yds. to center of fairway for short iron in. Precision from tee is key to hole. (Too long off tee will find pond or trees, too short will not see corner)
10th Green
No. 10, Par 5
Place driver just short of bunker to open up the hole (220 to bunker off white tee.) Approach shot to large green surrounded by water.
11th Green
No. 11, Par 5
Place drive to left side of fairway. Lay up as far right as possible on second. A precise third is required. If pin is left of center add one club, if pin is right of center take one less.
12th Green
No. 12, Par 3
Great Par 3, choose club carefully.
13th Green
No. 13, Par 4
Big drive down right still leaves long iron or fairway wood to undulating greem. Par here is always a skin.
14th Green
No. 14, Par 4
A solid drive carries the pond on left. Two tiered green can change club selection by up to three clubs.
15th Green
No. 15, Par 5
Anything dry is a good drive here. A long second still leaves a mid iron to a well protected green. (Bunkers short, left and right of green.)
16th Green
No. 16, Par 4
A gentle left to right driver is perfect. Play your second to the center of green then putt to placement.
17th Green
No. 17, Par 4
A drive to the center of fairway is vital to set up a mid to short iron over water/rocks to elevated green. You will remember 17 a very long time!
18th Green
No. 18, Par 3
Two tiered green. Proper club choice is key to hole. Over is automatic 5 or worse.
