Hole #1
Par 4 • Men’s Handicap 7 • Ladies Handicap 11
A straight tee shot just left of the fairway oak will leave the average golfer with a mid to low iron in. The real challenge of the hole lies in the approach shot, a properly positioned approach leaves you with a makeable putt, by contrast ending up on the wrong side of the center ridge can almost guarantee a three-putted green.
Hole #2
Par 3 • Men’s Handicap 9 • Ladies Handicap 15
This rather simple par three has danger lurking! A smart tee shot would favor the right side of the green with proper club selection at a premium. Taking into consideration the slight elevation and out-of-bounds long, club down and play to the fat of the green.
Hole #3
Par 4 • Men’s Handicap 1 • Ladies Handicap 1
This long par four is rated the toughest hole on the course. A good tee-shot still requires a fairway wood to long iron in. I suggest hitting the driver and favoring the left side of the fairway. The green isn’t conducive to run-up shot so take your bogey and move on.
Hole #4
Par 4 • Men’s Handicap 5 • Ladies Handicap 3
This is an outstanding par 4 that tees off with panoramic splendor from its super elevated tee. The hole moves to the right favoring a slight fade off the tee. You should avoid the right side due to the deep gully that is situated there. The second shot drops into the green that is fronted by a seasonal creek. This green is double tiered and sets up well for the mid-iron approach.
