Pro Tips

Par 4 - The first hole is a good chance to get a steady birdie or par to start the day. Hit your drive to the top of the fairway and you will be left with a flat lie with a wedge in hand. Keep your approach on the green, and skew towards the right. Avoid short and left of the green.

GOLD 396

BLUE 388

WHITE 362

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 215

BLUE 206

WHITE 164

SILVER 154

Pro Tips

The 3rd hole is an extremely difficult, long par 3. Par is a great score here, and 4 doesn't hurt much. Avoid the water on the left by playing to the right side of the green.

Men's 7 Women's 7

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 521

BLUE 484

WHITE 477

SILVER 426

RED 426

Pro Tips

The 4th hole is a great scoring opportunity, as a short downhill par 5. There is much more room to the right than it looks from the tee, so it pays to aim away from the water. This green complex is tricky, so it pays to hit it in the correct segment of the green.
 
 

# 5 / Hole 5

Handicaps:
Men's 5 Women's 13

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 453

BLUE 415

WHITE 375

SILVER 352

RED 301

Pro Tips

The 5th hole is a long par 4, and par is a great score here. Keep your tee shot left of the large fairway bunker on the right. This green is very long, and up-and-downs are hard to come by from either the left or the right of it.
 
 

# 6 / Hole 6

Par: 3

Handicaps:
Men's 17 Women's 17

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 185

BLUE 166

WHITE 155

SILVER 127

RED 102

Pro Tips

The 6th hole is a par 3 that is dictated by pin position. Long is a very difficult up-and-down, but short is no gimme either. Aim at the slope in the left-middle of the green, and it could feed to either front left or back right.
 
 

# 7 / Hole 7

Par: 4

Handicaps:
Men's 11 Women's 11

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 457

BLUE 413

WHITE 373

SILVER 307

RED 296

Pro Tips

The 7th hole is a tough par 4, keep your drive in the right-center of the fairway to open up the angle to this large, flat green. Approach shots that end left of the green will bounce towards the water, while shots right of the green will often bounce onto the putting surface.
 
 

# 8 / Hole 8

Handicaps:
Men's 9 Women's 5

Yardage by Tee:

GOLD 381

BLUE 361

WHITE 333

SILVER 308

RED 263

Pro Tips

The 8th hole is a tricky, short par 4. Hit your drive just short of the fairway bunker, leaving a short iron in. Middle of the green is an appropriate target here, as a short-left miss is almost guaranteed a bogey or worse.

Pro Tips

The 12th hole is another great short par 4. There is more room to the right than how it looks, so favor the right to stay away from the water.
