Hole Description:
377 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Trees border the fairway on the left and the right.
While the hole only plays at 377 yards from the tips, it is
important to hit the fairway. Use a 3 wood or a long iron off the
tee to leave a short iron 2nd shot to a small green.
Play your approach shot to the front portion of the green. Going
over the green is a certain bogey. |

Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This hole is a straight away par 3
and what you see is what you get. The green breaks less than you
think. |

Hole Description:
396 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Use a driver off the tee of this straight forward par 4 for a short iron
2nd shot. If the cup position is to the front, play short;
it’s better to chip from short of the green than to try to putt from
above the hole. |

Hole Description:
360 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This hole is a short par 4. You can use a driver; however a 3 iron to a
3 wood leaves a more comfortable distance for the approach. Note: green
slopes slightly front to back. |

Hole Description:
535 yard, par 5
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This par 5 is a great risk – reward hole. For the long hitter, you can
try for the green in two but beware that the tree line to the right is
OB and water is around the front, left, and behind the green. For most
golfers, play it safe and lay up your 2nd shot to
approximately 120 yards from the green; your 3rd shot will be
a short one to the green. |

Hole Description:
398 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
There is water everywhere on this medium length par 4. It borders the
tees to the right and also comes into play to the right of and behind
the green. Hit a driver or a 3 wood to the top of the hill. This will
leave you with a reasonably short approach to the green. |

This Hole Sponsored By:
|
Hole Description:
532 yard, par 5
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This par 5 will reward those who risk it in two; however, make one small
mistake and the lake to the right will swallow your ball and make this
hole miserable. The best play off the tee is just to the right side of
the fairway bunkers on the left. The green will challenge as it slopes
considerably from back to front. |

Hole Description:

Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This short par 3 is your best chance for a birdie putt. Keep under the
hole. You will continue to enjoy the lakes that have been in play on 6
and 7. |

Hole Description:
432 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This dog-leg right par 4 will challenge; consider par here a good score.
Play a fade with a driver or hit a long iron or fairway wood to the
corner of dog-leg. This will leave an approximate 190 yard approach
shot. OB and a water hazard lurk on the right. And just to make it even
more fun, the green slopes severely from the left to the right. |

Hole Description:
395 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Hitting the fairway on this hole is
a premium. This par 4 has a water hazard on the left and trees on the
right. Use a 3 wood or long iron off the tee to leave 160 yards or less
for your 2nd shot. |

Hole Description:
200 yard, par 3
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This hole is a great little par 3 with an irrigation canal to the left
and behind the green. Any tee shot that is on or within chipping
distance of the green is a good shot. The rest of your round is just
getting interesting as this green is the first of 8 greens in a row that
have considerable undulation. Finding your ball in the wrong area of the
remaining greens will demand considerable talent on your part to 2 putt. |

Hole Description:
405 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This dog-leg left, par 4 is an excellent hole. Trees border both left
and right and an irrigation canal on the left is added challenge.
Driving accuracy is a premium for this hole. Use a 3 iron to 3 wood off
the tee to leave a short to midiron approach shot. As promised, the
small green has considerable undulation and slopes from right to left. |

Hole Description:
531 yard, par 5
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
You can play this reachable par 5 to the left or to the right. But to
play this hole successfully means absolutely being to the left at the
green as it slopes severely from right to left with considerable
undulation. If the pin placement is to the front, you are much better
off to be chipping from short of the green than to be past the hole
putting downhill. |

Hole Description:
423 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Welcome to the fun hole! An island green awaits you on this par 4. At
423 yards from the tips it is wise to hit your driver to the left side
of the fairway and to play to the middle of the green and not to the
flags. As the word “island” would indicate, water surrounds the green.
The green, of course, challenges with undulation and slope. |

Hole Description:
411 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Number 15 is a tough par 4 with an irrigation canal running the entire
length of the hole. Right to left players can hit a driver off the tee
but most should hit a 3 wood to keep it in the fairway. An undulating
green, bunkered left and right and OB over finishes the hole. |

Hole Description:
416 yard, par 4
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
This par 4 offers a bit of a breather off the tee, but beware of the
double tiered green. If you choose to play to a back-hole position,
watch out for the OB immediately over the green. |

|
Hole Description:
524 yard, par 5
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
It’s better to be left off the tee than right on this reachable par 5 as
dense trees border the hole. For players going for the green in 2, your
shots to the right of the green will be forgiven; those to the left will
not. OB lurks left on the entire hole. |

Hole Description:
200 yard, par 3
|
Tips & Tricks from the Pros:
Playing from 170 to 215 yards, this
finishing hole is a tough par 3. Being left of the green off the tee
makes par improbable. So, if you are going to miss the green – favor
the right side. |
