Playing Tips

1
Although the overall yardage is relatively short, many holes cross valleys and creeks so accuracy and course management matter more than raw distance.
2
The signature 17th requires a precise tee or approach to carry the creek, so consider a conservative lay‑up if distance or wind is uncertain.
3
Flat terrain and fairway riding allowed mean you can take advantage of cart access to position for easier approaches and save energy for the back nine.
4
Greens are bentgrass and generally receptive, so focus on leaving yourself short, paying close attention to subtle breaks and pin placements.
