Playing Tips

The course's Pete Dye–inspired design rewards tee accuracy over sheer distance, so prioritize fairway position to avoid well-placed bunkers and water hazards.

Greens are bentgrass with noticeable undulations, so plan approach shots to leave putts uphill and be prepared for subtle breaks on fast surfaces.

Because the layout is hilly and stadium-style, club selection can change dramatically between elevated and lower tees and greens, so check yardages carefully.

Wind can be variable on exposed tees and ridges despite the inland location, so pay attention to wind direction on elevated holes and adjust club choice.

Use the 270-yard driving range to dial in trajectory and distance control before your round, as precise ball striking is rewarded on this strategic layout.
