Playing Tips

Although fairways are generally wide, accuracy off the tee is rewarded because natural woodland and tree-lined corridors punish stray shots.

Water and valley hazards come into play on several holes, so play conservatively on risk-reward shots and prioritize positioning for the second shot.

Bentgrass greens are well maintained but subtly sloped, so focus on careful speed control and read putts from multiple angles.

The gently rolling, hilly terrain means club selection will vary—trust yardages and use the GPS on carts to manage elevation changes.

Check local wind before each hole as conditions can shift quickly on the hills, and use the 250‑yard driving range to confirm your distances before playing.
