Playing Tips

With yardages ranging from 30 to 85 yards, precise distance control and confident partial swings are the keys to scoring well.

Several holes feature water and bunkers, so practice shot selection and have a safe bailout plan when pin locations are aggressive.

Subtle elevation changes and undulating landing areas mean you should think about trajectory and landing spots rather than just aiming at the flag.

Bentgrass greens tend to be smooth and true, so take time to read subtle breaks and avoid overly aggressive putts until you know the surfaces.

Follow the soft-spike recommendation and treat the course as a focused short-game facility where you can work on chips, pitches, and recoveries.
