Playing Tips

The hilly layout and long total yardage (6,862 yd) reward smart course management and conservative tee shots to avoid long recovery lies.

Elevation changes often affect club selection, so consider taking one more club for uphill approaches and one less for downhill shots when in doubt.

Bentgrass greens tend to be true and can play firm, so focus on landing approaches below the hole and be precise with your putting pace on subtle breaks.

Wind can pick up on exposed ridgelines, so use the cart navigation to confirm distances and wind direction and adjust your aim; the leaderboard feature is useful for keeping pace in competitions.

Best Season to Play

Best played in spring (April–May) and autumn (October–November) when temperatures are mild, greens are in good condition, and wind and heavy rain are less likely.
