Playing Tips

The uniquely shaped greens are often subtle and sloping, so aim to leave approach shots below the hole to give yourself easier uphill putts.

Bentgrass greens can run relatively fast and pick up break, so always check the pin position and be conservative with downhill pace.

Bunkers have wooden edging and are strategically placed, so missing greens can lead to difficult recoveries; prioritize accuracy into the green over risking longer shots.

Although the overall routing plays fairly flat, several holes are exposed to local breezes — account for light crosswinds when choosing clubs.

At 6,772 yards the course is moderately long, so smart course management and hitting fairways will reward you more than trying to overpower hazards.
