Playing Tips

Take advantage of the wide, tree-lined front nine by being more aggressive off the tee to set up shorter approaches.

On the back nine favor accuracy over distance because fairways become narrower and elevation changes penalize wayward drives.

Approach shots require respect for the course’s fast Bentgrass greens, so land below the hole and leave yourself an uphill putt when possible.

Watch the wind on exposed highland holes and check the flag on every shot; soft spikes are recommended for stability on hilly lies.
