Playing Tips

The long, wide front nine rewards big hitters—be aggressive off the tee but aim for the center of the spacious greens to avoid long two-putts.

The back nine is tighter with trees and well-placed bunkers, so prioritize accuracy and position your approach shots to the correct side of undulating greens.

Pay attention to elevation changes and undulating fairways as they can influence roll and club selection, especially on uphill and downhill approach shots.

Bentgrass greens are maintained well but can be quick and have subtle breaks, so read the putt conservatively and avoid leaving yourself long downhill putts.
