Playing Tips

The course’s open, spacious layout rewards well-placed tee shots, but its 6,926‑yard length means distance and course management are important on longer par‑4s and par‑5s.

Be mindful of wind coming off the river—crosswinds and headwinds can dramatically affect club selection and ball flight on exposed holes.

Bentgrass greens tend to be smooth and can run firm; control approach speed, aim to leave yourself putts from below the hole, and read subtle breaks.

With generous landing areas and no strict shoe rules, favor controlled long clubs (hybrids/long irons) into greens rather than always trying to overpower holes to avoid big numbers.
