Playing Tips

Tight, tree-lined fairways demand accuracy off the tee rather than pure distance, so prioritize placement over driver on narrow holes.

At 7,101 yards the course plays long, so choose longer approach clubs on par 4s and manage your tee shots to avoid long second shots.

Pete Dye’s strategic layout rewards conservative play around hazards—leave preferred angles into greens instead of attempting low-percentage carries.

Bentgrass greens are generally smooth and can be relatively quick, so take time to read subtle breaks and control downhill speeds.

Check afternoon wind conditions before key long shots, as gusts can significantly change club selection on exposed tees and approaches.
