Playing Tips

At 7,180 yards and par 72 the course rewards length—long and straight tee shots significantly shorten approach distances.

Wide, gently undulating fairways encourage smart course management, so play for position rather than always attacking the flag.

Mature pine trees line many holes and can block recovery shots, so favor accuracy off the tee to avoid awkward lies.

Bentgrass greens were prepared for championship play in 2020, so expect true but potentially quick surfaces and be conservative with pace and line on putts.
