Playing Tips

Holes are kept flat and clearly separated, so you can often be aggressive off the tee and prioritize distance without worrying about many blind shots or heavy bunker trouble.

Although the course sits on gently rolling terrain, most lies are level—still account for subtle elevation changes when selecting clubs, especially on approach shots.

The overall yardage is long, so accuracy from the tee is valuable to avoid long, difficult approaches into greens.

Bentgrass greens are well maintained and can be fairly quick and true, so focus on pace control and read subtle slopes carefully when putting.

Wind is generally variable on this inland site—check the flags from each tee and be prepared to adjust aim and club selection on exposed holes.
