Playing Tips

Hilly terrain makes club selection crucial on uphill and downhill shots, so consider taking one club extra uphill and one less downhill.

Fairways are on the narrower side, so prioritize accuracy off the tee and consider a 3-wood or long iron/hybrid instead of a driver on tighter holes.

The course uses both Bentgrass and Zoysia greens — Bentgrass tends to be faster and truer while Zoysia reads slower and holds approach shots, so adjust putting speed and approach spin accordingly.

Wind can be variable due to nearby coastal influences, so watch the flags and play more conservatively into the breeze while keeping ball trajectories lower when windy.
