Playing Tips

Each of the three nines—King, Queen and Prince—has its own character so adjust strategy hole-by-hole rather than using the same shot all day.

Many holes feature generous fairways that forgive errant tee shots, but the course’s overall length rewards accurate long irons and fairway woods into greens.

Water hazards and strategically placed bunkers protect several approaches, so favor positional play and a conservative line when the pin is exposed.

Undulating terrain and elevation changes make club selection critical—allow extra yardage for uphill shots and be cautious on downhill approaches.

Greens alternate between bentgrass and zoysia, so read each surface carefully as speeds and grain can vary and affect putt lines.
