HOLE 1
This opening hole has been in use since the club’s founding in 1900. With OB and trouble down the left hand side, your opening shot should favor the right side of the fairway, though longer hitters should watch the bunker on the right. A short-to-mid iron is all that should be needed into this receptive green, which is guarded by bunkers on both sides.

HOLE 4
The fairway on this challenging dogleg-left par 4 is partially traversed by a small stream, which angles away from left to right. Favor the right side, as it presents the best approach to this well guarded green. Large trees loom over shots hit too far left, and sizable bunkers can be found to both sides. The ample green is bisected from front to back by a sloped spine which demands your full attention.

HOLE 5
What you see here is what you get. A straightaway long uphill fairway is guarded by bunkers on the right side. Favor the left side, as the right half slopes slightly toward the bunkers and rough. Your long approach to this elevated green should be mindful of the bunkers to both left and right, and the spine that divides it down the middle. In addition, the green slopes from back to front, so position on the green relative to the pin is crucial. For the women, this hole plays as a par 5.

HOLE 7
This short par 4 is no pushover. With trees to both sides and a bunker to the right, players must drive the ball safely to this narrow fairway to have a shot into the smallest green on the course, which is pinched by deep bunkers tight to either side. The green is well-sloped from back to front, making putts from above or to the side of the hole tricky.

HOLE 8
Another straightaway hole, your tee shot should avoid the fairway bunkers to both sides. Favor the right side, as the fairway opens up slightly behind the shorter bunker there. Hitting your approach to this blind elevated green, be sure to clear the large bunker front left, and avoid the small pot bunker to the right. While gently sloped from back to front, there are several small ridges that can affect putting.

HOLE 9
The lone par 5 for men on the outward nine is a slight dogleg-left from the tee, with a large bunker left and OB looming at the tennis bubble on the right. Here the fairway narrows at a series of small mounds to the right, with the Valley of Sin in the rough to it’s side. A long drive down the left side can be rewarded by a downhill run out, providing a chance to reach the green in two. The second half of the fairway, which slopes right to left, narrows at a fairway bunker right and is pinched by trees on the left. The sizable punchbowl green, protected by large bunkers front-right and left, slopes inward from all sides.

HOLE 10
This uphill slight dogleg-right hole can be a brute to conquer, as it often plays into the prevailing wind. Bunkers on the left pinch well into the fairway, which slopes strongly from left to right. Trees guard the right side, making drives hit there difficult to get home. The elevated green has deep bunkers both front right and left. Putting is made difficult by a ridge across the front of the green and a strong slope back left to middle right

HOLE 11
One of the prettiest but most dangerous holes on the course, this slight dogleg-left fairway is bisected by a small stream which angles from front left to back right. Placement of your tee shot is crucial to avoid the water and a large bunker on the left side. The approach to this small well- elevated tabletop green must clear the deep bunker in front, while avoiding the deep rough behind. Once aboard, putting is only challenged by the subtle nuances of this relatively flat surface.

HOLE 12
The other par 5 for the men is a testy dogleg left, with a stream at the bottom of the hill around the bend. The prudent play is to hit your tee shot straight out right of the fairway bunker. Longer hitters can challenge the grove of trees and bunker on the left side, and may be rewarded with a shot at the green. With most other second shots, when not having to deal with the water, must navigate a fairway that is pinched on the left by two sizable bunkers. Approach shots must take into account an angled elevated green that is tilted from back to front, and is also well-guarded by bunkers to left and right.

From the elevated tee box, a long accurate tee shot is required to split the tall trees and find the putting surface on what is the largest green found on the course. Well guarded by bunkers, the green slopes back to front and is divided by a ridge right of center.

HOLE 14
A tee shot up the left side of this uphill dogleg-left fairway will put you in the best position to attack the downhill green. Long hitters should account for the blind maintenance road and rough which bisects the fairway well over the hill. The green can be hard to hold when hitting your approach shot, and be sure to avoid the two deep bunkers. Putting can be affected by two ridges which run through this more undulating green.

HOLE 15
Your tee shot is key on this long but scenic overland hole. Clearing the hill gives a good chance to shoot for the green, and avoid a lay up short of the stream which runs in front. Favor the left side for the most run out down the hill. The receptive angled green slopes gently from back to front, with a menacing bunker front right and inward sloped rough to the back and left. For the women, this hole plays as a par 5.

HOLE 17
Probably the most difficult hole on the course, your best tee shot is to the left half of the fairway to give you a clear approach to the blind downhill green, but to do this you have to challenge OB and trees all along the left side. Trees will also block most shots missed to the right. Your approach to this blind downhill green will take great accuracy to avoid a stream on the right and thick rough around the green.

HOLE 18
The finishing hole may be short, but is certainly no pushover. A narrow landing area with trees and OB left and right make the fairway the best place to be. Favor the right half of the fairway, as the shallow angled green is tucked behind a large tree, and two bunkers guard the front. The green is well sloped from back to front, making putting challenging.
