HOLE 1
PAR 5 HS. 17
511 500 481 428 yards

A warm up hole; reachable in two shots by the long hitter makes eagle
a possibility while the conservative player finds an eary par to start
the round. On the first shot caution must be taken to avoid the bunker
on the left of the fairway and the O.B. that runs the length of the left
side of the hole. On the right side a large bunker with a stream creating
a lateral water hazard must also be avoided. Second shot through the trees
should avoid more bunkers left. Third shot straightforward to an large
levated and sloping green.
HOLE 2
PAR 4 HS. 3
408 384 368 332 yards

Long par four with sharp dog leg left. O.B. and water hazard guard the
left side. The drive must be over the water and accurately in the open
fairway. Big hitters can cut some of the corner for a shorter approach.
The green is bunkered right and back
HOLE 3
PAR 3 HS. 7
203 189 177 151 yards

This difficult and long par three with O.B. to the left and water to
the right has an elevated and sloping green requiring precise shot. You
may need one more club than you first think. Par is a respectable score
for this hole
HOLE 4
PAR 5 HS. 11
552 537 504 448 yards

A drive hit down the left center of the fairway will get a favorable
kick to the center of this driving hole. With O.B. on the left and a row
of trees on the right accuracy is needed. A accurated second shot is required
from a down hill lie over a stream to a tight fairway. A large green sloping
to the right and away from the fairway awaits the third shot with a tree
protecting the right front and a stone wall behind the green create further
problems.
HOLE 5
PAR 3 HS. 15
166 156 142 110 yards

This scenic par three, the shortest hole on the course nestling in the
trees. Requires plenty of height to get over the golden teak trees at
the front left. The green is well bunkered. A possible birdie can be expected
from this hole
HOLE 6
PAR 4 HS. 13
384 372 353 329 yards

Thread your drive through the trees, keeping to the right of the fairway.
Aiming right of the big tree in the fairway to get open approach shot.
Because of severely sloped green, leaving the ball below the hole may
be a better strategy. One of the well characterized and beautiful holes.
HOLE 7
PAR 4 HS. 5
373 356 343 324 yards

Leave your drive in your bag on the challenging hole. With a pond in
the fairway and a creek down the left side, a tee shot with a mid to long
iron is all it requires. The approach shot is slightly up hill to a green
that slopes back to front and is guared by trees on the left
HOLE 8
PAR 4 HS. 9
398 389 364 338 yards

A dogleg left with bunkers both left and right in the landing area make
for another tight driving hole. Water on the right can be reached from
the tee. A creek on the left and behind the green makes a challenging
second shot.
HOLE 9
PAR 4 HS. 1
421 408 375 327 yards

The most difficult par four signatured hole. Long and slightly fade
drive to opend fairway is essential with water both sides. Now you have
a really challenging approach shot - a long carry over the big pond to
a sloping green with O.B. on the right. If your drive is short, LAY UP.
