A welcoming opening par 4 with a relatively open fairway that tightens as it approaches the green. Bunkers protect the right side of the putting surface, rewarding accuracy on the approach shot.
The #1 handicap hole plays as a stern par 4 with a demanding length that tests players from the start. The fairway is relatively straight but narrow, with trouble lurking on both sides to punish wayward drives.
A mid-length par 4 that favors position over distance, with the fairway narrowing considerably near the green. Bunkers and potentially tight surrounds on the right make precision crucial for a scoring opportunity.
A short par 3 that belies its handicap ranking with a surprisingly generous green and minimal frontal hazards. The relatively open approach makes this a good opportunity to post a birdie.
A short par 4 that plays downhill and offers an excellent birdie opportunity for those who can control their distance. The fairway allows for aggressive positioning, though the approach to the green demands accuracy.
A brief par 3 where the primary challenge is finding the correct club for the distance and holding the green. The small target and surrounding hazards make precision off the tee essential despite the modest yardage.
A reachable par 5 that tempts aggressive players with a three-shot option and challenges longer hitters to go for the green in two. The fairway configuration and green complex require careful positioning on both the drive and subsequent shots.
An unusually short par 4 that plays downhill and provides a strong scoring opportunity if the fairway can be found. The dramatic difference in yardage across the tees reflects the significant elevation change and varied challenge by skill level.
The #3 handicap hole, a substantial par 5 that demands precision throughout the routing. Length and layout conspire to make this a genuine three-shot hole for most players, with no easy bailout options.
A straightforward par 4 of moderate length with a fair fairway and a green that rewards solid approach play. The hole provides a balanced test without extreme hazards, offering a chance for a steady par or birdie.
A long par 5 that can play significantly harder depending on wind and conditions, requiring three well-executed shots for most players. The extended yardage and layout demand both distance control and precision throughout the hole.
The #2 handicap hole, a challenging par 4 that plays nearly the same distance regardless of tee selection. Strategic placement in the fairway is paramount, as the green's defenses and overall length make this one of the course's toughest two-shot holes.
A dramatic par 5 with an extreme variance in yardage between tees, playing as either a scoreable three-shot hole or a serious test of distance. The routing and green complex provide an interesting risk-reward dynamic for players of different skill levels.
A short par 4 that offers a genuine birdie chance despite its mid-level handicap, featuring a relatively open fairway and accessible green. The hole's appeal lies in its straightforward design and lack of severe penal hazards.
A diminutive par 3 that ranks as the easiest hole on the course, requiring only a short accurate shot to the green. The modest yardage and open approach make this an ideal scoring opportunity late in the round.
The #4 handicap hole, a deceptive par 4 where length combines with tight positioning and architectural complexity to create genuine difficulty. The fairway demands accuracy, and the approach into the green must be precise to avoid costly mistakes.
A short par 3 with a significant spread in yardage between the longest and shortest tees, reflecting elevation change and wind exposure. The compact green and surrounding hazards demand precise club selection and execution despite the modest distance.
A finishing par 4 that plays longer than its yardage suggests, providing an appropriately stiff test to close the round. The fairway narrows toward the green, and the approach requires accuracy to set up a final scoring opportunity.
