A demanding opener playing as the third-hardest hole on the course. The fairway is relatively open off the tee, but two greenside bunkers guard the right side of the putting surface, demanding accuracy on the approach shot.
A short par 4 that plays straightaway with minimal hazards, making it one of the more generous scoring opportunities on the front nine. The fairway allows room to work with, though the green is modestly sized.
A mid-length par 4 with a fairly open fairway corridor. The hole's challenge lies in the approach shot to a green that requires precision placement to avoid trouble surrounding the putting surface.
The most difficult hole on the course, this par 4 presents a stiff test with its length and strategic green complex. Water or other hazards likely come into play on the approach, making both accuracy and distance critical.
A par 5 of moderate difficulty that offers a three-shot opportunity for most players. The hole's length and layout reward controlled play, with hazards positioned to penalize aggressive or wayward shots.
A short par 3 with a straightforward design, though the small green demands an accurate tee shot. Bunkers or water surrounding the green add an element of risk to this shorter test.
A solid par 4 that plays relatively straight with a fair fairway. The approach to the green requires precision, as hazards frame the putting surface and limit margin for error.
A challenging par 5 playing as the second-hardest hole on the course. Water or other significant hazards likely bisect the hole or guard the green, forcing strategic decisions throughout the three-shot sequence.
The shortest and easiest par 3 on the course, offering an accessible tee shot to a modest green. Despite its brevity, subtle bunkering or slope may catch those who misjudge the distance or direction.
A par 5 with a generous handicap, providing a relatively forgiving scoring opportunity. The hole likely plays wider off the tee, though the green complex may present its own challenges on the approach.
A moderately difficult par 4 with strategic bunkering that shapes the hole's playability. The fairway likely narrows or tightens as it approaches the green, rewarding well-placed tee shots.
A short par 3 requiring an accurate mid-iron or shorter club to a small, well-protected green. Bunkers and potentially challenging terrain around the green make distance control essential.
The second-most difficult hole on the course, this par 4 presents a formidable test with length and strategic hazards. Water, bunkers, or other trouble likely comes into play, demanding both distance and placement off the tee and on the approach.
A mid-length par 4 with a balanced design and moderate difficulty. The fairway offers reasonable room off the tee, but the approach demands accuracy to a green that is well-defended by hazards.
The easiest par 3 on the course and one of the most forgiving holes overall. A short, straightforward tee shot to an open green allows players to post a comfortable score here.
The fourth-most difficult hole, this par 4 is compact but punishing. Hazards likely constrict the fairway or guard the green closely, making strategic positioning critical from tee to green.
A mid-length par 3 with moderate difficulty that requires a solid tee shot to find the green. Bunkers or water surrounding the putting surface add challenge without overwhelming the hole's playability.
A finishing par 5 that plays at moderate difficulty, offering a chance to close out the round with a birdie opportunity. The hole likely allows three shots to the green, though strategic hazards shape play and reward disciplined execution.
