Pro Tips
Favor the left side with your tee shot to avoid the creek running the entire right side of this fairway on this Par 5. Your target for your second shot is just to the right of the last tree on the left and allow the natural terrain to move the ball right on the ground. Your approach should be 140 to 100 yards to a very undulating green. Keep your ball below the hole.

Pro Tips
This is a challenging slightly uphill 168-yard Par 3 that is very well guarded. Do not hesitate to take another club. If the pin is right of center and you carry past the pin you will be off the green. The natural tendency is for the ball to go right to left.

Pro Tips
If you are a long hitter then you can take the ball over the right corner of the trap. If not, then play between the bunker and the big Oak on the right. This should leave you between 180 and 200 yards to a very undulating green. Again, make sure that you leave your ball below the hole.

Pro Tips
This hole is a dog leg right and guarded on both sides with bunkers. The big hitter can take it over the right with a draw, but the best shot is a fade down the center. This will leave you with a 150-to-125-yard approach shot. Depending on where the flag is, your ball should be below the hole. It will break right and is slightly uphill.

Pro Tips
This hole is a slight dog leg left. It is hard to believe that Jack Nicklaus would layout a dogleg left. Off the tee the target is the last group of trees on the right as the ball will drift left once it hits the ground. The green sits higher than the fairway and the bunkers are very intimidating as you look at your approach shot. The green tends to break from left to right.

Pro Tips
From the tee you want to hit your drive about 200 yards. This would leave you an approach shot from 140 to 100 yards to a well-protected green. If you get above the pin, you could have an extremely fast downhill putt. Undulation does not do this green justice when describing it.

Pro Tips
This is a gorgeous hole that is our Signature Hole. From the blue tee the yardage is approximately 168 yards to the center of the green, but the key is the wind. If the wind is behind, you then take one club less depending on where the pin is. If the wind is blowing against you then make sure you have another ball in your pocket.

Pro Tips
This is our narrowest fairway, and the key is to hit the center. This will leave you a 180-to-150-yard approach shot to a double green. Make sure that you pick the right flag. This is a well bunkered green that slopes from right to left.

Pro Tips
This is a very reachable Par 5. The perfect tee shot is a slight fade which gives you a better angle for your second shot. You could have 240 to 250 left but the fairway near the green is hard and will get some roll. Beware of the bunker on the right. Keep your ball below the hole on your approach shot.

Pro Tips
This hole is a slight dog leg right and the fade is the perfect shot. Make sure that your drive is in the middle of the fairway to avoid the overhanging trees on the right side of the green for your approach. This green slopes from right to left. Stay below the hole with your approach.

Pro Tips
This Par 5 requires a drive in the middle of the fairway for a good layup or if you are going for it. Avoid the bunkers around this sloping green.

Pro Tips
Now you can breathe. This is the shortest Par 4 on the course. The issue is not the tee shot, but the approach. Everything goes left and the bunkers are there for a reason.

Pro Tips
This is a gorgeous Par 3. It does play a little shorter than what the card says. The tee shot is just the start. Where you put that tee shot will determine your score or better yet how many putts you will have. Try to stay below the hole.

Pro Tips
The home hole. Avoid the big tree on the right and the bunker on the left by ripping it down the middle. With a good drive you could have 190 to 150 yards for your approach. This is the biggest green on the course. Your approach is so important to this undulating green.
