Reachable par 5, so go for it with driver off the tee to give yourself a chance to hit the green. If you go for it favor the right side of the long narrow green because the left side is protected by a large deep bunker and lake.

Tough par 5, keep your tee shot to the left away from the bunkers, play smart on your second shot to leave about 100 yards for your third, much easier trying to one putt birdie than going for it in 2.

Players par 4, be careful, don’t try to hit your tee shot any closer than 140 yards out from the green, then make sure you have plenty of club, a little long is much better than short.

Beautiful par 3, cross the bridge to an elevated tee, the green is also elevated, very long and skinny. Favor the left side of the green, the deep green side bunker is no place to be.

Birdieable par 4, if you’re going down the right side don’t go too far, a lot more room on the left. Take an extra club to the green to avoid the front bunker and then make the putt.
