6 4 452 A long, uphill par 4 that gives the player many options off the tee. Long hitters can play to the right of the fairway bunkers and the have a mid to short iron approach to the hill. Short hitters may want to play down the left side, then accross the arroyo to this elevated green

10 5 536 This unique par 5 offers a variety of choices right from the start. First, decide to play the safe route to the left, or fire one down the more dangerous, yet rewarding right side.

11 4 394 An uphill par 4 also slopes to the right and requires accuracy off the tee. A well struck second shot at three, but beware, the green is treacherous and it can be difficult to determine the read.
12 5 580 A dogleg par 5 that demands a well placed tee shot. The landing area for the tee shot slopes to the right and will set up a lay up to a guarded landing area.

Many bunkers surround tha green that has a giant swale that will deflect shots rights and left.

16 4 423 A great dogleg right par 4 that is best approached from the left side of the fairway. Although the perception may inspire you to hit it right over the fairway bunkers, this tee shot is longer than it appears. The stupendous green is severe and weel guarded by bunkers on the left
17 3 170 An uphill par 3 requires a high soft shot to hold the green. A large rise in the center of the green will deflect shots right and left, so be sure to use the right club to have a good chance at par
18 4 445 Our signature finishing hole is a par 4 that speaks for itself. The elevated tee provides a spectacular view and a demanding shot.
