	This is a tough starting hole with an elevated green and an intimating pond lining the tee box and the fairway. Add one or maybe two clubs to reach the up hill green.
	The longest par 5 on the course and usually 3 shots to reach the green. Keep the tee shot in the fairway or you may land in the trees that line the fairway and have to punch out to the fairway. Out of bounds lines the left side of the fairway. A large flat green yields many birdies.
	A straight par 4 with large pines on the left and right sides of the fairway. A nice drive leaves a short iron to the green and a possible birdie putt.
	A short par 4 with a tough green to land your second shot. Driver may put you over the green and leave you with a difficult up hill chip. A 3 wood or long iron sets you up for a short iron to a sloping green. Hit your tee shot right and you are in the valley of the doom with a tough chip back up the hill to a small postage stamp green. Hit your tee shot left and you are in the pine forest. Blue tee makes for a difficult tee shot to a narrow landing area.
	Another short par 4 hitting out of a narrow shoot up the hill to a narrow fairway. Pines line both sides of the fairway with a pond lurking to the right of the fairway. A straight tee shot rewards the golfer with a short second shot and a possible birdie on the scorecard.
	Another tough par 3 over the creek with an inviting sand trap guarding the right side of the green. Numerous difficult pin positions to chose from on this green. Place the ball in the center of the green and take your 3 and move on to the next hole.
	Signature hole with a hill top view of the large green after a perfect tee shot. This green is guarded by water on the front and right side of the green. Don’t hit a perfect tee shot and a bogey is sure to find it’s way onto your scorecard.
	This green is drivable from the white tees. Miss the fairway to the left and you have a difficult up hill chip over a sand trap. Miss your tee shot right and you have a difficult down hill chip to a narrow green protected by two sand traps and a large Maple tree. The narrow undulating green will surely make you tremble over your second putt from 3 feet away.
	Considered one of the most challenging golf holes in the Tri-City area. This dogleg left plays different from each tee box. Play the blue tees and you may be singing the blues at the turn. Play the white tees and a perfect 3 wood or low iron over the corner gives you a mid-iron to a narrow green, don’t go to far though, a pond protects this hole from the long ball hitter. Play the red tees and a nice drive leaves you with a short iron to the green. A pond on the right and Swan Creek on the left protects the green from stray second shots. Feel lucky if you finish with a par, a bogey or the same ball you started with on this hole.
