Hole 1
The first hole challenges the golfer to choose an accurate distance and line in order to stay on the fairway. From the tee, the green is far out of site and the dogleg to the right is difficult to judge. A medium-length par four, Hole #1 gives the golfer a good indication of what the rest of the course is like.
Hole 2
Hole #2 plays along the side of the valley. The par four dogleg left makes a green-seeking drive tough as thick prairie grass, brush, and a bunker to the right of the green stand in your way. The safest play is to drive for the corner of the dogleg, keeping in mind that the fairway slopes down to the left.
Hole 3
If you like water, you’ll love Hole #3. With the river running in front of and behind the green and a greenside bunker, placing the tee-shot can be tricky. This is a short par three, and it plays downhill with a fairway drop-zone before the riverbank. #3 is one of the most deceptive holes on the course.
Hole 4
Hole #4 is the golfer’s first real chance to pull out the driver. A sweeping left-hand dogleg brings this par five around the river bend and between thick woods. A long drive has to be well-placed or it could end up in the bush or out of bounds.
Hole 5
Hole #5 is a straightforward but challenging par four. The fairway is bounded by the river on both sides and the green is just out of sight to the left. A conservative tee-shot is usually best, but driving the green isn’t impossible.
Hole 6
The sixth tee provides a clear, enticing view of the green. A drive, however, has to cross the bend in the river and avoid heavy brush on the left. Hole #6 is moderately long, but shot-placement is extremely important.
Hole 7
Hole #7 is the most difficult hole on the course. A long and uphill par four, Hole #7 forces the golfer to avoid the river on the left and the reservoir on the right. The river crosses the fairway with 100 yards left to the green, and the two-tiered green will make putting tricky.
Hole 8
The second par three on the course, Hole #8 is all uphill. Getting on the green isn’t too hard if you can avoid the greenside bunker, but the huge green makes putting difficult.
Hole 9
The home stretch. Hole #9 is a straight par four, but it plays along the side of the hill, and leads to the most difficult green on the course. A ravine cutting across the fairway means you’ll have to choose your tee shot carefully.
