One of our more blind tee shots. Fairway is hard to see from the back tees. You want to aim further left than you think over the trees, or you could end up right of the cart path with a difficult second shot. This green has some tricky slope as well.

Handicap: 1
Blue

424
White

This hole has red hazard running down both sides, as well as a creek going across you must lay up behind, making it one of the longer second shots into a par 4 on the course if you play it safe. Hardest hole on the course according to the scorecard.

This Island par 3 looks very difficult from the tee, especially with the new updated tee boxes that can extend the yardage way further than the scorecard states. This green is large, but with a predominantly cross wind it is difficult to hit.

Hole #10 - Par 4

Handicap: 14
Blue

Dogleg right with out of bounds on the left and trees lining the right side. Hitting your tee sheet down the left side of the fairway makes reaching the green in 2 possible. Grass bunkers on the right and left side of the green make getting up and down very difficult.
