What to Expect
When you're out on the course, expect a solid test of your game, particularly with the well-manufactured zoysia fairways that can roll out well.

Beginners may find it moderately challenging, so a comfortable handicap range around 10-20 will probably enjoy the course the most—it's perfect for honing your skills.
