What to Expect

Pay attention to the strategically placed bunkers and natural water features, as they can turn a good round into a frustrating one if you're not careful. It's wise to favor accuracy over distance — a well-placed tee shot is crucial on many holes. Be prepared for some elevation changes, especially on the greens, which can be deceptively quick.
