Local "Insider" Tips
- Watch the Elevation: The terrain here can be deceiving with its subtle changes in elevation. Pay close attention to your yardage as the ball often flies differently on the uphill and downhill holes.
- Greens Break Towards the Valley: Most of the greens tend to break towards the nearby valleys, so trust your instincts and aim accordingly to sink those crucial putts.
- Beware of the Woodland Creatures: Keep an eye out for the local wildlife, particularly on the back nine. Distractions can come from everywhere, so stay focused!
