The green complexes are medium sized, with some sloping putting surfaces, and the tree-lined terrain from tee to green presents plentiful landing zones. Golfers will often be playing from uneven lies, with the ball below or above the feet, or side-hill. Bunkers are strategically placed greenside, and numerous holes with fairway traps demand accurate placement off the tee.

Colored coded flags indicate the front, middle or back pin placements, and 100, 150 and 200 markers as well as sprinkler heads provide estimated yardages along the well manicured fairways on all par fours and fives. There are 4 par threes here, and they are beautiful designs.
