	Hole 1. The opening drive is from an elevated tee, with water down the length of the right side, and out of bounds well left of the trees on the hill. A shot of about 220 yards will set up a short iron approach to a narrow, deep green.
	Hole 2. A forced carry across a ravine and up a hill needs to be long enough, about 240 yards, to find the fairway. There's still an uphill approach that requires hitting one to two clubs more to a two-tiered green, which slopes back to front, and is guarded by a large bunker on the right front.
	Hole 3. A long, up-and-over-the-hill par 5 with a dogleg left the last 80 yards. Off the tee, avoid the bunker in the left rough at the top of the hill, or use the slope from the right to keep the ball in play. Then, choose a good line for the second shot to set up a wedge to the green. Bunkers and a severe left slope guard in front, and a large bunker protects the bail-out area to the right of the green, setting up a great risk/reward for those who go for the green in two.
	Hole 4. Another forced carry of 240 yards is required to reach the flat area on top of the hill before this fairway turns 80 degrees left to an elevated par 4 green. A wide landing area leaves you with a 100 to 145 yard approach shot, but a shorter drive rolls back down the slope to set up a difficult approach up the hill and possibly over the tree-lined corner of the dogleg.
	Hole 5. A slightly uphill par 3 to a crowned green. Swirling winds and bunkers left and right make club selection critical.
	Hole 6. A dogleg left par 5 with out of bounds all the way along the left side requires a straight tee shot. Miss the reachable bunker at the left side of the corner, and the fairway turns and begins a 200-yard uphill climb. A well hit second shot will be left between the bunkers, leaving a short iron approach to a well-bunkered green that runs away from you and slopes back to front on the right side from the middle of the green to the left side the green slopes left and down
	Hole 7. A double downhill dogleg left par 4, with out of bounds once again protecting the left side. The large bunker at the corner should be avoided, but it can be carried due to an elevation change of around 88 feet from tee to green. A well placed tee shot to the upper fairway leaves a downhill approach shot to a well bunkered, deep green.
	Hole 8. A downhill par 3 to a two-tiered green, with the back half of the green being the lower level.  Bunkers right and left combine with the slope of the green to make an up-and-down par very difficult.
	Hole 9. A dogleg right par 4 around a water hazard, where even more water comes into play left on the second shot. The green is large, with little room to miss.
	Hole 10. A tee shot of 250 yards easily carries the water in front of you and ensures a level lie for the second shot on this slight dogleg left par 4. Close to the green, the fairway runs down and away, then rises sharply to a green only 21 yards deep, nestled in the side of a hill. Distance control is crucial on the approach shot, as you tangle with bunkers left and right and trouble short and over the green.
	Hole 11. On this dogleg right par 5, out of bounds runs the length of the hole on the right with the prevailing slope in that direction as well. Longer hitters will find the lowest section of the fairway, with the upslope starting at about 190 yards from the green. The 3-tiered green runs only 31 yards from front left to back right, and rough surrounds the entire putting surface and collar. Additionally, two deep bunkers guard the right side of the upslope, and another two bunkers wait at the right side of the green.
	Hole 12. A beautiful but treacherous straight away par 4. Use the slope from the right to play away from the three water hazards down the left side. A ball finding the right side of the fairway also opens up the front of the green, which nestles behind a portion of the greenside pond.
	Hole 13. The signature hole. This relatively short, downhill par 3, is as captivating in its beauty as in its deceptively sloping green. Pay close attention to which way the wind blows through the gap…and enjoy the incredible view, too!
	Hole 14. On this dogleg right par 4, the generous landing area gives the impression the hole goes the other way. Any tee shot that avoids the boulders and clears the valley will have only a wedge shot up the hill and over a deep bunker to a large, rolling green. Beware the out of bounds closely guarding the right side.
	Hole 15. Another fun up-and-over-the-hill dogleg left, this time a par 4, and probably the most demanding tee shot since number 2. With out of bounds in the trees to the left and over the cart path to the right, accuracy must be coupled with length in order to negotiate the corner. Two large bunkers challenge those wishing to shorten the hole down the left side, and bunkers right and left protect a three sectioned green, making it very difficult to keep the ball below the cup.
	Hole 16. A straight, downhill par 4 that plays much shorter than the 426 yards on the scorecard. Out of bounds to the right, and a steep slope to the left, make the tee shot extremely important. A downhill lie to a green that slopes away front left to back right makes club selection vital to success on this hole.
	Hole 17. A beautiful, 203 yard, downhill par 3 over water, with bunkers left, right, and fronting another multilevel green. Choose your club perfectly!
	Hole 18. Still going downhill, the drive on this dogleg right par 5 must cross another gap with a pond at the bottom. Out of bounds waits far left, but the primary concern is the bunker that narrows the right side of the landing area. The second shot, down one last hill, should be played well left of the tree-covered hill on the right to set up a short approach to a small green guarded by four bunkers on the left, and water lining the front, right, and back.
