TIME: First tee time is at 10:00am. We have 5 tee times to accommodate (20 players). I highly recommend everyone pay their green fees and cart at the clubhouse no later than 9:15am due to the number of people in our group and the time it takes to check-in. I would like for everyone to meet at the putting green located next to the tee box on Hole 1 no later than 9:45. We will then create the foursomes and decide the order each group tees off.
Range ball tokens: I am working on getting FREE range ball tokens for everyone that shows up early to hit balls. I went to the course today at noon to inquire about getting free tokens but the Golf Pro was not there for me to talk to. If I am able to get free tokens I will hand them out after you have paid your green fees. If I cannot get FREE tokens the tokens are located in a machine at the driving range. $2.00 a token.
Rental Clubs: $20 a set. Men’s right hand – 5 sets of clubs Men’s left – 3 sets Ladies right hand – 2 sets Ladies left hand -1 set
Green Fees: $45.00 (I will talk with the Pro tomorrow to see if I can get any price break on the green fee.)
Clubhouse: They have balls, tees, gloves, hats and towels for sale.
Food and Beverage: Two trees restaurant serves breakfast and lunch and has food, beverage and bar services.

Golf course tips:
#1 Par 5 – 506 yds
Prevailing wind will be in your face. Dog-leg, (slightly to the right). Aim tee at the water tower. This is a “3 shot” hole. Green slopes back to front.
#2 Par 4 – 365 yds
65 degree dogleg to the left. Favor the right side of the tee. Second shot will be slightly up hill.
#3 Par 3 – 139 yds
Pedestal Green and small target area, make this green tough to hit.
#4 Par 4 – 392 yds
Prevailing wind in your face. Take enough club for your approach shot.
#5 Par 5 – 493 yds
Prevailing wind left-to-right. This is a 3 shot hole with second shot a “lay-up.” Third shot will be over water. Favor the right side of the fairway off the tee. Green slopes from back to front.
#6 Par 3 – 166 yds
Tee shot, over water–Prevailing wind will be right-to-left. Front third of green is severely sloped back to front
#7 Par 4 – 355 yds
Prevailing wind will be right-to-left. The second shot is to a slightly elevated green–Be sure to take enough club.
#8 Par 4 – 413 yds
Prevailing wind will be at your back. This is the #1 handicap hole. Large green with some undulation make it a good “two putt” hole.
#9 Par 4 – 383 yds
Prevailing wind, Left-to Right. Fairway accepts tee shots nicely. Favor the left side of the fairway. Remember to take enough club for shot in to slightly elevated green.
#10 Par 4 – 354 yds
Prevailing wind from right to left. A fade shot is a preferred type shot. It sets up for a mid-sized iron approach shot. Green is flat, accept a high shot nicely.
#11 Par 4 – 322 yds
Prevailing wind from left to right. Tee shot favors the right side of the fairway – away from the bunker. Second shot is a mid iron into a mid-sized undulating green. The green is mid size and slopes from front to back. Will accept a high approach shot nicely.
#12 Par 3 – 144 yds
Tee shot over water, must carry approximately 140 yards, anything short is subject to roll back into the water. Green is bowl shaped with some undulation.
#13 Par 5 – 485 yds
Can be reached in two shots for big hitters. Normally a three shot hole, which will definitely favor the right side away from the bunker on the left side of the fairway. Anything left, the trees become a major factor on your third shot. Big Green that slopes from back to front.
#14 Par 4 – 333 yds
Prevailing wind will be in your face. Tee shot must be accurate to avoid both side bunkering. Shot from fairway to the green will be up hill to an elevated green.
#15 Par 3 – 158 yds
Prevailing wind will be in your face. Take enough club–green accepts long iron shots. Fairway bunker should not come in to play.
#16 Par 4 – 370 yds
Prevailing wind will be in your face. Favor right side of the tee- Second shot will be over water to a green that is sloped back to front.
#17 Par 5 – 438 yds
Prevailing wind will be to your back. Dog-leg to the left. Off the tee, avoid the fairway bunker on the right. Second shot should favor the left side or left portion of the green. Right side of the green side bunker is hidden, but can come in to play. Birdie hole!!
#18 Par 4 – 346 yds
Prevailing wind will be to your back. Avoid 3 small “pot bunkers” off the tee. Green does open up from the left side. Also, it is farther away than you think. Take enough club.
