Hole 17
473 Yards Par 5
This Hole Curves Right
though NOT a True Dog-Leg.
Water crosses the Fairway 275 yards off the Tee Box and
runs the length of the Hole from tee Box to Green with
Trees blocking the direct path to the Water.
Trees line heavily on the the Left side and Trees sit
Right at the Curve on the Cart Path.
The Smart play for this Hole is to play the shot up the
Right side of the Fairway, but the Trees do block it for
a clean hit.
A Bunker sits Short Left Front Middle Green guarding the
approach.
The Green slopes Back to Front. |

Hole 18
378 Yards
Par 4
Plays Very Slightly Downhill
From the Tee Shot this Hole
plays very slightly Downhill while it is not overtly a
factor.
There are 2 Bunkers sitting Left and Right of Cart Path
50 yards Short of the Green in the Right side of the
Fairway with a Large Tree just Long of the Bunker, Short
of the Green.
If the ball is playing on the Beach, the shot out can be
hampered by the Tree with some Low-Lying Branches that
love to catch the ball. The Tree is TOO Close and TOO
Tall to fly it over.
Water sits Long Left of the Fairway but can be a huge
factor if the Drive from the Tee is sent into the Left
side.
The Green slopes Back to Front.
