Hole 1
Our opening hole skirts the wetland with the fairway dog legging left to right away from it. The green hides behind a bunker nestled between a group of trees. Long hitters can go for the green while shorter hitters should play it safe. Play the westerly winds as the fairway is more generous than it looks.
