Tee Insight:This course delivers repeating risk-reward on drivable short par fours mixed with precision tests on longer par fours and reachable par fives where handicap-ranked tough holes amplify scoring trouble. Players face constant tee decisions balancing aggression for birdies against safety to dodge bogeys in a layout with high overall difficulty.
