Pro Tips
| The course opens with a straightaway par 4 with native grass on each side of the fairway. Strategically placed bunkers on the right must also be avoided. Aiming for the 150 post off the tee is a good play. The second shot will play downhill with total elevation change from tee-to-green of about 50 feet. |

Pro Tips
| A tee shot that lands near the 150 post sets up the best approach, as going too far will result in a severely downhill lie. The approach plays downhill and must carry and arroyo on the way to the green that’s wider than it is deep. |

Pro Tips
| Fairway bunkers on the right and water on the left mean an accurate tee shot is the key to this dogleg left par 5. The landing area is generous for a lay-up, however, players should favor the left side as the fairway slopes from left-to-right. When going for the green in two, favoring the left side will help as this small, two-tiered green slopes from left-to-right and back-to-front. It’s also guarded by water on the right and bunkers on the left. |

Pro Tips

Pro Tips
| The thirteenth is the signature hole and the beginning of a challenging four-hole stretch. It features the most difficult tee shot on the course, where players must avoid the fairway bunkers down the right with a fairway that slopes right-to-left with an arroyo running the entire right side. Players must carry the arroyo on the second shot to a second fairway. Avoiding the fairway bunker on the left side of the second fairway is important. The third shot also must carry the arroyo on the way to this two-tiered green. |

Pro Tips
| The tee shot on this par 4 should favor the right side to avoid the two hidden bunkers in the center of the fairway. An arroyo crosses the fairway on the second shot on the way to a green that’s also guarded by the arroyo in front. Two bunkers and two beautiful Cottonwood trees also protect the green and must be split to get a good look at birdie. |

Pro Tips
| The closing hole is a slight dogleg left par 4 with water running down the left side from tee-to-green. The aiming point off the tee is the bunker on the right. Longer hitters can challenge the left side leaving a very short second. The green is a multi-level green, so being on the right side is important. |
