Yardage: Gold (255), Blue (255), White (250), Red (245)

At 250 yds from the White tees, the first hole looks like an easy par 4 and a great way to start your round. But it can be deceiving. The upslope on the far side of the valley may keep your ball from rolling as far as you might like. Coming down the fairway there is room on the right for error but watch out for the sand traps on the left. As you approach the green there is a sand trap on the right and the green slopes off sharply on the left front corner

A longer par 4 this time and an intimidating tee shot. Trees line the out of bounds on the left and the hedge and more trees on the right make this a very narrow tee shot. But once you're past the garden things open up giving you lots of room for your second shot onto the green.There are no sand traps on this hole and if you land in the garden it's a free lift. The green is sloped from right to left so aim for the right side of the green with your approach shot.

This is an easy hole if you land on the green. If not, there may be a lot of trouble awaiting you. Sand traps on the left and right as you approach the green welcome a lot of balls. And if you miss the traps you may be down the hill to the left or up against the maintenance shed on the right. It's also a two tier green split front to back so make sure you notice where the flag is located. If you can't see the flag at all then it may be hidden behind the blue spruce, which can make it nearly impossible to get close to the hole if you're hitting from the red tees.

This is a long par 4 with a dog leg to the left and a number of obstacles along the way. If you are teeing off from the reds you get to stand in the shade of a beautiful maple in the middle of the fairway. But if you're hitting from the blue or gold tees you have to get over, around or under that maple. Trying to go throught it doesn't work so well. Once you're past the maple, there is a sand trap jutting out from the left awaiting you at the 150 marker where the fairway turns to the left. Then at 75 yards, out there is a relaxing pond and fountain on the right which you may get to enjoy close up if your ball goes into it. The green is elevated and guarded by sand traps on the left, right and rear. No wonder this is the rated the toughest hole on the course.

At last a par 5 where you can open up and let the ball fly!  Well maybe not. There are a few things to look out for as you go down the fairway. First of all, there is a pond on the left full of bullrushes. If your ball goes in there, forget it. There is a nice landing spot before the dog leg. Try to get as far left and long as possible but stop short of the trees. It opens up again after the dog leg but then there is a badly battered cedar tree right in the middle of the fairway which can hinder your shot to the green if you get too close. The green is long and narrow and protected on the left by a large maple. Keeping your ball on the green can be difficult because it is so narrow. But don't worry, there is a sand trap in back to catch your ball if you go too far

Now this looks like a straight and easy par 4 but looks can be deceiving.  If you are hitting from the gold tees, you may find the trees on your right are blocking your view of the green creating in effect a dog leg. From the tee box it's all down hill until you pass the 100 yard marker then it rises sharply all the way to the green making it difficult to judge what club to use for your second shot. The green is not very big and it is protected by sand traps on the front left and right. If you hit your ball too far you may be facing a tough down hill chip with the danger of running off the front of the green.

This looks like fun, a double dog leg! When hitting from the gold or blue tees, you naturally want to keep close to the trees on the right or even go over them. But watch out for the long grass and fairway sand traps on the right. From the red or white tees the first dog leg is eliminated and life is easier. At the 150 marker, the fairway turns left and it's a straight run into the green which is protected by sand traps on the front left and right as well as across the back.

Hole 8 has the most beautiful view on the golf course. Enjoy it while you can.  From the tee box it is all down hill. Even the green slopes away from you from front to back and left to right. It's easy to roll your ball down to the green but getting it to stop on the green is difficult. Members know to aim for the front left corner of the green and let it trickle down. Sand traps on the left will keep your ball from going under the fence and another sand trap on the right front of the green collects a lot of balls.

Yardage: Gold (343), Blue (337), White (331), Red (264)

Hole 9 is all about the hill. There's even a periscope near the top to help you see that nobody is on the green for your approach shot. Hitting down the left side of the fairway bypasses some of the hill but can leave you on an awkward side slope for your next shot. Up by the periscope, the ground levels off making your shot into the green easier. If you can't see the green, members will tell you to aim for the Canadian flag. They claim that on that trajectory the ball will roll right down the throat onto the green. The green is long and narrow with 2 sand traps on the right and a sharp drop off on the left.
