HOLE DESCRIPTIONS FOR VARIOUS ITEMS:

HOLE 1: Red Stakes left. The creek area below 1 tee box is a penalty area.

HOLE 2: Out of bounds left and long over the green. There is also a screen guarding #3 tee box. If it is in your way, you may bring it back (line of flight) until you have an open shot.

HOLE 3: See local rules above.

HOLE 4: If you lose your ball to the right in the trees or pond, drop from point of entry and incur a one shot penalty.

HOLE 5: Out of bounds left. Long grass to the right will be considered red stakes and you can take relief from the entry point with one stroke. There is also a pond/small creek in front of each tee box. . Note, the white tee box has the incorrect yardage on the marker sign. I would make sure they find the correct distance with a rangefinder or a golf app.

HOLE 6: Pond in front. Play as a red hazard.

HOLE 7: Par 3 with a creek and weeds in front with a fence running behind and to the right of the green. Fence is out of bounds and the player will have to re-hit. The player cannot get relief away from the fence. The creek and weeds will be considered a red penalty area. Protective screen in front of 8 tee box---player gets relief no closer to the hole within 1 club length.

HOLE 8: Out of bounds way right and long.

HOLE 9: Only significant area to note is long over #7 tee box. We consider the road (path) over the tee box as out of bounds (you will see the white stakes).
