Hole #5 - This 567 yard dogleg left par 5 is a challenging three shot hole from the back tees. Favor the center-right of the fairway on the drive as pine trees can block you out on the left hand side. Deep bunkers protect the front left and right sides of this two-tiered green. Be careful of the OB stakes which lurk behind the green.

Tips: The big hitters can take the shortcut up the left hand side, but unless they reach the middle of the fairway, there is no realistic shot at reaching the green in 2.If the tees are back, you are about 587 yards from the green. Ignore the card, I have stepped it off. From the back tees, you hit through a chute with a very tenuous tree right of the tee on your right. This tree protects the 4th green from getting pummeled with golf balls. If you leave your ball on the left, you may have a difficult time reaching the green in 3 and will probably arrive there in 4 or 5. Play smart. If you find yourself in this position, take your lumps and get it back in the fairway as far to the right hand side as possible. You have a much better chance of making par out in the fairway than trying a miraculous shot. I suggest using your 3-wood off the tee to exercise control and position, then use a club that will reach the top of the hill and leave you about 150 yards from the pin. From 150 yards down to 100 yards is a downhill slope, which proves to make the approach shot very difficult. Your second shot should position your in your wheelhouse. I like to be about 85 yards from the green, so that I can hit a full lob wedge. If you feel better hitting your 150-165 yard club, then leave on the top of the hill for your approach shot. This 2-tiered green is extremely well bunkered and there is out-of-bounds 5 yards off the back of the green. A left trap, and trees guard the left and right. If you have a back pin placement, make sure your ball does not go flying off. You need to have the ability to stop the ball on a dime for a back pin. A front pin is usually very easy as you can use the slope to stop your ball. I usually play for the middle of the green and try and make a 10-20 foot putt. The putts are relatively flat with a little break to the front of the green. Birdie this hole and pick a stroke up on the field.

Hole #6 - This 384 yard par four dogleg right will entice golfers with its seemingly vast fairway. Be careful, the fairway slopes severely from left to right. A drive down the center/left of the fairway will set up a short/mid iron approach.

Tips: There are 2 approaches that can be used on this hole. For the golfers that generally play the ball from left to right, you should start your shot about 10 left of the left woods and let the natural fade bring the ball back to the middle and hope it stays in the fairway due to the left to right fairway slope. It is severe. The golfers that move the ball from right to left, should start the ball down the middle and draw it against the slope keeping the ball on the left side of the fairway. From the tee, it will almost look like you are in the left rough, but when you arrive at your ball it will be in the left center to center of the fairway.
Don't pull it into the woods trying to overcompensate, as you can only chip it out from that point and hope to make 5. On your approach shot, keep in mind that the ball will move from left to right due to the slope. If you want the ball to avoid trouble, aim at the middle of the green for a right hand pin, or at the left side of the green for a left and middle pin. Although many people feel this is a great birdie hole, don't leave the hole with bogey due to poor course management. A 3-wood is always a good play off this tee.
