A short but strategic opener. This relatively straight par-4 rewards a solid tee shot to a fairway that can narrow near the landing zone. Keep your tee shot centered to set up a mid-iron approach to a receptive green that favors accuracy.

A demanding hole where accuracy and length both matters. The tee shot should favor the wider part of the fairway to allow a confident second. Depending on tees, this can play as a long par-4 or short par-5 — either way, a strong approach is needed to avoid trouble around the green.

Another short par-4 that plays slightly uphill. The fairway is generous, but errant drives can leave awkward second shots. Take advantage of the drive to leave yourself a comfortable approach to a green guarded by subtle contours. 

The first real test: longer than the opening holes and typically a tougher scoring challenge. Length off the tee is rewarded; positioning is key to hitting the green in regulation. Club selection into the green matters here. 

A mid-length par-3 that may look friendly but has some trouble around the green. Wind and green slopes make club selection important; missing long or short can leave tricky up-and-downs.

A classic short par-3 that looks simple on paper but can bite if you misjudge the wind or leave your tee shot short. The green is firm and narrow, demanding a precise iron or hybrid to score well. 

Depending on tee selection this can be a long par-4 or a reachable par-5 for longer hitters. A well-placed drive sets up a second shot that must navigate strategically placed bunkers and contouring fairway areas to get closer to the elevated green. 

The longest hole on the front 9 and a true par-5 where big hitters can go for it in two. However, hazards and well-placed bunkers protect the green complex — so an aggressive play must be balanced with smart course management. 

The finishing hole of the front 9 tests consistency. A well-placed tee shot in the fairway opens up the second shot to a slightly elevated green. Accuracy into the green is crucial — a good par here sets you up nicely for the loop or turn.
