Black 381   Gold 371   Silver 360   Burgundy 277   Handicap   17

A 170-foot drop-off provides the dramatic start to an 18-hole thrill ride. A few historic courses exist today whose first hole begins with a significant drop in elevation, but none as dramatic as this! The creek and the bunkering on the valley floor frame the landing area and cause most players to think twice about bringing out the big stick. But, with a favorable wind, the long-hitter can attempt to carry the creek and end up putting for the second shot. The smart play is a fairway wood or long iron off the tee.
