Here with only a small landing area and any missed approach of the green will result in difficult shots to this elevated and sloping green. Black 534 Green 502 White 502 Combo 502 Gold 430 Par Gentlemen 5 Ladies 5 Handicap Gentlemen 1 Ladies 1 Hole #3 A straight 3 wood to fairway wood tee shot is all that is needed here to provide you a mid- to short iron approach uphill to a well protected green with bunkers left and right. However, watch out for the picturesque water feature on the right, which can come into play on your second shot into the green. The elevated green can be difficult to hit and even harder to hold.
Black 420 Green 392 White 360 Combo 360 Gold 324 Par Gentlemen 4 Ladies 4 Handicap Gentlemen 11 Ladies 5 Hole #4 Kanawaki's Signature Hole and one of the most beautiful holes will test your course management skills. This downhill dogleg right par four offers all golfers the opportunity to go for the green or lay up. A large tree on the right side of the fairway is the ideal aiming point. Anything missed to the right of the green is a lost ball.
The false front on the green makes club selection paramount. Birdies can be had with the correct approach but so can big numbers! Black 418 Green 383 White 383 Combo 383 Gold 351 Par Gentlemen 4 Ladies 4 Handicap Gentlemen 13 Ladies 7 Hole #5 Here is the longest hole on the course. A generous landing area awaits the tee shot that avoids the three bunkers on the right side of the fairway and the dense forest on the left.
The large green is receptive for a good second shot however, stay below the flag! Large bunkers protect the green front and sides and can be tricky if your approach is not well executed. Black 583 Green 574 White 531 Combo 531 Gold 468 Par Gentlemen 5 Ladies 5 Handicap Gentlemen 3 Ladies 3 Hole #6 The first hole of the most difficult stretch on the course tests your skill off the tee. A driver down the left side will give you the best angle into the green, but be sure to avoid the water hazard that lines the entire left side until the cart path.
An accurate shot into this shallow green with pot bunkers short and trouble long is a necessity. A par on this hole is a great score. Black 366 Green 346 White 346 Combo 346 Gold 289 Par Gentlemen 4 Ladies 4 Handicap Gentlemen 17 Ladies 13 Hole #7 A nice hole awaits you with a straight forward tee shot minimally longer than the previous hole. Trees guard both sides of the fairway, so an accurate tee shot is paramount especially for the longer hitters.
The approach to a generous green won't be too difficult unless you need to negotiate the deep pot bunker on the front right hand side. Black 363 Green 353 White 333 Combo 333 Gold 281 Par Gentlemen 4 Ladies 4 Handicap Gentlemen 15 Ladies 15 Hole #8 Precision from the tee is the key to a good score here. A dogleg left, and a generous landing area will allow short irons into a green effectively protected by overhanging trees, a large bunker on the left side, and out of bounds close right. This well protected green will be difficult to hit with your approach; however, left of the hole is preferred.
Black 411 Green 385 White 355 Combo 355 Gold 294 Par Gentlemen 4 Ladies 4 Handicap Gentlemen 9 Ladies 9 Hole #9 A nice finishing hole for the first nine that gives you the option of hitting from as many as three different tees. One must avoid the fairway bunkers and out of bounds down the right side. It's a short to mid-iron shot coming into the green, which sits slightly elevated and is best attacked from the left side. This green has several breaks and slopes adding to the difficulty.
