The par is 72. Blue Tees are 6504 yards and the slope is 119. White Tees are 6171 yards and the slope is 115. Gold Tees are 5364 yards and the slope is 122. Red Tees are 4990 yards and the slope is 120. This course, which dates to 1923, is not long or brutal. It's a Donald Ross course, so if you play well, you score well. Luck is not a factor on a Ross course. You have to earn a good score. The par-5s are short, running from 475 to 520 yards. The par-3s are different in length and character. There is one long par-4, but there is also one that is only 287 yards from the Blue tees. This is a private golf course. Soft spikes only.
