Men's Handicap: 13 Women's Handicap: 11	Hole   1 Par   4
The 1st hole is a medium-length par-4. The tee shot landing area is framed by bunkers on both sides, and the green features enough sloping to make a two-putt anything but automatic.

2
Men's Handicap: 9 Women's Handicap: 5	Hole   2 Par   4
Hole #2 is the shortest par-4 on the course from the members' tees, but is no 'gimme'. The approach shot is hit uphill to a green that’s blind from the fairway and slopes from front to back.

3
Men's Handicap: 11 Women's Handicap: 3	Hole   3 Par   5
The 3rd hole is a par-5, reachable in two by the long hitter due to a downhill second shot. Depending on the hole location, it may be preferable to layup.

4
Men's Handicap: 15 Women's Handicap: 15	Hole   4 Par   3
Hole #4 is a par-3 that can play anywhere from 120 to just over 200 yards, but the green is receptive to a variety of clubs.
•197 •185 •179 •168 •139

5
Men's Handicap: 5 Women's Handicap: 9	Hole   5 Par   4
Trying to cut off too much of the dogleg right can bring trees, a fairway bunker, and out-of-bounds into play. A good tee shot is rewarded with an approach to a wide but shallow green.
•422 •402 •390 •350 •297

6
Men's Handicap: 7 Women's Handicap: 1	Hole   6 Par   5
The semi-blind tee shot needs to be placed in the left half of the fairway should the player want to go for this par-5 in two. The green is elevated to the player from the fairway.
•525 •510 •497 •462 •415

7
Men's Handicap: 17 Women's Handicap: 17	Hole   7 Par   3
The 7th hole plays slightly uphill and usually into the prevailing wind, making the tee shot play slightly longer than the yardage indicates. Club selection is crucial here.
•193 •166 •138 •133 •126

8
Men's Handicap: 1 Women's Handicap: 13	Hole   8 Par   4
Hole #8 starts the stretch of four consecutive outstanding par-4's than can make or break a round. It plays straight away but long, especially from the tips, which stretch to over 450 yards.
•459 •437 •425 •397 •337

9
Men's Handicap: 3 Women's Handicap: 7	Hole   9 Par   4
The 9th hole requires an accurate tee shot to avoid a fairway bunker at the corner of the dogleg right. A swale in front of the green collects approach shots not hit quite far enough.
•453 •420 •414 •368 •319

10
Men's Handicap: 6 Women's Handicap: 12	Hole   10 Par   4
Hole #10 places a premium on the tee shot - often less than a driver to a fairway framed by two bunkers, water left, and OB right.
•422 •399 •361 •322 •296

11
Men's Handicap: 2 Women's Handicap: 14	Hole   11 Par   4
The 11th hole features an angled tee shot over water to a fairway with mounds on both sides. The second shot is hit with a medium-to-long iron to a wide, relatively flat green.
•451 •439 •407 •359 •299

12
Men's Handicap: 12 Women's Handicap: 18	Hole   12 Par   3
This par-3 is the only hole at CNGCC without any bunkers. Tee shots missed short or to the left bring a water hazard into play, and a shot hit long means a chip to a green sloping away.
•196 •196 •181 •167 •93

13
Men's Handicap: 8 Women's Handicap: 6	Hole   13 Par   5
This strategic par-5 sees trees all the way up the right side of the hole, and a series of fairway bunkers along the left side. Proper positioning of the layup is important.
•568 •525 •521 •458 •417

14
Men's Handicap: 18 Women's Handicap: 16	Hole   14 Par   3
Hole #14 is the shortest par-3 on the course from the members’ tees, but any tee shot that comes up short will likely end up in one of three bunkers all placed in front of the green.
•194 •155 •142 •132 •123

15
Men's Handicap: 10 Women's Handicap: 8	Hole   15 Par   4
The 15th hole is a medium-length par-4 with trees on both the left and right to impede the second shot. The approach is uphill to the green, usually with a short iron.
•391 •382 •368 •364 •324

16
Men's Handicap: 4 Women's Handicap: 10	Hole   16 Par   4
The challenges on #16 include the prevailing wind and the green, which runs at a left to right diagonal to the player standing in the fairway.
•447 •417 •401 •396 •315

17
Men's Handicap: 14 Women's Handicap: 2	Hole   17 Par   5
The 17th hole is the last par-5 on the course, and is reachable in two for the big hitter. Beware of the ‘hidden’ bunker along the right side of the fairway that will catch the layup.
•530 •501 •486 •436 •384

18
Men's Handicap: 16 Women's Handicap: 4	Hole   18 Par   4
The closing hole's fairway rises to a crest around 110 yards from the center of the green. Tee shots hit over the top of the hill risk rolling through the fairway and having trees block the approach.
