Hole by hole
Hole 1Par 4 · 347 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: 3 bunkers.
Fairway first. Rough keeps only 84% of your distance and stops the ball dead, so a shorter, straighter tee shot often finishes further up. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 2Par 4 · 441 yards
Wind: 12 mph, helping. On the hole: The arm, Water, 2 bunkers.
The arm sweeps a stretch of the hole and knocks the ball clear. You can't shoot around it, so land short of it or beyond it. A following wind adds carry and roll here.
Hole 3Par 5 · 571 yards
Wind: 11 mph, right to left. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, 2 bunkers, Leaf pile.
The arm sweeps a stretch of the hole and knocks the ball clear. You can't shoot around it, so land short of it or beyond it. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.

Wind: 13 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: A gust band, Water, 2 bunkers, Leaf pile.
A band of fast air crosses the hole. Fly over it or stay under it — what you can't do is hang the ball in it. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.

Hole 6Par 3 · 179 yards
Wind: 15 mph, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 2 bunkers.
179 yards, playing about 176 with the wind — on paper a 6 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 7Par 4 · 416 yards
Wind: 15 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: The arm, Cart path, Water, 3 bunkers.

Hole 8Par 3 · 161 yards
Wind: 14 mph, helping, right to left. On the hole: Island green, A gust band.
All carry and no bailout. Take enough club for the middle of the green — short is wet, and the thin collar only just holds. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
Hole 9Par 3 · 183 yards
Wind: 15 mph, right to left. On the hole: Cart path, 1 bunker.
183 yards, playing about 177 with the wind — on paper a 6 iron. Aim at the front half: the green rolls out. Allow for the wind pushing the ball left.
