Grass:

Greens: Bent Grass (PENN A-4)
Tees: Paspalum
Fairways & Rough: Bermuda

Signature Hole:

Hole #6 is our signature hole with its intimidating tee shot with out of bounds right and water left to a narrow fairway. The intimidation does not end there as the slight dogleg left has water and out of bounds that reach all the way to the green, which is surrounded by water and bunkers. If you hit the ball straight and accurate on this hole it is a great birdie op because the hole is not overly long for a par 5. But if you get crooked, double bogey or worse is what you will pencil on your card.
