Hole1
Par 4

Blue	425 Yards	3 Handicap
White	410 Yards	3 Handicap
Gold	388 Yards	3 Handicap
Red	352 Yards	3 Handicap

The first hole at West Winds is one of two tough par 4’s to start your round. Tee shots down the center or right side of the fairway give golfers the best angle to a downhill green protected by water on the left, and a large sand trap to the front left of the pin.

Hole 2
Par4

Blue	451 Yards	1 Handicap
White	421 Yards	1 Handicap
Gold	391 Yards	1 Handicap
Red	345 Yards	1 Handicap

#1 Handicap. This severe dog- right, 451-yard par 4, challenges golfers immediately off the tee-box. Weary tee-shots left of center set up for long approach shots to a green that slopes off in all directions. In addition, a left-side bunker and large oak tree to the right have been added to make this a well-guarded green.

Hole 3
Par 3

Blue	156 Yards	15 Handicap
White	143 Yards	15 Handicap
Gold	126 Yards	15 Handicap
Red	103 Yards	15 Handicap

Wind and yardage play a major factor on this mid-length par 3. You may have to go up half a club to reach the green on a gusty day.

---

 

Hole 4
Par 5

Blue	478 Yards	7 Handicap
White	456 Yards	7 Handicap
Gold	421 Yards	7 Handicap
Red	384 Yards	9 Handicap

The first par 5 on the course offers a classic risk/reward layout. Long drives make it possible to reach this uphill green in two. However, wayward tee-shots to the right can easily drift out of bounds. Once out of danger, you will have ample space to place approach shots on this oversized green.

Hole 5
Par 3

Blue	173 Yards	17 Handicap
White	146 Yards	17 Handicap
Gold	102 Yards	17 Handicap
Red	97 Yards	17 Handicap

Take enough club, make sure of yardage, and aim for the left side of the green.

Hole 6
Par 5

Blue	482 Yards	13 Handicap
White	463 Yards	13 Handicap
Gold	417 Yards	13 Handicap
Red	395 Yards	11 handicap

A rolling fairway and sloped landing area make this par 5 a unique challenge on the front.

Tee shots should be aimed well left of center to avoid feeding into a gully on the right side of the fairway. You will need to add one club on your approach to the green if you find yourself on either the sever upslope or downslope just inside the 150 yard marker. In addition, the green is significantly deeper than it appears, guarded with two bunkers left and right makes this par 5 a tough one.

---

 

 

Hole 7
Par 3

Blue	196 Yards	9 Handicap
White	185 Yards	9 Handicap
Gold	174 Yards	9 Handicap
Red	156 Yards	13 Handicap

Number 7 is the longest of the par 3’s at West Winds. From the back tees it plays 235 yards to a small green guarded by two front bunkers.

---

 

 

Hole 8
Par 4

Blue	398 Yards	5 Handicap
White	375 Yards	5 Handicap
Gold	367 Yards	5 Handicap
Red	305 Yards	7 Handicap

With a giant oak tree and pond protecting the fairway, the 8^th hole offers golfers a chance to get somewhat creative off the tee-box. A tee shot hit slightly left of the oak sets up a good angled second shot to a fairly large green, but going over the tree or pond offer a fairly short approach shot. The choice is yours, but be weary of the water hazard back and to the right of the green.

---

 

 

Hole 9
Par 4

Blue	373 Yards	11 Handicap
White	350 Yards	11 Handicap
Gold	340 Yards	11 Handicap
Red	323 Yards	5 Handicap

From tee to front side of the green, you are fighting an uphill battle. With a slight dogleg to the left and trees lining the right side of the fairway, this hole requires a good tee shot.

Second shots will also have to be precise when trying to land on this small green that slopes left to right and front to back.

---

 

 

Hole 10
Par 4

Blue	428 Yards	2 Handicap
White	400 Yards	2 Handicap
Gold	389 Yards	2 Handicap
Red	359 Yards	2 Handicap

One of the most challenging par 4’s on the golf course. You must hit two good shots to have a chance at par. Off the tee box, this 90 degree dog-leg right forces golfers to place their tee shots down the middle. Anything left makes for an extremely long second shot, while tee-shots to the right leave golfers virtually no angle to the green. Pine trees to the left of the green, and a large bunker short and right add to the difficulty of this hole.

Hole 11
Par 4

Blue	376 Yards	10 Handicap
White	355 Yards	10 Handicap
Gold	325 Yards	10 Handicap
Red	240 Yards	10 Handicap

A solid drive anywhere on the fairway sets you up for a good approach to a sloping green. Although looks are deceiving, the right side of the fairway offers slightly more room off a tee shot. Just be cautious not to go too far right, and risk rolling down a steep hill to 17’s fairway.

---

 

 

Hole 12
Par 3

Blue	153 Yards	18 Handicap
White	138 Yards	18 Handicap
Gold	130 Yards	18 Handicap
Red	104 Yards	18 Handicap

A short, uphill par 3 nestled in between two front-side bunkers. Take a half-club more on this hole to avoid the two sand traps. Once on this green, balls will funnel from back to front.

---

 

 

Hole 13
Par 5

Blue	525 Yards	4 Handicap
White	499 Yards	4 Handicap
Gold	494 Yards	4 Handicap
Red	480 Yards	4 Handicap

This double dog-leg demands three excellent shots for any chance at par, especially since everything slopes right to left on this hole. Hit your tee shot down the right side of the fairway. Your second shot needs to be both accurate and long enough to land just inside the 150 yard marker. Favor the right side in order to keep your ball on the fairway. Finally, add one club to your approach shot to ensure you clear the significant uphill that leads to the green.

---

 

 

Hole 14
par 4

Blue	410 Yards	6 Handicap
White	392 Yards	6 Handicap
Gold	382 Yards	6 Handicap
Red	367 Yards	6 Handicap

Hit your drive down the right side of the fairway to have a second shot into the green. Club selection can be tricky on this hole.

Hole 15
Par 3

Blue	124 Yads	16 Handicap
White	124 Yards	16 Handicap
Gold	116 Yards	16 Handicap
Red	105 Yards	16 Handicap

The shortest hole on the golf course, but it plays a bit longer due to its uphill position from the tee-box. A short iron should give you a chance for birdie.

---

 

 

Hole 16
Par 5

Blue	530 yards	8 Handicap
White	530 Yards	8 Handicap
Gold	518 Yards	8 Handicap
Red	445 Yards	8 Handicap

This 530-yard par 5 is a continuing dog-leg to the right, with out-of-bounds extending along the left side of the fairway. Tee shot should be aimed at the fairway bunker and hit no further than 230 yards with roll. Play second shots short and down the right of the fairway. After two initial blind shots, golfers will get their first glimpse of the green along with a front right bunker protecting the front right portion. Place approach shots below the hole if possible; otherwise, you will face a very fast downhill putt.

---

 

 

Hole 17
Par 4

Blue	345 Yards	12 Handicap
White	320 Yards	12 Handicap
Gold	300 Yards	12 Handicap
Red	280 Yards	12 Handicap

Most shots hit to the right side will gently roll down the hill and into the fairway setting up for an uphill second shot to a fairly flat and large green. Check your yardage to just inside the 150-yard mark and try to land the ball in that area. Add a half a club to reach the uphill green.

---

 

 

Hole 18
Par 5

Blue	502 Yards	14 Handicap
White	493 Yards	14 Handicap
Gold	446 Yards	14 Handicap
Red	381 Yards	14 Handicap

A solid finishing hole. This 502-yard, uphill par 5 will challenge golfers with out of bounds running along both sides of the fairway. The 18^thstarts with a difficult tee shot through a shoot of trees that sets up for a blind second shot lay-up. The hole proceeds to dog-leg sharply at the 150-yard marker, so it is crucial to place second shots toward the right side of the fairway to have a short iron into the green. On your approach shot, aim for the middle of the green regardless of the pin location
