Hole 1 : The first hole is a short par 4 climbing up the hill. The tree planting on the left is a mixture of Pine and Birch planting and give a good visual (native) backdrop to the opening hole as it climbs up the hill. The rough surrounding the hole will be red fescue with areas of the course overseeded with a native wildflower mix.
There is a large mound front right of the green that hides part of the green from the golfer. This mound protects the green from making it too easy, open and maybe drivable. Bounces of the mound will be unpredictable and the majority will kick hard left towards three bunkers of rough grass.
The play from the tee will be to play to play 210yds down the right half of the fairway maybe getting up the first main rise in the fairway avoiding the bunkers left leaving 100-70yds shot to the green that slopes away from you at the back and has a ridge running through it from back right toward front left.
The hole is designed to be a gentle opener with a potential birdie chance especially if the pin is on the upper level of the green.
