Center Valley offers all golfers the unique opportunity to choose from 5 course tee settings based on each golfers comfort and enjoyment. The course you choose should be determined by the distance you carry your drive and not by your handicap. The five course tee settings are "Champ", "Pine", "Oak", "Cedar", & "Willow". We encourage you to try all five tee settings.
The Front Nine - "Scottish Links" Design
Beginning with the first hole you will be introduced to hidden bunkers and mounds that guard the fairways and greens. The front nine presents the impression that the holes are wide open, but care must be taken to focus on the driving targets. The "Scottish Links" hole designs are patterned from some of the finest holes in the British Isles. A few greens are undulating and challenge the accuracy of the second shots into the green. Putting could be difficult if you position the second shots in the wrong position on the putting surfaces. The par 5's number 3 and 6 are reachable in two shots. The par 3's number 2 and 8 are both over lakes guarding the front and left side of the greens. The front nine yields birdie opportunities, rewarding "ball control".
The Back Nine - "North American" Design
The back nine presents an interesting, unique and contrasting challenge from the front nine. This "North American" design presents a different challenge. Beginning at hole number 10 a narrow drive landing area, two lakes guarding the fairway and a sand trap protecting the front right of the green establishes the atmosphere for the back nine. Your trip through the trees, lakes and beautiful design of this nine will offer an enjoyable experience. This nine plays a couple strokes higher than the front nine. It challenges you to drive the ball into the fairways to score it well. You must be careful to hold your focus on this inward nine. Errant shots have penalty obstacles positioned to catch your ball.
