One of the prettiest holes in the desert, this Par 4 looks like a "REMBRANDT." Don't get too caught up with the view or you'll find yourself in an unforgiving bunker or the water. A good drive should leave a middle to short iron to a long but narrow green.

This long Par 5 with a relatively flat and straight fairway has the look of "PALMER'S RUNWAY." Two good shots should leave a short third, but the large, well placed bunkers and a three-tiered green make this hole a great challenge.

The shortest Par 4 on the course, with an abundance of bunkers, make it easy to get "TRAPPED." An iron off the tee is a good play and the short second shot must have a lot of spin to stop on the firm green that slopes away from front to back.

A long start to the outward nine, this "MONSTER" of a hole has water and sand awaiting each shot. A well placed drive will leave a long to middle iron short to the rolling green.

Heavily guarded by native areas on both the right and left side of the fairway. Finding the fairway is a priority on your tee shot which then leaves you with a short iron to an uphill green. A false front on the green will penalize players for not using enough club.

The most difficult hole on the front side. A fairway bunker on the left side of the fairway comes into play on the tee shot, but be careful with the water that also is in play to the right side of the fairway. A good drive will leave the player with a long uphill second shot to t green guarded by bunkers.

A lake guards short and left of the green and a small rock mountain guards the back of the green. Selecting the correct club is critical to scoring well here.

Water is in play from tee to green. A large lake guards the entire left side and a canal runs down the right side that will catch balls that are hit too far to the right. Finding the fairway is critical to give players a chance for birdie or par.

The longest hole on the course. Players must hit a solid tee shot in order to have any chance of hitting their second shot over the canal. A large native area is in play on the left side of the fairway on the tee shot as well as native areas to the right side. Players should lay up short of the bunker approximately 100 yards from the green.

The long par 3 plays across a valley with trees framing the rear of the green. A pair of bunkers guard the front of the green, which slopes back to front.

A sharp dogleg left. Pros should hit an iron from the tee to avoid OB left and right and a small pond through the dogleg. The elevated undulating green has large bunkers both right and left.

This long dogleg left has out of bounds on both sides plus a pond on the right side of the drive's landing area. The approach to the long narrow green is guarded by a trio of large bunkers.

The narrow fairway has OB on both sides plus a large pond on the right side of the fairway.  Bunkers right and left guard the undulating green.

A short par four, the 14th has a fairly open fairway (but OB right) and fairway bunkers right and left 150 yards from the green. A quartet of bunkers protect the small, relatively flat green.

A bear of a hole! A wide open fairway and a good drive will leave a slightly downhill second shot. The green is guarded by three bunkers, with bushes and trees over the green. The green slopes right to left with many subtle breaks. A tough par four!

Eagles, birdies and disaster await at this classic finishing hole. This par five has a tree-lined fairway (including a large clump of palms and lake on the right) making accuracy vital. Pros will fire a long second shot at the green, which is 160 feet wide but very shallow.

"Gilbralter": Favor the left side of the fairway off the tee (aim at the bridge), leaving a clear shot at the green.  Aim your approach shot left of, or over, "Gibralter," the tall rock formation protecting the front of the green.  The canal is not visible from the fairway, but wraps around the right side and in front of the green.

"Cahuilla": A good par five birdie opportunity from an elevated tee.  Aim at the fairway bunkers or slightly left of them off the tee.  Use the same line on your second shot if not trying for the green.  Lake Cahuilla is to your right, but shouldn"t come into play.

"Mirage": This one "looks so easy," but trouble awaits the mis-hit tee shot to the left (lake) and right (trees and Lake Cahuilla).  Aim the tee shot at the palm trees on the right side of the green.  Be sure to hit an extra club on your approach to the elevated green and putting surface.  The center of the green is a smart play to any pin location.

"Distant Trouble":  Reachable in two shots, take your tee shot over the top or left of the long fairway bunker visible from the tee.  Trouble lurks down the entire right side of the hole in the form of a lake.  The well-struck second shot can eaisly reach the green, setting up an eagle putt to help your scorecard.

"Confusion":  The deep bunker down the center of the fairway forces a firm decision whether to play to the left or right fairways.  The right side requires greater carry off the tee, but rewards you with an open shot to the slightly sloping, back-to-front green.

"Hide Out":  The perfect drive is over the left top of the mound nearest the tee, setting up a second shot over yet another mound to an elevated green.  Hit the green here or your left with a very difficult up-and-down.

"Tension":  The shortest par four on couse is the fouth hardest hole on course for good reason.  The second shot makes or breaks you on this hole.  Carry the water to a narrow green.  Miss it right and water awaits.  To the left are bunkers that will add stress to any third shot.

"Detour":  The deepest green (50 yards) on the course awaits you at the end of this par five hole that doglegs right.  Long hitters may cut the corner of the dogleg off the tee, setting up a shot at the green.  Most players should hit their second shots to the right side of the fairway for an open shot at the narrow, well bunkered, winding green that has numerous tiers.  Be sure you leave your approach shot near the hole.

"Runaway":  A finishing hole that tests your nerve until the very end.  A generous fairway collects your drive, setting up a final shot for the day to a green protected by a lake on the right and a deep collection area to the left.  The huge green features a particularly challenging back right pin location.  Do you go for it, or play safely to the center of the green?

This long and narrow par four requires a precise tee shot. There are large eucalyptus trees on the left and a fairway bunker on the right. The second shot must be a good one. The green is uphill and slightly elevated with deep bunkers on each side.

The tee shot on four has to be long enough to carry the lake, but short enough to stay out of the aiming bunkers on the left side of the fairway. A slight fade is a good choice on this dogleg right, burt not too much, since the approach shot is easier from the left side of the fairway.

The tee shot, on the second of back to back par fives, should favor the left side, just right of the fairway bunkers on the left. Since the fairway tilts to the right, there should be some distance added to the drive. The second shot should stop just short of the next set of bunkers, which will leave the player with a full wedge into the green.

A mountain backdrop and a lake down the left side make this hole breathtaking. The right side has two fairway bunkers, one short and one long. The fairway opens up between the two bunkers leaving the player the best approach to the elevated and sloped green.

By using the aiming bunker on the far, right side of the dogleg, the player will set up a perfect approach to the green. The fairway slopes from right to left from the turning point all the way to the green; this will help the ball feed into the proper positions on the fairway as well as on the green.

The last par five comes early and provides an opportunity to score. The long dogleg right has two sets of fairway bunkers on the left side. The peanut shaped green is long and sloped gently from back to front.

This green is guarded by a bunker short of the green, on the left side, as well as bunkers around the green.

Trees down the left side and water down the right make this par four a spectacular hole. The down slope on the left side of the fairway will aid a good tee shot. Since the water on the right comes into play about 150 yards from the green, the smart player will keep the tee shot in the wide section of the fairway. The proper yardage on the approach shot is also important, due to the small bunker just beyond the putting surface on he left.
