下集開始。

這類比賽型球場有距離就好辦，白tee就是開球加7鐵或P桿上。有時打歪就在一個短桿切回來，這就是我不喜歡打白tee，用不到球道木和長鐵。除非5桿洞超過500碼，才能用到3木。開球就是一個穩，了無新意。鐵桿今天好多了，上果嶺比例也高了，穩定成長。但今天的推桿就鳥了，很多洞都來3推，明明打的不錯但推桿就是滑過洞口。

球場的球道也算寬，不是太難，但還是有一定難度。因為在球道和球道都會有草叢，讓你找不到球，就算找到，也不容易打出來，像林克斯球場那種草叢。我以為用了上一場沒有掉的Chrome soft球，一直到第13洞才開球有點失神，開到右邊草叢裡，也懶得去找。因為球皮已經有一個刮傷，順便換掉。第二個掉球是第17洞第二桿，球在長草，第二桿被草絆住，球拉左進草叢，也是不找了。

另一個特色是沙坑多，在球道上，果嶺前後左右，都是你很有可能會進去的地方。因為我今天打白tee，距離位置都是容易掉的地方，今天進沙坑4次，2次在球道上，2次在果嶺旁。要打出來不難，就是會讓你吃一點苦頭。再來就是果嶺的難度也是非常有感，2層果嶺，高低半個人落差。幾個洞，都把旗桿插在斜坡位置，要一推很難，所以我幾次三推都是這樣。

果嶺狀況不錯，速度9左右，可能我今天推感不好，線也不是抓的精準。今天只有一個三桿洞，抓一鳥。其他就是par和bogey。打這類比賽型球場，距離是標配，準度還好都過的去，就靠短桿和推桿來救。喔今天的短桿還不錯，都切的比較到位，也比較敢把力量放下去，這樣球的彈道就發揮出來。過去都不太敢把力量放進去，現在比較有經驗和技巧，會更敢下手。

雖然說這個球場球友評價不錯，但我覺得還可以，不會讓我覺得印象深刻。就是典型比賽型球場，維護也不錯，可以測出你的實力，如果可以我會覺得打藍tee會更好玩。這個球場比較類似南方德州球場風格，寬、長和少樹林。走下來真的有累，加上今天沒有風，但溫度沒有悶熱。是不會像南邊那樣爆熱，太陽是溫和、舒服。

Then there were the greens, which were a challenge in themselves. Two-tiered, with some serious elevation changes on a few holes. And to make things even trickier, the pins were placed on slopes, making putting a real test. As a result, I had my fair share of three-putts today. I did not have a good putting that's made me frustrate.

Overall, the greens were in decent shape, running at about a 9 on the stimp meter. Maybe my putting wasn't up to par today, or maybe my aim was a bit off. I managed to birdie just one par 3; the rest were pars and bogeys. When you're playing these tournament-style courses, distance is a given, and accuracy is usually manageable.

It all comes down to your short game and putting to save strokes. Oh, and speaking of short game, mine wasn't too bad today. I was getting my chips nice and close to the hole, and I was really putting some power behind my shots. In the past, I was always a bit timid with my swings, but now that I've got more experience under my belt, I'm not afraid to go for it.

Again, it's typical tournament style course with great condition to play with. You definitely pay what you get for, but if your handicap is over 20, I would say bring more balls for this course. Your skills need to be average in order to get things going. I think West should have more fun with longer distance and I will try next time for blue tee.

Course distance over 6500 yards will allow you perform more in long irons, woods on second shot. It's really challenge for you to leverage all the golf clubs you have. That's why I enjoy for long course to test my ability on managing all kinds of golf clubs. Then you will know which club you should work more in order to get the real performance.
