Hole #1

Par 4 | Handicap 3/8

395

374

350

 300 300 217

A mid-length par 4 with a bunker guarding the left side of the fairway. The approach features a split fairway, with the lower left side creating a more difficult angle into the green and a bunker positioned between the two sections. Two greenside bunkers add further protection, including a pot bunker on the right and a deep bunker on the left. The putting surface is relatively flat overall, although a noticeable dip on the middle-right portion of the green can influence both approach shots and putting.

Hole #2

Par 5 | Handicap 9/2

485

466

442

 409 409 337

A short par 5 with an opening fairway bunker and another bunker guarding the right side, where the fairway naturally slopes toward trouble. Longer hitters should be aware of a hidden lake beyond the right bunker, while the bunker on the left provides a useful aiming point. Water continues along the right side of the hole and wraps behind the green, with a large bunker protecting the left side. The putting surface is relatively flat but sits on a raised plateau, a design feature that becomes a recurring theme throughout the Pate course.

Hole #3

Par 3 | Handicap 11/16

159

134

134

115

 115 97

A short par 3 featuring a pot bunker short of the green that can punish a poorly struck tee shot. Three greenside bunkers provide additional protection, with two guarding the front and another positioned behind the green for overly aggressive shots. The putting surface has a subtle two-tier design and sits on another raised plateau, making proper club selection and distance control essential from the tee.

Hole #4

Par 5 | Handicap 15/10

564

520

473

 417 417 358

A long par 5 with out of bounds running along the left side and four bunkers guarding the right. The second shot is framed by two fairway bunkers before the hole opens up, while a lake farther right adds another hazard for poorly positioned shots. A fairway extension along the left side provides room to approach the green, which is protected by a bunker at the front right and water running along the entire right side. The long, narrow plateau green places a premium on accuracy and distance control, especially for players attempting to reach the green in two.

Hole #5

Par 4 | Handicap 17/18

312

299

276

 276 214 214

A short par 4 with a fairway bunker providing a clear aiming point off the tee. A slope runs along the right side of the hole, with a lake also in play for poorly struck shots. The plateau green is protected by a pronounced false front and two greenside bunkers, one on the left and another near the center. Accuracy into the green is important, as shots that come up short can quickly leave a difficult recovery.

Hole #6

Par 3 | Handicap 5/14

208

188

156

 121 121 121

A long par 3, often jokingly referred to as the “easiest par 5,” with water running along the right side and wrapping behind the green. A medium-sized bunker protects the left side, leaving little room for an inaccurate miss. The putting surface slopes from front to back toward the water, making distance control especially important. Back hole locations can be particularly demanding, as shots that land too firmly may struggle to stay on the green.

Hole #7

Par 4 | Handicap 13/12

424

374

349

 284 284 233

A mid-length par 4 with three bunkers near the beginning of the fairway that are generally not in play for the more aggressive tee shot. A group of palm trees on the left provides a useful aiming point, while the slope along the right side can send misses into the desert or leave an awkward uneven lie. The long, narrow green is protected by two greenside bunkers with a lake beyond them. The left side offers the safer miss, although a crater-like contour can make recovery shots difficult. This hole rewards the aggressive player who positions the tee shot well.

Hole #8

Par 4 | Handicap 1/4

427

405

361

 316 316 261

A mid-length par 4 with a creek running along the left side from tee to green as the hole bends gently left. A fairway bunker on the right places a premium on positioning off the tee. The approach plays uphill to an elevated green protected by two bunkers and water along the left side. A pronounced false front feeds shots toward a collection area on the right, making it important to carry the ball fully onto the putting surface. Once safely aboard, the putting surface is relatively straightforward.

Hole #9

Par 4 | Handicap 7/6

442

415

358

316

 316 243

A long par 4 with a slight dogleg right and a split fairway that makes positioning especially important. The left side sits higher and provides the preferred angle into the green, while the lower right side can leave a more difficult approach. A bunker helps define the beginning of the split, with another guarding the right side of the fairway. The elevated green is protected by two bunkers on the right and angles away from the player, making the higher left side of the fairway the ideal position for the approach.

Hole #10

Par 4 | Handicap 18/13

349

326

280

 241 241 241

A mid-length par 4 featuring a split fairway, with either side providing a workable angle into the green. Two fairway bunkers help define the landing area, including one that separates the two sides and another positioned to the right. The approach plays to an elevated, two-tier green protected by three bunkers - two across the front and a pot bunker behind. The putting surface slopes from back to front, making distance control into the proper tier especially important.

Hole #11

Par 4 | Handicap 4/9

399

374

349

294

 294 238

A long par 4 with a slight bend to the left and a lake running along the right side from the fairway toward the green. Three bunkers positioned through the middle of the fairway make the tee shot especially demanding, while the left side offers more room for a safer miss. The approach is played to a long plateau green, with the lake continuing along the right side and a bunker protecting the left. Once safely on the putting surface, the contours are relatively manageable.

Hole #12

Par 5 | Handicap 12/5

567

538

518

466

 466 374

A long par 5 with the lake from the previous hole now running along the left side. Several fairway bunkers shape the hole, with one on the left and five stretching along the right side of the fairway. The green is protected by two bunkers, including one on the right and a pot bunker on the left. Length is the primary challenge, while the two-tier green slopes from back to front and rewards a well-controlled approach.

Hole #13

Par 4 | Handicap 14/11

364

345

324

 297 297 235

A short, drivable par 4 for longer hitters with a slight dogleg and a bunker guarding the right side of the fairway. Laying up short of the bunker can leave a partially blind approach, while favoring the left side provides a better view into the green. The plateau green is protected by three bunkers—a pot bunker on the right and two on the left, one toward the front and another toward the back. The putting surface features complex contours, making three-putts a real possibility even after a well-played approach.

Hole #14

Par 3 | Handicap 8/17

198

178

155

 128 128 94

A mid-length par 3 with a plateau green surrounded by four bunkers. Two bunkers sit below the elevated putting surface, while two more guard the right side and make misses in that direction especially difficult. The two-tier green slopes from right to left, adding another challenge for players trying to leave the ball close. Accuracy and proper placement are essential on this strategically demanding par 3.

Hole #15

Par 4 | Handicap 2/1

448

408

364

345

 345 300

A mid-length par 4 with another split fairway, divided by two bunkers that make positioning off the tee important. A bunker guards the left side of the approach, while water runs along the right side near the green. Additional bunkering protects the front and right side of the putting surface before the water comes into play. The long green is relatively straightforward once reached, making this one of the better birdie opportunities on the course.

Hole #16

Par 3 | Handicap 10/15

197

168

146

 146 127 127

A short par 3 with a lake guarding the right side of the green. Three bunkers add to the challenge, with one positioned back right, another back left, and a pot bunker short of the putting surface. The green features a pronounced valley through the middle, making ball position especially important. Finding the correct section of the green can make the difference between a manageable birdie putt and a challenging two-putt.

Hole #17

Par 5 | Handicap 16/7

575

531

493

451

 451 388

A long par 5 with a bunker guarding the left side and water running along the right from the tee through the approach. Additional bunkers frame both sides of the fairway on the second shot, placing a premium on position as the hole progresses. Three bunkers protect the left side near the green, with one positioned slightly apart from the other two. The putting surface itself is relatively flat, making distance and avoiding the water the two primary challenges on this hole.

Hole #18

Par 4 | Handicap 6/3

459

402

342

 342 324 272

A mid-length par 4 with three bunkers shaping the tee shot. One sits near the beginning of the fairway slightly left, while two more guard the right side. A large valley comes into play on the approach; recovery is still possible from below, but the preferred position is on top of the hill for a better view and angle into the green. The elevated putting surface is protected by three bunkers, two in front and one to the left. A crater-like contour on the middle-left portion of the green can funnel balls into a difficult position, making approach placement important on the finishing hole.
