7th Hole
Hole Description
Bring your driver to this longest of par fours at RGC. A long drive will set up a blind second shot to a rather large green that slopes from right to left. Use lone tree behind the green as an aim guide to center of the green.

11th Hole
Hole Description
A monster par 5. Long in yardage and elevation this hole requires 3 excellent shots to have a chance at a green in regulation. Blind fairway bunkers wait to swallow up ambitious second shots. The fun doesn't end there as a generous sized green offers many challenging pin placements and makes approach shot accuracy a must.

12th Hole
Hole Description
Short in length, long in character, this little gem waits to trap the careless. Two fairway bunkers demand an accurate tee shot and the smallest green at Rye is bunkered on all four sides. Putt cautiously on the severely sloped green.

13th Hole
Hole Description
A classic! Narrow fairway asks for a right to left tee shot. Approach shot to semi blind green leaves no margin for error. Bunkers guard left and right of the green and behind the green is a 30 foot drop off.

15th Hole
Hole Description
The longer the tee shot the narrower the hole becomes so laying back off the tee is a nice option. Easy approach shot needs to be below the hole. This green is deceptively difficult.

16th Hole
Hole Description
The drive must be hit to the right center of the fairway to avoid being blocked by the redwood tree that protects the left. The approach must favor the left portion of the green to avoid the right front bunker and accommodate a green that slopes from left to right.

17th Hole
Hole Description
The hole can play any where from 207 to 130 downhill yards so make sure of your distance. A conservative shot to the front left portion of the green makes for an easy two putt no matter where the hole location is.

18th Hole
Hole Description
An Excellent finishing par 5. The tee shot must find the fairway to set up a challenging 2nd shot from an uphill lie. Keeping the approach shot below the hole location is a must here on the most severely sloped green on the course.
