Green slope
1st and 2nd greens, of 18 mapped here. The full set, every green, the medians and the lidar date, is made for the course itself.


Plays-like is a geometric adjustment and nothing more: one yard of playing distance per yard of tee-to-green elevation change, measured off public elevation data. It takes no account of wind, lie, temperature or how a falling ball stops, so it is not a club recommendation, and the green maps are surface gradient only, and they are not a read of the break. Mapped yardage totals 6,473 against the 6,469 on the card. Elevation: USGS 3DEP (3DEP-1m).
Ratings
Ratings are editorial estimates; difficulty is derived from course length and par where hole data is mapped.
