The Round
The Journey at The Arroyo Golf Club
I.
The Opening
Three good shots are needed at the Arroyo's 1st, its longest hole: two fairway bunkers to clear off the tee, a downhill second to a wide landing area, and a green bunkered front, back and left. The 420-yard 2nd climbs slightly past three fairway bunkers, and the par-3 3rd often plays downwind. The 4th, the No. 1 handicap, heads toward Red Rock Canyon, and the par-5 5th has a bunker in mid-fairway 20 yards short of the green.
II.
The Middle
The par-3 7th drops about 100 feet from the tee to a kidney-shaped green on the edge of a lake, bunkered short right and left. The 396-yard 8th rewards a drive down the right, and the 368-yard 9th leaves a wedge if the drive clears the left fairway bunker about 220 yards out. The 10th is the first of three inward holes with a carry over water from the tee, the par-5 11th is short and open in front, and the 225-yard 12th plays into the prevailing wind.
III.
The Finish
The 13th has a generous landing area and a huge, receptive green. The 14th, the No. 18 handicap, still has pot bunkers and a tiered green. At the 15th the club suggests a long iron off the tee to stay short of trouble. The 16th, the No. 2 handicap, asks for a drive of at least 230 yards over a lake, with two massive bunkers across the front of the green. At the 401-yard 18th the drive carries a lake to a fairway that narrows to 20 yards.
How to Play It
The Arroyo Golf Club — Playing Strategy
Beginner / High Handicap
A 148 slope from the Gold tees makes the forward sets worth using; the club card has five, down to Green. The water carries come at the 10th, 16th and 18th, and from the back the 16th needs about 230 yards over the lake, so check the carry from the chosen tee. At the 15th, the club's long iron off the tee keeps the trouble out of play.
Intermediate / Mid Handicap
Club selection decides the par 3s: the 3rd can be anything from a wedge to a long iron depending on the westerly wind, the 7th drops about 100 feet, and the 225-yard 12th plays into the prevailing wind. On the 5th, the safe second stays short of the bunker 20 yards from the green, and the 6th demands distance control because its green is wider than it is deep.
Advanced / Low Handicap
From the Gold tees (73.0/148) the birdie holes are the short, open 11th and the 5th, if the second carries the mid-fairway bunker 20 yards short. The 16th is the No. 2 handicap for good reason: a 230-yard carry, a fairway that narrows near the landing area, and a green where long is better than short. On the 18th the fairway pinches to 20 yards, so position beats distance.
