Info: This Jack Nicklaus-designed course appeals to golfers with traditional sensibilities. At 7,211 yards (from the back tees) Apache is no pushover. Gently rolling fairways, ample green complexes with subtle, grassy catch areas and deceptively sloping putting surfaces provide Members with a more relaxed-style round of golf. The design strategy allows for many options from the tee as well as in the approaches to the green, with room to play run-up shots or fly it in high. The eighteenth hole features two separate greens-one which is easily found with a well struck approach, and one that is set into a hillside fronted by an unforgiving wash known for its appetite for golf balls and overly aggressive golfers.
