The 175 yard uphill par 3 4th, hides a piece of art that lies just left of this green. Amply named Turtle Back, a Picasso-like sand bunker in the shape of a turtle is a sign of bunkers to come. The assortment of sand bunkers include various shapes, obstacles within sand such as boulders, trees, and ornamental shrubs as well as grass bunkers that include railroad ties. While not famous for sand bunkers, you will believe the bunkers of Chesapeake belong on the back of a golf magazine along with the extravagant bunkers often found in Myrtle Beach or Florida. After a relatively long par 4, the par 5 6th is what I call the boomerang hole.
Players drive uphill to a fairway that seems to tale slightly to the left.
However, this rise is guarded by a large sand bunker which hides a strategically placed wetland in the left rough. While a forest of trees may eventually destroy a players confidence, there is ample room, more than you think on several holes. Above this bunker, the fairway surrounded on either side by trees seems to endlessly curve to the left. Meanwhile, the fairway gradually slopes away from players to the right. Any drive too straight, will likely find trees that overhang the right rough.
