LINCOLN HILLS GC

The rolling Sierra Nevada foothills provide dramatic elevation changes that turn what could be a mundane public track into a genuine test of course management and club selection. Several holes play significantly uphill or downhill, with the par-4 seventh offering a particularly memorable downhill approach to a well-bunkered green that demands precise distance control. This layout rewards strategic thinking over raw power, making it a refreshing change from the target golf that dominates much of Northern California's public offerings.
