Pro Tips
| The ideal tee shot is down the center right side of the fairway as long left may bring trees into play on your approach shot. Long hitters may take a more aggressive and riskier line over the bunker in hopes for a shorter club in. Play your approach shot a few yards longer and remember, middle of this larger green is a good place to put from on your opening hole. |

Pro Tips
| Aim your drive down the center left of the fairway to avoid the right bunker. On your second shot you may have a decision to make as there is water along the approach to the green from 100 yards and in. If you are laying up like most mere mortals, keep you shot to the right side of the fairway this takes the water left out of play, and leaves you a good angle into the diagonal green. If you are going for the green in two, crisp contact will be required to carry the distance and still hold the green. Either way you play it, a birdie could be in your grasp! |

Pro Tips
| Focus on this tee shot as accuracy off the tee is the most paramount on this downhill par 5 with out of bound in play left and right. Aim shots down the left side of the fairway as everything will feed right from there. This narrow green slopes from back to front so it is ideal to stay below the hole if possible. |

Pro Tips
| This beautiful par 4 plays differently from all angles. There are bunkers left and right that come in to play for most players and aiming at the right edge of the left bunker is a sound play. On your approach shot to green, it is good to know that the hole plays about a half club less. Middle of the green is good here as all bunkers are in play. Avoid being long in the back bunker or par will be hard to come by. |

Pro Tips
| This slightly uphill par 4 requires a solid tee shot down the center right of the fairway. The fairway bunker on the right side is treacherous and can make it difficult to make par. Play your approach shot at least a half club more to this elevated green. |

Pro Tips
| A straight uphill par 4 with a narrow fairway sloping right to left and bunker left, this will challenge your focus! Playing up the right center is an ideal tee shot that will leave you in the fairway with a good iron in to this elevated two-tiered green. Play your approach shot a full club up. The left green side bunker is an avoid-at-all-cost bunker, as your will most likely bring an over par score. |

Pro Tips
| One of the tougher holes on the course, this slight dogleg left par 4 is made tougher if this fairway is missed. Right side of the left bunker is a good aim point take, and playing with less than driver may help take the left fairway bunker out of play. This is another two-tiered green that will require about a half a club extra on your approach shot. |

Pro Tips
| Our signature hole and this long par 3 is a beauty! A three-tiered green that you will want to play to the middle for front pin, back for middle pin, and a little long for that back-tier pin location. Par is always a great score here and do not let the distractions get in your head. Enjoy the beauty in this beast of a hole. |

Pro Tips
| Favor the left side of this fairway as the fairway will push balls right on this slightly downhill par 4. From the top of the hill the play will be a half club less. If your drive makes is down the slope, then your approach shot will play the true distance. This larger green slopes from back to front so it pays to stay below the hole. |

Pro Tips
| This challenging par 4 typically plays straight into the wind. Left of center is a good aim point for your tee shot and will help you avoid the fairway bunker on the right. Your approach shot distance will be a half club shorter lest there is wind in your face; then play the distance or more depending on the severity. The green in larger and slopes from back to front and slightly left to right. |

Pro Tips
| If ever there was an argument to have two signature holes at a course, then The Heights would be the Club and this longer par 3 protected by water in front and on the left would be our second one! Playing the upper back tee, play this hole the true distance. Playing all other tees, you want to club up as there will be wind you typically will not feel from these tees. This hole is pretty to look at, but it will bite back. Make sure you do your best to get on the narrow green as there is no guarantee of an up and down. |

Pro Tips
| This uphill par 5 offers a chance to gain a stroke back with a solid tee shot up the slope. Stay focused and play down the right side of the fairway as balls will be pushed left. Long hitters may decide to carry the bunker right, but make sure you can carry it as the uphill requires a little bit extra. If you decide to go for it, the right front of the green is a great aim point. If you are laying up, again, favor the right side of the fairway and land in a wedge distance you like. The two-tiered green is challenging, but a well-played wedge in may give a good chance at birdie. |

Pro Tips
| This straightforward par 4 plays slightly uphill. You will want to split the fairway bunkers to avoid trouble. On your approach take half a club less as wind is usually behind you. This can be a good birdie hole, but do not disrespect the contours of this green or over par maybe your score. |

Pro Tips
| A dogleg left, slightly downhill par 4 with a fairway bunker on the left that is reachable by all. The mountain peak in the distance is a great aim point or you can favor the right side as your drive will go left. Take one less club on your approach but stay out of the front greenside bunker if the hole location is up front. |

Pro Tips
| This easy looking par 3 with a larger green can change your perspective quickly if you miss the green. This hole usually requires a half a club extra. Play to the center of the green and you will have a putt to any hole location. However, miss this green and your short game will be tested to save par. |

Pro Tips
| Another great risk reward par 5 that will test your skill. This dogleg right is typically a three-shot hole that requires good aim and quality ball striking to a green protected on three sides by water. From the tee, take less than driver and play towards the left fairway bunker to help make your layup angle better. With driver in hand a fade off the tee will keep you in the fairway, but out of bounds lingers both left and right. For your second shot, a layup focused down the middle right side will roll to within a wedge distance. On your approach shot, stay focused from this downhill lie as clean contact will help you control the ball flight into this well protected green. If your nerves are a little high, stay right and middle of the green to keep the water out of play. If you decide to go for it, play the distance as you cannot often feel the wind near the green. |

Pro Tips
| This uphill, dogleg left par 4 is a fun way to finish your round at Bernardo Heights Country Club. A good tee shot here will set you up for one last birdie chance. The approach shot to this green will require your full attention as the complex is well protected by bunkers and rough. Take one half to a full club more than you think on your approach to the green so you carry the front bunker from an uphill lie in the fairway. The green slopes heavily from front to back and left to right. Keep your approach shot below the hole location and you will have a good chance of finishing with a one-putt! |
