The Aliso Creek course starts with a 300-yard par four that encourages a lay-up shot with a middle iron off the tee (because the creek runs just in front of the green). The creek is a major factor on the course because it can affect how the game goes. This, of course, depends on your shot. None of the five par fours are longer than 310 yards, but all have medium-sized greens.
Aliso Creek’s true challenge is on the par threes. The second hole plays 177 yards (regular tee) or 201 (championship tee) and the creek runs along the left side, with the canyon protecting on the right. The fourth hole, which is 177 or 195 yards, is lined with trees, with the creek looming on the left near the green. The sixth hole is the shortest — 120 or 102, but tee shots must clear the creek and hold a hard green. The most challenging shot of the day is the tee shot at the eighth hole, which is 207 or 185 yards. The wide creek runs right in front of the green, and forces many to lay-up since there is so little room to miss short, right or left.
The par threes would be a challenge for any of the tour players.
