Some stretches of a golf course you play. Others you survive.
Holes 6, 7, and 8 at The Golf Club of California form The Summit — three consecutive holes that shift the entire rhythm of your round. Ancient oaks frame every shot. A creek winds through the valley below. The elevation swings more than 110 feet from tee to green and back again. One hole dares you to go long. Another punishes anything offline. The third gives you the view — and then takes it away.
This is where scores are made or broken. And either way, you'll remember every shot.

Uphill
Terrain
Straight uphill for 593 yards — the longest par five in all of San Diego County. The slope never lets you rest. Patience and power in equal measure.

Downhill
Terrain
A bunker centered in the middle of the green demands precision on every approach. Three tees offer different angles — but no easy ones. Don't forget the selfie spot.
HOLE 8
Descension

450 yds
Distance
Downhill
Terrain
450 yards of pure downhill decision-making. A creek splits the fairway in two — choose your line off the tee, then commit. From the back tees, there's nowhere to hide.
