The ranking is published in the November 2010 issue of the magazine currently on newsstands.

DarkHorse is a par 72 course, covering nearly 7,100 yards from the championship tees. 5 set of tees offer a scenic challenge for players of all ability levels. The course opened in 2002 and was designed by famed golf course architect Keith Foster.
DarkHorse lies in Auburn in the Sierra Nevada foothills, about 50 miles east of Sacramento. The course, a Keith Foster design, is wrapped in the quintessential California landscape of oak studded, rolling hills and features magnificent elevation changes. Holes are gently placed into the curving valleys on the site; the greens are subtly contoured; the bunkers are strategically placed and offer a variety of different shot making opportunities.
