My wife and I played there a few weeks ago after not having played there
since the ownership change a few years ago. It looks like the only change 
to the course is that what used to be the front nine is now the back nine
and the old back nine is the new front nine. As for your questions:

> trouble from tee, 

   for me, all tees are trouble :-)   Actually, most holes are pretty 
   forgiving. There's a par 3 (#17) where you hit over a pond and 3 or 4
   holes with trees, but they're not too bad.

>best to be short/long into greens, fast greens??
 
   Depends on pin placement, I guess. As for speed, the evening we played 
   the greens were "medium fast", but with a few weeks of no rain...
   
>any help welcomed....

   As I said, it's a pretty forgiving course. It's usually in pretty decent
   shape, too. However, there are a few spots out there where the grass is
   kinda thin and it's like hitting off cement...
