Palmer's masterful use of the rugged, rolling terrain creates a challenging and engaging golfing experience. The Arnold track measures 6,793 yards, while the Palmer track measures 6,771 yards. Each round on these courses demands full attention to every shot, with golfers needing to navigate the dramatic elevations, twisting fairways, and strategically placed bunkers and water hazards.

The short holes that run across the valley are particularly intriguing, requiring precision and strategic play. The finishing hole behind the clubhouse is notable for its red-colored Chinese arch-bridge and lush grass, offering a picturesque and memorable conclusion to the round. The shadows of coconut trees on the streams and lakes enhance the course's charm, creating a relaxing and soothing vista.

Formosa First Golf Club's meticulous maintenance and top-notch facilities ensure a premium golfing experience. The beautiful landscapes and challenging layout make it one of Taiwan's most prestigious golf destinations.
