| Baxter Spann, Golf Course Architect: The long player here may be tempted to reach the green off the elevated tee in a southerly wind. There is little margin for error in this play, as the fairway tilts sharply from left to right in the landing area, and a carry over a bunker and a native ridge is necessary to avoid bunkers along the right side. Too far left, though, and a ball lost in the native grass is likely. An alternate play is an iron off the tee short and right of the left cross bunker, leaving a short to mid iron into the green. It is critical to place the second shot in the correct part of the multi tiered green, as there is nearly seven feet of elevation drop from the back left edge to the front right edge. The seventh offers the player a chance at a very low number, but a very high number here is possible at any point until the ball is holed. |
