| Baxter Spann, Golf Course Architect: The longest of the par threes can be a real brute into a west or southwest wind. The hole is set in a gap in a high ridge, which can become a virtual wind tunnel at times. From the back tee a drop of forty feet adds to the effect such a wind will have on a golf ball. It will not be unusual for a good player to need a driver here to get home. On a calm day, the hole can be much friendlier, though putting will always be a challenge on the very large undulating green. |
