At
409 yards, this moderate length par 4 is a deceptively difficult
looking opening hole. The tee is located over a ravine with
a hardwood forest on the right hand side that visibly misdirects
golfers straight toward the green. The fairway however runs
far left of center toward a lone out-of-play bunker utilized
for orientation and direction. The ideal tee shot is a slight
fade with a driver or fairway metal. The true difficulty begins
with a mid-length approach from a slightly sloping downhill/sidehill
lie to a contoured green located across a valley. Bunkers positioned
on the right and in the front protect the green. Hitting the
green is difficult enough but hitting the correct quadrant of
the green in relation to the varying slopes and pin locations
is the true challenge. Otherwise, par will be in jeopardy. Be
cautious of the false front on the green. |
