This
299-yard par 4 is a straightforward risk reward
hole and can be reached by the adventurous player
willing to take out the driver. There is out of
bounds on the right just over the dunes. By far
the easiest birdie hole on the course, which makes
it extremely difficult, because a 5 (or even higher)
is also possible. A properly placed tee shot down
the left side, perhaps with a fairway metal or long
iron, will open up the green for a wedge or sand
iron approach. This is a very different hole when
the golfer "goes for the green" with the
tee shot. Doing so brings the far left bunker into
play. The chance of overcompensating and driving
into the right rough, with a difficult pitch over
a pair of bunkers to a very difficult green looms.
There are two great pin positions on the hole, one
long right and the other middle left and it is rare
to get a completely straight putt, even 3-4 feet
from the hole. |
