Handicap: 12th hardest hole Category: Moderate Average Score: -1.43 / -2.00  Eagle+ 60% Birdie 24% Par 15% Bogey 1% Double+ This hole is not as intimidating as it might look. Loft isn’t usually an issue — in fact, most of the time you should NOT use a high tee so that you can apply backspin […]

Handicap: 14th hardest hole Category: Easy Average Score: -1.56 / -2.00 Eagle+ 66% Birdie 36% Par 4% Bogey Double+ The best option, if it’s there, is to blast it down the left side. There’s sand in the fairway to the left, but you don’t necessarily have to be to the right of it — you […]

Handicap: 2nd hardest hole Category: Difficult Average Score: -0.25 / -1.00  Eagle+ Birdie 39% Par 49% Bogey 10% Double+ 2% The challenge here lies in the slope of the green, because it’s hard to sustain a cut shot into that slope when you’re shooting downhill.
