History
Hole One is a great starting hole. A par
four that challenges you to stay left of the
possible water hazard along the right side
of the fairway. If you can reach the water,
and preferably on the left side, you leave
yourself with a generous approach shot of
about 150 yards. Designed to introduce the
golfer to the need for straight driving here
at GCI. Absolutely no truth to story that
the lake is there to collect the new ball
you just bought.
Requirements
Straight or slight draw from tee. Crisp,
high short iron (6 to PW) to green. Good lag
putt if approach leaves you above hole.
Difficulties
May lose ball on range to the left or in the
lake to the right. Hard to stop ball on
green coming in over the right front trap.
Hard to birdie from back of green.
Suggestions
Use 3-wood or long iron from whites. Don't
over-club second shot. Be satisfied with
par, 'cause you're even so far.
Observations
It is 210 from the yard-arm to the lake.
Most golfers under-club 90% of the time. It
sure is a beautiful day. |
