History
The idea behind this hole is that part of a
good golf test is to have holes wherein
difficulty is found in something besides
distance. This short "one-shotter" is based
on such a premise. Tightly guarded by traps
and water, this hole rewards the good iron
player's finesse.
Requirements
High iron shot with lots of "whoa" on it.
Many times a good sand shot is necessary -
especially from the right front trap. Use
that smooth stroke that has put you ahead in
this match.
Difficulties
Tough traps. Low, punch shots tend to scoot
over the back into traps or "boonies". Wind
never seems to help on this hole.
Suggestions
Pay attention to your own game. Hit the club
that you know will enable you to float it
onto the "dance floor". Consider playing to
the "fat" of the green if the cup is tucked
in behind right bunker.
Observations
Check the line, your stance and grip; now
swing back slow and let 'er rip!
