Welcome to the 14th hole at Aviara Golf Club, a challenging par 3 that measures up to 201 yards from the championship tee. This hole is consistently ranked as one of the most difficult on the course with a handicap of 10, so be prepared for a tough test.
The first thing you'll notice about this hole is its length. At over 200 yards, it's important to choose your club wisely off the tee. With an average drive of 217 yards, I recommend using your driver here for maximum distance and accuracy.
However, don't let the length intimidate you too much - there are no greenside bunkers on this hole and only one bunker in total. That means you can focus more on hitting a solid shot rather than worrying about avoiding hazards.
One potential challenge on this hole is water which runs along the left side of the fairway and continues all the way up to just short of the green. If you tend to slice or fade your shots, be sure to aim towards center-right when teeing off.
As for approach shots, keep in mind that altitude and wind can greatly affect ball flight conditions here at Aviara Golf Club. In warmer weather with less wind resistance, expect your ball to fly further than usual while in colder weather or windy conditions, plan accordingly by taking an extra club or two.
With an average pitching wedge distance of around 120 yards according to our chart data provided above (assuming sea level), I suggest using either a long iron or hybrid club instead depending on how far back into play you want your second shot landing area located away from any potential water hazards near front edge areas onto green surface itself; otherwise go ahead use pitching wedge if feeling confident enough today!
Overall,this par three offers both difficulty and opportunity - make sure to strategize carefully before each shot and trust yourself out there!
