Aviara Golf Club at Four Seasons Resort Hole by Hole - 2nd Hole

Hole 2 at Aviara Golf Club is a challenging par 4 with a length of 420 yards from the championship tees. The hole has been given a handicap of 3, indicating its relative difficulty compared to other holes on the course.

The tee shot on this hole requires precision and strategy due to its slight dogleg left shape. With an average driver distance of 217 yards, players should aim for the center or right side of the fairway in order to avoid getting blocked out by trees on the left side. A good drive will leave players with a mid-iron approach shot into the green.

The approach shot is where things get interesting on this hole. The green area measures at an expansive 11945 square feet, but don't let that fool you - it's well protected by one bunker located near the front right corner of the green. This bunker accounts for approximately 0% of total bunkers on this hole, making it less likely that your ball will end up in there.

When considering club selection for your approach shot, keep in mind that altitude and weather conditions can greatly affect ball flight here at Aviara Golf Club. In warmer temperatures or with tailwinds, expect your shots to carry farther than usual while colder temperatures or headwinds may cause them to come up short.

For most golfers hitting from these tees (7 iron ~140 yards and pitching wedge ~120 yards), aiming for the center or back portion of the green would be their best bet when playing safe. However, more skilled players may opt for a riskier play towards pins located closer to bunkers as they have better control over their distances and are able to shape shots around obstacles if needed.

Overall, Hole 2 at Aviara Golf Club offers both challenges and opportunities for strategic play. Make sure to plan accordingly based on factors such as tee box type and weather conditions in order to optimize your chances of scoring well on this hole.
