Hole 13 at Quintero Golf & Country Club

Par 3 • 194 Yards • Peoria, Arizona

Enhanced Content

Tough

The shortest hole at Quintero Golf & Country Club, this 194-yard par 3 serves as the handicap 18 hole, offering a deceptively straightforward challenge in the Arizona desert. With no significant hazards guarding the approach, golfers might expect an easy scoring opportunity, but the small green demands precision over power. The straight layout eliminates guesswork about direction, placing complete focus on distance control and accuracy. Desert winds can play havoc with club selection, making this seemingly simple tee shot more complex than it appears. While the lack of bunkers or water removes penalty concerns, the compact putting surface punishes anything but the most accurate approaches, turning what looks like a birdie chance into a test of short iron precision.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Club selection is critical on this 194-yard par 3 - take one extra club to ensure you clear the bunkers positioned at 178 yards and reach the putting surface with confidence.

approach

Aim for the center of the generous 4,818 square foot green rather than attacking pins - the large putting surface gives you room for error and eliminates short-sided recovery shots.

hazard warning

Avoid the short bunkers at all costs - positioned just 16 yards short of this 194-yard hole, any mishit or conservative club selection will find sand and create a difficult up-and-down.

green

The green's rectangular shape (24 yards wide by 35 yards deep) means pin position matters - when the flag is front or back, focus on distance control rather than lateral precision.
