Hole 13 at Pinnacle Country Club stands as one of the course's most demanding par 4s, testing golfers with its strategic dogleg design. Success here requires precise shot placement off the tee to set up an approach into the green. This hole rewards thoughtful course management over pure power.

Hole 13 at Pinnacle Country Club stands as the course's toughest test, earning its handicap 3 ranking through sheer demand for precision. This par 4 stretches 471 yards and bends dogleg right, forcing golfers to shape their tee shot around the corner to find optimal positioning. Cutting the angle too aggressively invites trouble, while playing safe leaves a longer, more difficult approach shot. The green complex awaits protection by a well-placed greenside bunker, punishing any approach that drifts off-line. Success here demands disciplined course management—favoring accuracy over aggression—and rewards golfers who respect the dogleg's dictates. Few holes on the property test both strategy and execution as thoroughly as this formidable par 4.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

This 471-yard par 4 rewards distance off the tee — the fairway widens significantly from 28 yards at 200y to 49 yards at 250y, so players who can carry the ball past 250y gain a much larger landing area.

tee shot

Shorter hitters laying up around 200y face a tighter test with the fairway only 28 yards wide at that distance, so favor a controlled shot shape over a driver if accuracy is in question.

hazard warning

Bunkers positioned at 435.6y come into play on the approach for players who've hit a strong drive, leaving roughly 35 yards to the green — club selection should account for carrying this hazard cleanly.

approach

With a medium-sized green measuring 41 by 25 yards, there's a reasonable margin for error on approach shots, but shot shape should still target the deeper portion of the green (25y wide direction) to maximize putting position.

green

The green's medium classification and 5,827 sq ft size means precision matters more than power on the approach — aim for the center to avoid three-putts on this moderately sized target.
