Balboa Park Municipal Golf Club Hole by Hole - 8th Hole

Hole 8 at Balboa Park Municipal Golf Club is a par 3, 198 yards from the men's tees and 4 from the women's. It is a slight dogleg left with an approximated 25 yard wide fairway. The green area measures 4114 square feet and has 1 greenside bunker making up 2% of the total green area. This hole can be challenging for golfers due to San Diego's varying weather conditions across all four seasons; temperatures during summer months can range in the mid-80s with moderate humidity while winter months can feature cool mornings in the upper 40s with brisk windy afternoons that could affect ball flight trajectory. Depending on your skill level, you may want to choose between clubs ranging from driver to pitching wedge for this hole as it requires both distance control and accuracy off the tee shot. For players who hit their driver ~217 yards, 7 iron ~140 yards and pitching wedge ~120 yards, we recommend using either a 7 or 8 iron off of the tee box depending on how much carry you need over water hazards or bunkers around this hole.
