Welcome to hole 14 at Morgan Run Resort & Club - North in Rancho Santa Fe, California. This par 4 offers a challenging yet strategic approach for golfers of all levels.

From the Pro tees, this hole measures at 371 yards and has a handicap of 10. The Men's tee box is slightly shorter at 362 yards but maintains the same difficulty with a handicap of 10 as well. For Senior Women's and Women's tee boxes, distances are even more manageable at 321 and 356 yards respectively.

The fairway width is generous at approximately 36 yards, making it easier to hit off the tee. However, don't let that fool you as there are six bunkers strategically placed throughout the fairway and greenside areas. These bunkers only make up about two percent of the total green area but can still pose a challenge for those looking to attack pins close to their edges.

As you stand on the tee box, take note that this hole features a slight dogleg right curvature. This means that your first shot should favor towards the left side of the fairway in order to set yourself up for an easier approach shot into the green.

Speaking of approaching shots, keep in mind that this green measures at approximately 4944 square feet which may seem large but also has some undulations that can affect your putting line. Additionally, depending on weather conditions such as altitude or wind direction and speed across seasons (especially during spring when winds tend to be stronger), club selection plays an important role here since hitting accurate distance shots will be key in avoiding potential hazards around this green complex.

For example; if you typically hit your driver ~217 yards off-the-tee then consider using it if winds are favorable or choose another club like your pitching wedge (~120 yards) instead if they're not so much.

Likewise; when choosing between clubs like your seven iron (~140 yards) or pitching wedge (~120 yards), consider the distance from your ball to the pin, any potential hazards in play and current weather conditions before making a final decision.

Overall, hole 14 at Morgan Run Resort & Club - North offers a strategic challenge for golfers of all levels. With its slight dogleg right curvature, generous fairway width and well-placed bunkers, this par 4 requires careful planning and execution on both your tee shot and approach to successfully navigate through it. So remember to choose your clubs wisely based on course conditions and always aim for the left side of the fairway off-the-tee for an easier approach into this green complex. Good luck!
