Hole 7 at Morgan Run Resort & Club - South is a challenging par 5 hole that requires precision and strategy to score well. From the championship tees, this hole measures 506 yards and has a handicap of 16, making it one of the more difficult holes on the course.

The tee shot on this hole is crucial as there is water to the left side of the fairway and two bunkers strategically placed on the right side. The fairway width is relatively narrow at only 36 yards, so accuracy off the tee is key. With an average drive distance of around 217 yards for our golfer, they may want to consider using their driver or possibly a strong three wood depending on wind conditions.

As players approach their second shot, they will need to navigate a slight dogleg left towards the green. At this point in the hole, players should take note of any changes in elevation or wind conditions which could impact ball flight. The green area measures at a spacious 8260 sq ft but with only two greenside bunkers accounting for just 2% of total bunker coverage, avoiding them shouldn't be too much trouble for our golfer.

For their third shot onto the green, our player can expect to use either a long iron or hybrid club given an average distance range between approximately140-160 yards from where they are likely positioned after their second stroke. However if playing into strong headwinds during winter months when temperatures drop below freezing (as low as -10 degrees Fahrenheit), golfers may opt instead for pitching wedge coming up short due to reduced carry distances caused by denser air pressure; conversely during summer months when temps reach triple digits (over +100 degrees F) golfers might benefit from less dense hot air allowing some extra roll-out after landing shots upon arrival near putting surface's edge.

Overall Hole #7 presents many challenges but also opportunities for birdies and eagles for skilled players who manage to avoid the hazards and execute their shots with precision. So, stay focused on your game plan, make smart club selections and you'll have a good chance at scoring well on this tough par 5!
