Club Recommendations
For the high handicapper, this hole can be intimidating with its length and slight dogleg. However, playing from the Men's teebox at 404 yards allows for a more manageable approach shot. Aim to hit your drive towards the left side of the fairway to avoid the two bunkers on the right and give yourself a better angle into the green.
The medium handicapper should also aim for the left side of the fairway off their Pro tee shot, but with a longer distance of 418 yards, they may need to take an extra club or two on their approach due to potential altitude changes. Keep in mind that wind can also play a factor in ball flight here.
For our low handicappers, this is a scoring opportunity. With drives averaging over 280 yards, they have plenty of room to work with off their Championship tee shot. They should aim for just right of center on this slight dogleg left and use their accuracy and power to set up an eagle chance.
Regardless of handicap level, players must pay attention to pin placement as there are only 2% green-side bunkers on this hole. Don't let those sneaky hazards ruin your round! And keep in mind that Palos Verdes Golf Club experiences consistent weather conditions throughout all four seasons so adjust accordingly for altitude and wind when planning your shots.
