Shadowridge Golf Club Hole by Hole - 13th Hole

Welcome to the 13th hole at Shadowridge Golf Club in Vista, California! This beautiful par 4 offers a challenge for golfers of all levels with its slight dogleg left and strategic bunkering. From the championship tees, this hole measures 418 yards and has a handicap of 2.

As you approach the tee box, take note of your surroundings and local weather conditions. At an altitude of approximately 300 feet above sea level, shots may fly slightly farther than expected due to thinner air. Additionally, depending on the season, temperature and wind can greatly impact ball flight.

For your tee shot on this hole, we recommend using a driver which should travel around 217 yards for an average golfer. Aim towards the right side of the fairway as there is water along the left side that comes into play off the tee. The fairway is approximately 32 yards wide so accuracy will be key here.

Once you've found yourself safely in the fairway, it's time to plan your approach shot. With only four greenside bunkers accounting for just 1% of total bunker coverage on this green, don't let them intimidate you too much when selecting your club.

From here, we suggest using a long iron or hybrid club which should travel around 140-150 yards for most golfers. Keep in mind that this green measures at just under half an acre (6848 sq ft) so precision will be important when aiming for one of its many pin locations.

Overall,this hole offers a great opportunity to score well with good strategy and execution off both tee and approach shots. Best of luck!
