The plan for No. 6
Hole 6 at Spyglass Hill marks your final oceanside encounter, offering a dramatic farewell to the coastal links before the course transitions into the towering Del Monte Forest. This challenging par-4 demands precision as it plays along the rugged coastline, where the ever-present Pacific winds can quickly turn a well-struck shot into trouble.
Off the tee
Your primary objective off the tee is establishing ideal position for your approach shot. With no significant hazards listed, you can be more aggressive with your target line down the center of the fairway. Driver is likely the optimal choice for most players, as the extra distance will leave you with a shorter iron into the small green. Focus on a smooth, controlled swing rather than maximum distance - accuracy becomes paramount when facing a demanding approach shot. The straight layout allows you to aim directly at your intended landing zone without worrying about doglegs or severe trouble.
Approach & recovery
The approach shot is where this hole shows its teeth. The small green demands pinpoint accuracy, making club selection and target selection critical. Favor the center of the green regardless of pin position - trying to attack tucked pins on such a small target often leads to bogey or worse. Take one extra club to ensure you clear any front trouble and focus on a smooth, controlled swing. The green's compact size means even shots that appear well-struck can quickly find themselves in difficult positions if slightly off-target.
On the green
Small greens typically feature subtle but significant slopes that can dramatically affect your putting. Expect the green to have multiple tiers or collection areas that make distance control crucial on your first putt. Pay careful attention to the slope direction during your approach - this will help you read putts more effectively. Three-putts are common on small, undulating greens, so prioritize getting your first putt close to the hole rather than being overly aggressive.
