Hole 12 at The Grand Golf Club in San Diego, California is a par 5 that plays 600 yards from the championship tees and 447 yards from the Senior Women's tees. It has a slight dogleg right with an approximate fairway width of 37 yards. There is water present on this hole as well as 8 bunkers located around the green which make up 1% of its total area.

The tee shot should be played to the left side of the fairway for optimal positioning for your approach shot into the green. During summer months, when temperatures are higher, it may be beneficial to use a 3 wood instead of driver due to increased ball flight resulting from warmer air density. In cooler months like winter or spring, you can take advantage of more dense air and hit driver for extra distance if needed.

Your second shot needs to navigate around two greenside bunkers on either side while avoiding water hazards near them before reaching a fairly large 8475 sq ft green with some undulation making club selection crucial here; anywhere between 7 iron and pitching wedge depending upon your distance from pin will give you best chance at birdie or even eagle putt!

How to Play This Hole

Off the Tee

Finally, the green slopes from back to front and left to right. So if you are above the hole or on the right side of it, be sure to adjust your aim accordingly and hit a slightly softer shot than normal. This will help avoid putting off the green and reduce your chances of making bogey or worse.
