Hole 3 at The Grand Golf Club is a 565-yard, par 5 from the Championship tees. For the average golfer, this hole should play as a par 5 and can be reached in two shots for those with longer drives. From the tee box, you will face a slight dogleg left with an approximate fairway width of 32 yards. There are seven bunkers located along the fairway but none on the green itself which measures 9028 square feet in size. Local weather conditions throughout all four seasons should be taken into account when playing this hole; altitude, temperature and wind can have an impact on ball flight conditions and overall scorecard results. With an average drive length of 217 yards, players may want to hit Driver off the tee followed by either a 7 iron or pitching wedge depending on where they land in relation to their target destination – ideally just short of the green so that they can go for birdie or eagle in two shots!

Playing Tips:

1. Take into account local weather conditions such as altitude, temperature and wind when playing this hole as they can have an impact on ball flight and scorecard results.

2. Aim for the center of the fairway off the tee to avoid bunkers; a slight dogleg left should be taken into consideration when selecting your club selection from the tee box.

3. A drive length of 217 yards is recommended in order to reach the green in two shots; hit Driver off the tee followed by either a 7 iron or pitching wedge depending on where you land in relation to your target destination – ideally just short of the green so that you can go for birdie or eagle in two shots!

4. The green measures 9028 square feet with no bunkers surrounding it, giving players more room to work with their approach shot and make up any strokes lost during their drive if needed.
