Hole 7 at Torrey Pines Golf Club North Course is a challenging par 4 with an intimidating 400 yards from the championship tees. The slight dogleg right requires accuracy off the tee, as the fairway narrows to just 30 yards in width. A good drive will leave you with a mid-iron approach shot into a large green of 8291 sq ft., but be wary of the three percent greenside bunkers which guard this hole and could easily catch errant shots. Depending on your club selection, altitude, temperature and wind conditions can all affect ball flight conditions throughout each season; for example, during summer months when temperatures are higher and winds tend to be stronger, you may need more than your usual 217 yard driver or 140 yard 7 iron to reach this green in regulation.

Club Recommendations

Playing Tips:

1. Aim for the middle of the fairway off the tee, as it narrows to just 30 yards in width.

2. Take into account altitude, temperature and wind conditions when selecting your club; during summer months you may need more than your usual 217 yard driver or 140 yard 7 iron to reach this green in regulation.

3. Consider playing a draw shot to avoid bunkers on the right side of the hole, but be aware that hitting too far left could bring trees into play.

4. Be mindful of greenside bunkers which guard this hole and could easily catch errant shots; aim for center-green if possible to give yourself an easier putt should you find yourself in one of these sand traps!
