Wilshire Country Club Hole by Hole - 11th Hole

Low Handicapper (280+ yards):

Off the tee, a low handicapper should aim for a precise drive that avoids the fairway bunkers and water hazards on this slight dogleg left. With a long drive of 280+ yards, they may be able to reach the green in one shot. However, with only 4% of bunker on the green, it may be worth taking some risk in order to have an eagle opportunity. In terms of approach shots, players should take into account any altitude or wind conditions that could affect their ball flight.

Mid Handicapper (~230+ yards):

For mid handicappers who typically hit around 230+ yards off the tee, it is important to avoid any trouble off the tee such as fairway bunkers and water hazards. Aiming for a safe landing area will set them up for a manageable approach shot to this small green. While eagles may still be possible with a well-placed drive and accurate iron shot, it is important for mid handicappers to prioritize avoiding mistakes over taking risks.

High Handicapper (~200+ yards):

With shorter drives averaging around 200+ yards, high handicappers should focus on finding the fairway off the tee rather than trying to hit longer shots that could end up in trouble. The key here is accuracy over distance. From there, they can play conservatively towards the center of this small green while keeping in mind any potential weather factors like altitude or wind.

Weather Considerations:

Being located in Los Angeles at Wilshire Country Club means players must also consider how altitude and wind might impact their shots on this hole throughout different seasons. During warmer months when temperatures are higher and air density is lower due to lower humidity levels, balls tend to fly further at higher altitudes compared to cooler months where denser air can lead to shorter distances off each clubface.
