Hole 15 at Wilshire Country Club
Par 4 • 329 Yards • Los Angeles, California
Don't let the modest 329 yards fool you—Wilshire Country Club hole 15 stands as the course's number one handicap for good reason. This deceptively challenging par 4 demands precision over power, with its straight layout offering no room for error despite the absence of traditional hazards. The small green complex serves as the hole's primary defense, requiring a perfectly placed approach shot to hold the putting surface. Strategic positioning off the tee becomes critical, as the ideal angle into the green rewards thoughtful course management over aggressive play. What appears straightforward from the tee reveals its true character through subtle contours and demanding accuracy requirements that separate skilled players from the field.

This short par 4 requires precision over power - the fairway completely disappears at 250 yards, making driver a risky choice that could find trouble.
Target your tee shot to the 200-yard mark where the fairway is just 12 yards wide - use a mid-iron or hybrid for accuracy over distance.
Beware of bunkers positioned at 235.8 yards - laying up short of 200 yards keeps you well clear of this trouble.
After a conservative tee shot to 200 yards, you'll have approximately 129 yards remaining to a generous green measuring 4,130 square feet.
The large green dimensions of 27 by 41 yards provide a forgiving target for your approach shot, allowing for aggressive pin-seeking on your second shot.
This 329-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
