Club Recommendations
Low Handicapper (Pro Teebox):
The fourth hole at Wilshire Country Club is a challenging par 3 that requires precision and strategic thinking. The Pro teebox offers a distance of 193 yards, making it one of the longer par 3s on the course. With six bunkers and water to contend with, accuracy off the tee is crucial for success. Take into consideration any weather conditions such as wind or altitude that may affect your shot distance. For this hole, aiming for the center of the green is recommended to avoid any potential hazards.
Mid Handicapper (Men's Teebox):
For those playing from the Men's teebox, which offers a distance of 185 yards, this par 3 can still be quite challenging. It’s important to focus on hitting an accurate shot rather than trying to overpower it with distance. Keep in mind that there are six bunkers surrounding the green and water in play as well. Consider adjusting your club selection based on weather conditions and aim for a spot just left or right of center on the green.
High Handicapper (Women's Teebox):
Even from the Women's teebox at 165 yards, this par 3 can be intimidating for high handicappers. However, don't let its length discourage you - focus on accuracy over power when teeing off here. Aim for a safe spot towards either side of the green rather than trying to carry all hazards in one go. Also take note of any changes in weather conditions that could impact your ball flight.
Percentages:
With only five percent bunker coverage on this hole, there is not much risk involved when it comes to fairway bunkers or greenside bunkers - but don't let your guard down! These small but strategic traps can still derail your score if you're not careful with placement off the tee or approach shots onto the green.
