Aspen Glen Club, The Hole by Hole - 9th Hole

For low handicappers, the key to success on this hole is setting up a manageable approach shot. With a drive of 280+ yards, they have the advantage of being able to reach the green in two shots. However, accuracy off the tee is crucial as any errant shots could result in difficult lies or even out-of-bounds. The slightly dogleg right requires players to shape their shots accordingly and avoid hitting into trouble.

Mid-handicappers should focus on finding the fairway off the tee and avoiding any hazards that may come into play. With drives averaging around 230+ yards, they will likely need an extra shot to reach the green. This means careful club selection and smart course management are key for these players.

High handicappers should prioritize accuracy over distance on this hole. With drives averaging around 200+ yards, reaching the green in regulation may not be feasible for them. Instead, they should aim for a safe landing spot in order to set up a manageable approach shot towards the large 8475 sq ft green.

Local weather conditions can also greatly impact play on Hole 9 at Aspen Glen Club throughout each season. In colder temperatures or with strong winds affecting ball flight, players may need to adjust their strategy accordingly by selecting different clubs or altering their intended trajectory.
