Hole 14 at Westwoods Golf Club

Par 3 • 211 Yards • Farmington, Connecticut

Enhanced Content

Brutal

The 14th at Westwoods Golf Club presents a deceptively challenging 211-yard par 3 that demands both precision and confidence from the tee. This straight, no-nonsense one-shotter features a small green that places a premium on accuracy over distance, making club selection critical in Connecticut's often-changing wind conditions.

Without significant hazards to intimidate, the hole's primary defense lies in its compact target and the psychological pressure of finding the putting surface from this substantial yardage. The clean design allows golfers to focus purely on execution, though the small green complex punishes anything but well-struck shots. Missing the target often leaves challenging recovery shots that can quickly turn par into bogey. This hole exemplifies Westwoods Golf Club's philosophy of strategic design, where simplicity creates its own form of difficulty and rewards precise shot-making above all else.
