Bay Hill Club & Lodge Hole by Hole - 5th Hole

Low Handicapper (280+ yards):

Off the tee, low handicappers should aim to hit a controlled draw towards the fairway bunkers on the left side. This will give them an ideal angle for their approach shot and potentially set up a birdie opportunity. With their distance advantage, they can comfortably clear any of the five bunkers in play and take advantage of the wide fairway. A well-placed drive may even give them a chance to go for the green in one, but it's important not to get too greedy as accuracy is key.

Mid Handicapper (~230+ yards):

For mid handicappers, hitting straight off the tee is crucial on this hole. They should aim towards the center of the fairway or slightly right to avoid any trouble with water or bunkers on either side. With shorter distances off the tee, they may have to lay up short of some of these hazards but can still leave themselves with a manageable approach shot into this relatively small green.

High Handicapper (~200+ yards):

With limited distance off the tee compared to their counterparts, high handicappers should focus on finding safety over distance here. Hitting towards or just right of center will provide them with more room for error while avoiding any potential trouble spots down either side. From there, they can use their remaining clubs strategically to advance towards this smaller target.

Percent Bunker On Green:

The fifth hole at Bay Hill Club & Lodge only has 4% bunker coverage around its green which means that players won't have much concern about getting stuck in sand unless they miss significantly offline from their intended target area.
