Par 3209 Yards • Orlando, Florida

Enhanced Content
Brutal

The 18th handicap hole at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club might seem like a breather, but this 209-yard par 3 demands precision over power. With minimal hazards guarding the small green, the challenge lies in club selection and distance control on this deceptively straightforward layout. The absence of major trouble spots creates a false sense of security – miss the compact putting surface, and recovery becomes the primary concern. Lake Nona's reputation for pristine conditioning means the green will hold a well-struck shot, but the premium is on accuracy rather than aggressive play. This hole rewards conservative strategy and solid fundamentals, making it a perfect scoring opportunity for players who resist the temptation to attack and instead focus on finding the center of the green.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Club selection is critical on this 209-yard par 3 - take one extra club to ensure you clear the bunkers positioned at 186.9 and 191.9 yards, as coming up short leaves a difficult recovery shot.

green

Target the center of this compact 3,012 square foot green measuring just 18 yards wide by 28 yards deep - the small target demands precision over aggressive pin-hunting.

hazard warning

With the fairway completely disappearing beyond 200 yards (0 yards wide at 250y), any shot that carries too far will find trouble - focus on distance control rather than maximum carry.

approach

The 30-yard fairway width at 200 yards provides a reasonable bail-out area if you're between clubs - better to be pin-high in the fairway than short in the bunkers.

tee shot

At 209 yards to a green that's only 28 yards deep, this hole demands your most reliable mid-to-long iron - prioritize accuracy and solid contact over trying to get extra distance.
