Enhanced Content

Brutal

Pelican Golf Club hole 10 stands as a true test of nerve and precision, stretching 489.0 yards to earn its rank as the fourth-toughest hole on the course. This straight-away par 4 demands a confident tee shot down a corridor that rewards accuracy over aggression, with the challenge intensifying as players approach the green complex. Twin greenside bunkers guard the putting surface, poised to swallow approach shots that drift offline. Distance control becomes paramount here—players must commit to a strong, well-struck long iron or hybrid into the green. The hole's straightforward layout belies its difficulty, where sheer length and precise bunker placement combine to make this Belleair gem a genuine card-wrecker for the unprepared.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

The fairway remains a generous 61 yards wide at both 200 and 250 yards, giving players plenty of room to favor either side off the tee. Aim for the widest landing zone and prioritize distance since this is a long 489-yard par 4.

hazard warning

Two fairway bunkers sit at 288.9 and 329.1 yards from the tee, positioned to catch well-struck drives. Players hitting driver should account for these hazards when selecting a line, or consider a shorter club to lay up safely before them.

approach

With the hole playing 489 yards, most players will face a long approach shot. Club selection should account for the medium-sized green (6,596 sq ft, 34 by 39 yards), which offers a reasonable target but requires precise distance control on longer approach clubs.

hazard warning

A greenside bunker awaits at 479.9 yards, just short of the putting surface. Approach shots that come up short risk finding this hazard, so err on the side of extra club to ensure the ball carries to the green.

green

The medium-category green measuring 34 by 39 yards allows some margin for error on approach shots, but its 6,596 square foot size means precise targeting is still important to set up manageable putts, especially given the length of the hole.
