PGA National Resort and Spa 'Champion Course' Hole by Hole - 10th Hole

Hole 10 is a par 5 with a distance of 526 yards from the championship tees at PGA National Resort and Spa 'Champion Course'. The hole has a handicap of 8, making it one of the more challenging holes on the course. The tee shot should be aimed towards the left side of the fairway to avoid any potential trouble on the right side. With an average drive distance of 217 yards, most golfers will have around 309 yards remaining for their second shot.

The approach shot to this green is where strategy comes into play. The green is relatively small, measuring at just over 8700 square feet, and only has greenside bunkers as a % of total. This means that accuracy is key when hitting your second shot. A slight dogleg to the right adds another layer of difficulty to this hole.

For those who can hit their driver around 217 yards, using it off the tee may not be necessary as there are seven bunkers scattered throughout this hole that could come into play if you're not careful with your club selection and aim. Using a hybrid or long iron off the tee may be a safer option for some golfers.

With an average pitching wedge distance of around 120 yards, most players will have around that same distance for their third shot into this green. Depending on wind conditions and pin placement, using either a pitching wedge or short iron would be recommended here.

Overall, Hole #10 at PGA National Resort and Spa 'Champion Course' requires precision shots both off the tee and onto the green in order to score well. Keep in mind that weather conditions can greatly impact ball flight so adjusting club selection accordingly may help improve scoring chances throughout different seasons.
