Club Recommendations
"Hole 5 at PGA National Resort & Spa (Champion) is a short but tricky par 3 that requires precision and careful consideration of weather conditions. The distance may range from 88 to 171 yards depending on the teebox type, making it crucial for players to accurately judge altitude, temperature, and wind in order to achieve their desired shot. With only one bunker guarding the green and a relatively small green area of 6878 square feet, golfers should aim for an accurate approach shot in order to avoid trouble and set up for birdie opportunities."
"The hole's handicap of 17 indicates that it is considered moderately difficult for all levels of players. However, low handicappers are always looking to make eagles on par 5s while high handicappers are trying their best to avoid mistakes. This means that low handicappers should focus on aggressive shots towards the pin while high handicappers should prioritize accuracy over distance."
"In terms of course strategy, players should take note of the water hazard surrounding the front portion of the green which can add an extra challenge if not avoided. Additionally, with only one bunker present on this hole and a mere 4% coverage on the green itself, golfers have less risk when approaching this hole compared to others at PGA National Resort & Spa (Champion). Overall, Hole #5 offers potential scoring opportunities as long as players carefully consider weather conditions and strategically plan their shots."
"The most important shot in golf is the next one."
