Hole 13 at Seminole Golf Club is a par 3, measuring in at 168 yards from the championship tees and 129 yards from the women's tees.

This hole can be tricky due to local weather conditions that vary throughout each season. During spring months you may experience higher temperatures and wind speeds that could affect ball flight and cause your shots to travel further than expected. In summer months you may find yourself dealing with humidity while during fall months there may be cooler temperatures causing your ball to fly shorter distances than normal. Winter brings its own set of challenges as well; chilly air will make for slower swings resulting in lower launch angles and less carry distance off tee shots or approach shots into this green.
Given an average drive length of 217 yards, you should aim for around 140-150 yard shot off the tee depending on how much wind is present that day so as not to risk overshooting this small target by too much. From there, choose an appropriate club such as a 7 iron or pitching wedge depending on pin placement and wind direction/speed in order to get close enough for birdie chances or even better!

Club Recommendations
When it comes to the bunkers, aim for the center of the green and avoid aiming too close to them. If you do find yourself in a greenside bunker, make sure to take extra time when selecting your club and shot type as this can be a difficult situation due to the small size of this green.
Lastly, pay attention to pin placement. On windy days, focus on playing more conservatively by avoiding back pins or those located near any of the 9 bunkers surrounding this green area. When playing into these pins use a lower lofted club such as an 8 iron or 9 iron in order to keep ball flight low and reduce risk of overshooting your target.
