Enhanced Content

Tough

The 13th hole at Streamsong Resort (Black Course) presents a deceptively straightforward par 4 that demands precision over power. This 441-yard test stretches across the distinctive sandy terrain that defines Tom Doak's masterful design, where the absence of traditional hazards places premium emphasis on course management and accuracy. The straight layout offers an inviting tee shot to a generous fairway, but the approach shot reveals the hole's true character with a small, subtly contoured green that punishes wayward iron play. Without bunkers or water to guide strategy, golfers must rely on natural undulations and strategic positioning to set up scoring opportunities. The green's compact dimensions transform what appears routine into a genuine test of approach shot precision, making this mid-handicap hole a memorable challenge that exemplifies Streamsong's philosophy of using natural topography to create strategic interest.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target the center-left of the fairway with your tee shot, as the fairway widens from 70 yards at the 200-yard mark to 80 yards at 250 yards, giving longer hitters more room to work with.

hazard warning

Be aware of the bunker positioned at 259.4 yards from the tee - this catch bunker sits right in the landing zone for aggressive drivers, so consider laying up with a 3-wood or hybrid to stay short.

approach

From a well-positioned drive at 250 yards, you'll face a manageable approach shot of around 190 yards to a generous green measuring 42 yards by 48 yards - aim for the center of this large target.

hazard warning

Avoid the greenside bunker at 388.2 yards by favoring the right side of your approach shot, especially when the pin is tucked on the left side of the green.

green

With 11,600 square feet of putting surface available, this large green rewards accurate approach shots but also offers recovery opportunities if you miss your target - focus on getting your first putt close rather than being overly aggressive.
