The plan for No. 11
The 11th hole at The Concession Golf Club stands as a testament to precision, demanding nothing less than a perfect tee shot across 211 yards of Florida terrain. This par 3 showcases the masterful design philosophy of Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin, where the absence of major hazards creates a deceptive simplicity that belies its true challenge. The small green becomes the focal point of strategy, requiring golfers to commit fully to their club selection and trust their swing. With its straight-forward layout, this hole strips away distractions and focuses entirely on execution—a fitting tribute to the sportsmanship and precision that inspired The Concession's legendary name. Success here demands the same unwavering confidence that defined both designers' illustrious careers.
Off the tee
Your tee shot is everything on this hole. Club selection should prioritize accuracy over distance, typically requiring a mid-iron to long-iron depending on conditions. Focus on a smooth, controlled swing rather than trying to overpower the shot. The target line should aim for the center of the green, giving yourself the largest margin for error. Pay close attention to wind conditions, as they can significantly affect club selection on this length of shot. Take one extra club if you're between selections - being long is often better than coming up short on par 3s.
Approach & recovery
Since this is a par 3, your tee shot serves as your approach shot. The key is committing fully to your club selection and swing. With a small green as your target, precision trumps power every time. Focus on a balanced finish and maintaining tempo throughout your swing. The straight layout means you can be aggressive with your target line, but respect the green's size by aiming for the fat part of the putting surface.
On the green
The small green demands respect with your putting strategy. Focus on lag putting to avoid three-putts, as missing the green entirely or leaving yourself with lengthy comeback putts can quickly turn a scoring opportunity into a bogey. Read the green carefully from multiple angles, as subtle breaks can be deceiving on smaller surfaces. Pin position will greatly influence your approach strategy - when the flag is tucked, aim for the center and trust your putting.

Its name is a reference to a famous moment in the 1969 Ryder Cup when Nicklaus conceded a three-foot putt to Jacklin, where the United States team already had scored enough points to retain the Cup (through a tie), but Jacklin missing the putt would have made a difference between a tie and an outright win by the United States team
