The plan for No. 15

The 15th hole at The Concession Golf Club exemplifies the strategic brilliance of co-designers Jack Nicklaus and Tony Jacklin, demanding precision over power on this deceptively challenging par 4. At 422 yards, this straight-away hole appears straightforward but reveals its teeth through subtle design elements that reward thoughtful course management. The tee shot must find the optimal position on a generous fairway to set up the crucial approach shot to a small, well-protected green complex. With no significant hazards to intimidate, players often underestimate this hole's difficulty, only to discover that finding the correct angle into the compact putting surface requires careful planning. The green's modest size demands pinpoint accuracy, making this a true test of iron play where par feels like a victory and represents the championship-caliber design philosophy that has made The Concession a favorite among golf's elite.

Off the tee

Your tee shot strategy should prioritize finding the fairway over maximum distance. The straight layout provides a clear target line down the center, but the premium is on precision rather than power. A well-struck driver or strong 3-wood to the optimal landing zone around 250-280 yards out sets up the ideal approach angle. Focus on smooth tempo and solid contact rather than trying to overpower this hole. The relatively narrow margins for error mean that even slight misses can leave you in challenging positions. Aim for the center of the fairway and trust your swing - this is not the hole to experiment with draws or fades unless you're completely confident in your ball flight.

Approach & recovery

The approach shot to this small green is where the hole truly shows its teeth. With limited green surface to work with, club selection becomes critical. Depending on your tee shot position, you'll likely face a mid-iron to long-iron approach that demands both distance control and accuracy. The compact green size means there's little margin for error - long or short misses will likely find trouble, while left or right misses leave difficult recovery shots. Focus on the center of the green regardless of pin position, as the small target makes aggressive pin-hunting a risky proposition. Take one extra club if you're between selections and trust your swing to deliver the ball to the heart of the green.

On the green

The small green at the 15th demands respect with your putter. While specific slope information isn't available, typical Nicklaus-Jacklin design principles suggest subtle but significant breaks that can fool even experienced players. Read your putts carefully from multiple angles, as the compact surface can create optical illusions about break and speed. Focus on lag putting to ensure you're never facing a comeback putt longer than three feet. The premium here is on two-putting and moving to the next tee with your score intact.
