The plan for No. 7
The Concession Golf Club hole 7 presents a formidable 606-yard par 5 that embodies the championship pedigree of this Nicklaus-Jacklin collaboration. As the stroke index hole, this straight-forward monster demands precision and power from the championship tees. The generous fairway invites aggressive tee shots, but the true test lies in the approach strategy to a compact green complex that punishes wayward shots. Without major hazards to navigate, golfers must rely on course management and execution rather than target avoidance. The hole's deceptive simplicity mirrors the understated elegance that defines this Florida gem, where every shot must be committed and confident. Length becomes the primary defense, making this a genuine three-shot challenge for most players seeking to conquer one of the course's most demanding tests.
Off the tee
Your opening shot sets the tone for the entire hole, and finding the optimal position in the landing zone is crucial for golf strategy success. With 606 yards ahead, most players should focus on a smooth, controlled swing with their driver, prioritizing accuracy over maximum distance. The straight layout allows you to aim down the center of the fairway, but consider the wind conditions and your natural ball flight when selecting your target line. For your club selection, driver is typically the right choice here, but if you're struggling with accuracy, don't hesitate to take a 3-wood for better control. The key is positioning yourself in the prime area of the fairway, roughly 250-280 yards from the tee, which sets up the best angle for your second shot approach.
Approach & recovery
Your second shot on this par 5 becomes a critical positioning play rather than an aggressive attempt to reach the green. With the small green demanding precision, laying up to your favorite wedge distance - typically between 80-120 yards - gives you the best scoring opportunity. Target the center-right portion of the fairway to create an optimal angle for your final approach. Club selection for this layup shot varies greatly depending on your tee shot result, but most players will use anything from a long iron to a hybrid. Resist the temptation to get too aggressive here; course management principles suggest that a controlled second shot trumps a risky attempt to get closer to the green.
On the green
The small green size makes your final approach shot the most critical element of this hole. With limited real estate to work with, precision becomes paramount in your putting strategy. Focus on hitting your wedge approach to the center of the green, as short-sided positions become extremely difficult to navigate. Once on the putting surface, read the breaks carefully and prioritize getting your first putt close to the hole. The compact nature of this green means that while you won't face extremely long putts, the premium on accuracy remains high throughout your short game execution.
