Cherokee Town & Country Club (South) Hole by Hole - 1st Hole

Hole 1 at Cherokee Town & Country Club (South) is a 388-yard par 4 with an elevated tee box. The fairway bends slightly to the left, so golfers should favor the right side when hitting their tee shots. A slight draw will be beneficial here as well. There are four bunkers on this hole, but only one of them lies near the green, so it's not too much of a concern for your approach shot. The 10778 sq ft green has some undulation and can be tricky to read depending on where you find yourself after your drive and approach shots. Local weather conditions in Atlanta vary greatly across each season; during summer months temperatures can reach 90°F or higher and humidity levels will also be high which may affect ball flight distances compared to cooler winter months when temperatures drop below 50°F and wind speeds increase significantly due to frontal systems passing through the area from time to time. Taking into account these variables, golfers playing Hole 1 should use a driver off the tee (~217 yards) followed by either a 7 iron (~140 yards) or pitching wedge (~120 yards).
