Landings Club, The (Deer Creek) Hole by Hole - 13th Hole

Low Handicapper (280+ yards):

Off the tee, low handicappers should aim for accuracy over distance on this challenging par 4. With water hazards lining the left side of the fairway and bunkers on either side, a precise drive is necessary to set up an approach shot to the large green. During windy conditions in spring and fall, low handicappers may want to consider clubbing down to ensure they stay in play off the tee.

Mid Handicapper (~230 yards):

For mid handicappers, it's important to focus on finding the fairway off the tee on hole 13 at The Landings Club. With a slight dogleg left and water hazards along one side of the fairway, players should aim for accuracy rather than distance. A well-placed drive will set up a manageable approach shot to this large green with only three bunkers in play.

High Handicapper (~200 yards):

High handicappers should prioritize avoiding mistakes on this difficult par 4. With limited bunkering and wide open fairways, players can take advantage of their full driving distance without worrying about getting into trouble. However, be cautious of wind conditions during spring and fall as it could impact ball flight and make club selection more challenging.

Weather Considerations:

The windy seasons of spring and fall can greatly affect strategy on hole 13 at The Landings Club. Low handicappers may need to adjust their club selection due to increased wind resistance while high handicappers may struggle with controlling their shots in gusty conditions.

Percent Bunker On Green:

With only three bunkers scattered throughout this hole, players shouldn't worry too much about landing in them off the tee or with their approach shots unless they are extremely errant shots. However, beware if you do find yourself near one as these "green-side" bunkers can pose challenges for even skilled golfers when trying to get up-and-down for par.
