Club Recommendations
High handicappers should focus on hitting a straight drive and avoiding the bunkers off the tee, as well as aiming for the wider part of the fairway to give themselves a better chance at reaching the green in regulation. With their shorter distance off the tee, they may need to lay up before taking on any potential hazards near or around the green. The large size of this green provides ample room for error when it comes to approach shots, but players should still be mindful of any wind or weather conditions that could affect their ball flight.
Mid-handicappers have more options on this hole with their longer drives, but accuracy is still key. They can take advantage of their distance by aiming further left and potentially cutting some yardage off this dogleg right hole. However, they should also be aware of potential trouble spots such as fairway bunkers and water hazards that come into play if they try to bite off too much distance. Aiming for a safe landing area will set them up for an easier approach shot onto this large green.
Low handicappers have both length and accuracy in their favor on this par 5. They can aim towards the right side of the fairway and potentially cut even more yardage off this already long hole. Their main goal should be setting themselves up for an eagle opportunity by getting close enough to reach in two shots without risking going out-of-bounds or finding one of those six pesky bunkers surrounding the green.
Overall, regardless of handicap level, players must pay attention to changing weather conditions throughout each season at Landings Club Deer Creek which could impact ball flight distances and make club selection crucial on every shot.
