Hole 16 at Circling Raven Golf Club is a challenging par 3 that requires precision and strategy to conquer. From the championship tees, this hole measures a lengthy 192 yards, making it one of the longer par 3s on the course. The tee shot presents a daunting challenge, as there is only one bunker guarding the front right portion of the green.
The key to success on this hole is selecting the right club off the tee. With an average drive of 217 yards, your best bet would be to use a long iron or hybrid in order to reach the green in regulation. However, keep in mind that altitude and weather conditions can greatly impact ball flight at this course. In Worley, Idaho, temperatures can range from hot summers (average high of 84°F) to cold winters (average low of 22°F). Additionally, strong winds are common throughout all four seasons which can affect ball flight and make club selection even more crucial.
Once you have safely navigated your tee shot onto the green, you will be faced with a relatively flat putting surface measuring over 13 thousand square feet. While there is only one bunker greenside (making up just two percent of total bunkers on this hole), its placement makes it an important factor when considering approach shots.
For most golfers playing from these tees with an average pitching wedge distance of around 120 yards, aiming for center or left side of the green may be wise as it avoids any potential trouble with water hazards located further right along with that pesky bunker guarding against any short approaches coming up short.
Overall Hole #16 at Circling Raven Golf Club offers both beauty and difficulty as players must navigate their way through varying weather conditions while avoiding hazards en route to reaching another well maintained large putting surface surrounded by some stunning views!
