Welcome to the second hole at Circling Raven Golf Club, a challenging par 4 that requires both distance and accuracy off the tee. From the championship tees, this hole measures 395 yards with a slight dogleg right. The handicap of 11 suggests that this is one of the more difficult holes on the course, so it's important to approach it strategically.
Off the tee, you'll want to aim for a landing area around 217 yards from your driver. Keep in mind that altitude and wind can impact ball flight conditions here in Worley, Idaho. In warmer weather during summer months (June-August), expect your drives to carry further due to lower air density at higher altitudes. However, be prepared for cooler temperatures during spring (March-May) and fall (September-November), which could cause your ball to travel less distance.
Once you've found yourself in prime position on the fairway, take note of three greenside bunkers as they make up just 2% of total bunker coverage on this green. This means there is plenty of room for error when approaching with an iron or pitching wedge.
Speaking of approaches - depending on your skill level and desired strategy - consider using either a long iron or hybrid club if you're confident in hitting them consistently well under pressure; otherwise opt for a shorter club like a seven iron (~140 yards) or pitching wedge (~120 yards). As always though, be sure to evaluate any potential hazards before making any final decisions about how best play out each shot.
Finally as we look ahead into winter months (December-February), keep an eye out for snowfall accumulation which may affect various parts of this course including its greens & fairways throughout these colder times!
