Hole 15 at Briarwood Country Club is a par 3 that plays from 183 yards for the championship tees, 180 yards for men's tees, 170 yards from the senior's tees and 155 yards from the women's tee. The green area is 9519 square feet with two bunkers accounting for only 3% of total around the green. This hole can be tricky depending on local weather conditions throughout all four seasons due to its elevation which may affect ball flight and club selection. For an average golfer hitting a driver ~217 yards, 7 iron ~140 yards and pitching wedge ~120 yards, this hole could be approached off the tee with a fairway wood or long iron followed by an approach shot with either a mid-iron or hybrid depending on wind direction and speed.

Club Recommendations

1. For the average golfer, a fairway wood or long iron off the tee is recommended to ensure accuracy and proper club selection for the approach shot.

2. If playing in windy conditions, consider using a hybrid instead of a mid-iron as it will provide more control and accuracy with your approach shot.

3. Take into account local weather conditions when selecting clubs; elevation changes can affect ball flight so adjust accordingly to maximize scoring potential.

4. Aim for the center of the green as there are only two bunkers accounting for 3% of total around it - this should give you plenty of room to work with on your approach shots if you hit them accurately enough!
