Club Recommendations

Low Handicapper Playing Tip:

For low handicappers, this hole offers a great opportunity for birdie or even eagle. With a drive of 280+ yards, you can easily reach the green in one shot. However, accuracy is key here as water and bunkers come into play. Aim to hit your tee shot towards the middle of the green to avoid any potential hazards and secure a good scoring chance.

Mid Handicapper Playing Tip:

For mid handicappers, this par 3 requires some strategic thinking. With an average drive distance of 230+ yards, it may be tempting to go for the green in one shot. But with only three bunkers on the course and water lurking nearby, it's important to prioritize accuracy over distance. Consider laying up short of the green and using your wedge game to get close for a better chance at par.

High Handicapper Playing Tip:

High handicappers should approach this hole with caution. With an average drive distance of 200+ yards, reaching the green in one shot may not be feasible. Instead, focus on hitting your tee shot safely towards the fairway or layup area before attempting your approach shot onto the green. Avoiding any potential hazards will give you a better chance at avoiding big numbers on this challenging par 3.

Weather Impact:

The weather conditions at Glen Club can greatly impact how you play this hole throughout each season. In warmer temperatures during summer months, balls tend to fly farther due to less dense air at higher altitudes - keep that in mind when selecting clubs! Additionally, strong winds can make it difficult for players to control their shots accurately - so aim accordingly.

Bunker Strategy:

With only three bunkers on this hole and just a small percentage (2%) located around the edges of the large putting surface - these are considered "fairway bunkers". Keep them out of sight by aiming away from trouble spots off-the-tee and focus on hitting the green in regulation. If you do find yourself in a bunker, use your sand wedge to get out and aim for an up-and-down par save.
