Crestview Country Club (North Course) Hole by Hole - 5th Hole

Championship Tee Strategy:

The championship tee on Hole 5 at Crestview Country Club's North Course presents a challenging Par 3 with water and bunkers in play. With a distance of 194 yards, this hole requires accuracy and strategy to avoid hazards and reach the relatively small green area of 6356 sq ft. The altitude, temperature, and wind conditions should also be taken into account when selecting clubs to optimize ball flight and scoring potential throughout the four seasons.

For low handicappers, it is important to aim for the center of the green as there are fairway bunkers strategically placed on both sides. A well-executed shot can result in a birdie or even an eagle opportunity. However, if the wind is strong or against you, it may be wise to club down and take extra precaution with your approach shot.

Pro Tee Strategy:

At a distance of 162 yards, the pro tee on Hole 5 at Crestview Country Club's North Course still poses a challenge for mid-handicappers. The key here is to focus on accuracy rather than power off the tee. Avoiding water and fairway bunkers will be crucial in setting up for an easier approach shot onto this small green.

Men's Tee Strategy:

For men playing from the middle tees at just 125 yards away from the pin, this hole may seem like an easy par opportunity but don't let that fool you. With water lurking behind the green and bunkers surrounding it, precision is still necessary for success.

Women's/Senior Women's Tee Strategy:

From these forward tees measuring only around 115-92 yards away from the pin respectively, high handicappers should focus on avoiding hazards altogether rather than trying to make eagles or birdies. Play smart by aiming towards safer areas such as short of any hazards or towards larger portions of greens where possible.

Regardless of handicap level or tee box used, always pay attention to the wind direction and strength as it can greatly impact your shot. And with only 7% of bunkers on the green, it is not a major concern but still something to be aware of when selecting clubs for your approach shot. Keep these strategies in mind and you'll have a better chance at scoring well on this challenging Par 3 at Crestview Country Club's North Course.
