Hole 4 at Caves Valley Golf Club is a 224-yard par 3 with a challenging championship tee shot. The green area measures 14955 sq ft and has one greenside bunker, representing 1% of the total green area. This hole can be quite demanding depending on weather conditions; during the summer months, the altitude and warmer temperatures could cause your ball to fly further than expected while in winter, the colder air will keep it shorter. Depending on wind direction and speed, club selection for both tee shots and approach shots can vary greatly. With an average drive of 217 yards off the championship tees, you may want to consider using a 5 or 6 iron for your tee shot as well as when approaching from other tees. A 7 iron should be sufficient if playing from either pro or men’s tees while women’s players may need to use their pitching wedge from this distance. Being mindful of water hazards that come into play near some of these tees is also important in order to maximize scoring opportunities here at Hole 4 at Caves Valley Golf Club!
