Enhanced Content
Tough

The signature par 4 sixth hole at Woodholme Country Club presents a deceptively challenging test that has humbled golfers for decades. This 444-yard straight-away hole demands both precision and power, with its unforgiving small green serving as the ultimate target. The tee shot plays to a generous fairway that gradually narrows as it approaches the putting surface, requiring strategic positioning for the critical approach shot. What makes this hole particularly memorable is the premium it places on iron play - even a well-struck drive leaves a demanding mid-iron to a compact green that offers little margin for error. The absence of major hazards shifts focus entirely to execution and course management, making Woodholme Country Club hole 6 a true test of fundamental golf skills.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Exercise extreme caution off the tee as the fairway completely disappears at 250 yards, creating a forced layup situation. Target your drive to land well short of the 250-yard mark to ensure you find the fairway.

tee shot

Aim for the 200-yard zone where the fairway is only 12 yards wide - precision is critical here. Consider using a hybrid or long iron off the tee to ensure accuracy over distance.

approach

Plan for a long approach shot of approximately 240+ yards from your conservative tee shot position. This demanding second shot on a 444-yard par 4 requires excellent course management and club selection.

hazard warning

Be aware of bunkers positioned at 403.6 yards from the tee, which could come into play on aggressive approach shots or if you attempt to drive closer to the green area.

green

Target the generous 4,310 square foot green (26x25 yards) with your approach shot, as the large putting surface provides some forgiveness after navigating the challenging fairway layout.
