Tough

As Forest Dunes transitions from Tom Weiskopf's heavily wooded front nine through the Huron National Forest to the dramatic sand dunes terrain, the 10th hole marks the beginning of an entirely different golf experience. This opening hole of the back nine showcases the ancient glacial dunes that give the course its distinctive dual personality.

Strategy Tips

hazard warning

This 439-yard par 4 presents a significant strategic challenge with no fairway width recorded at both 200 and 250 yards, indicating either severe narrowing or complete obstruction at these critical distances. Plan your tee shot accordingly to avoid trouble zones.

approach

The approach shot will likely be from an awkward distance given the tee shot constraints. The green measures 4,504 square feet (34x29 yards), providing a reasonably sized target, but accuracy will be paramount given the hole's demanding nature.

green

With the green dimensions at 34 yards wide by 29 yards deep, you have a decent-sized target for your approach. However, given Tom Weiskopf's design philosophy and the hole's challenging layout, expect subtle undulations that will test your putting skills.

hazard warning

Multiple bunkers are strategically positioned throughout the hole (at distances of 2,319,668.6y, 2,319,650.1y, and 2,319,571.2y from the tee). While these measurements seem unusual, they indicate significant sand hazards that will require careful navigation and course management.
