Club Recommendations

Low Handicapper (280+ yards):

As a low handicapper, you have the power to hit a long drive on this challenging par 4. However, don't let that tempt you into taking unnecessary risks. The best strategy for this hole is to aim for the right side of the fairway and avoid the bunker on the left. This will give you a clear approach shot to the green. Keep in mind that precision is key when approaching this small green with only one bunker protecting it.

Mid Handicapper (~230+ yards):

For mid handicappers, hitting a good drive off the tee is crucial on this hole. Aim for the center or right side of the fairway to avoid any trouble on your second shot. With its smaller size and only one bunker guarding it, accuracy is important when approaching this green.

High Handicapper (~200+ yards):

As a high handicapper, focus on making solid contact off the tee rather than trying to hit it as far as possible. Aiming for the center or right side of the fairway will give you an easier second shot towards this small green with only one bunker protecting it.

Weather Considerations:

Be mindful of potential wind conditions and altitude changes that could affect your ball flight on this hole. Adjust your club selection accordingly and take note of how these factors may impact your shots.

Percent of Bunker On Green:

With only 3% percent of bunkers located around this smaller sized green, players should not be too concerned about landing in sand here unless they miss their approach entirely.

Overall,

Hole 5 at Indian Creek Golf Course (Gray Hawk) requires accuracy over distance off both tee shots and approaches due to its smaller sized green protected by just one bunker. Take into account weather conditions such as wind and altitude changes while choosing clubs appropriately based upon handicap level.
