Sand Hills Golf Club Hole by Hole - 12th Hole

Hole 12 at Sand Hills Golf Club is a par 4 that plays 417 yards from the Championship tees and has a handicap rating of 1. It's a slight dogleg right with an 82-yard wide fairway and two bunkers, one of which lies 5% greenside. The green area measures 9089 sq ft.

In summer months, temperatures in Mullen can reach up to 90°F but due to its altitude there are usually low winds making this hole ideal for hitting driver off the tee. However, golfers should be mindful of the slight dogleg as it may require more precision than normal when selecting their club on approach shots into the large green. In winter months temperatures drop significantly so golfers should take extra care when calculating ball flight distances as colder air will reduce carry distance on all clubs including driver and irons by 10-20%. Greenside bunkers also come into play here so accuracy is key if you want to avoid them altogether or set yourself up for an easy escape shot if you do end up in one.
