Club Recommendations
1. When playing Hole 17, be aware of the wind direction and strength as it can affect your shot.
2. Consider using a 7 iron or pitching wedge for your approach shot onto the green due to its size and the bunkers surrounding it.
3. Aim to land in the center of the green as this will give you an easier putt towards par 3 compared to landing on one side or another with more undulations in terrain.
4. Visualize where you want your ball to go before taking your shot so that you have a better chance at hitting it accurately and getting closer to par 3 than if you just hit blindly without any strategy in mind.
5. Take into account temperature changes throughout all four seasons when selecting which club is best for each hole, as this can affect how far balls travel from tee-to-green distances depending on conditions like humidity levels etc..
