Par 4 • 448 Yards • Las Vegas, Nevada

Enhanced Content

Tough

Southern Highlands Golf Club's 14th hole presents a deceptively challenging par 4 that demands precision over power. This straight 448-yard test features a generous fairway that invites aggressive tee shots, but the real challenge lies in the approach to a small, subtly contoured green. Without bunkers or water to distract, golfers must focus on distance control and pin placement, as the compact putting surface punishes wayward iron shots. The hole's understated elegance reflects Southern Highlands' desert sophistication, where strategic thinking trumps brute force. Players who respect the green's demanding nature will find scoring opportunities, while those who attack recklessly often walk away frustrated.

Strategy Tips

tee shot

Target a 220-240 yard tee shot to reach the wider portion of the fairway, which opens up to 43 yards at the 250-yard mark, giving you the best angle and room for error on this 448-yard par 4.

hazard warning

Avoid the fairway bunker positioned at 298.5 yards - longer hitters who try to cut the corner or bomb their drive risk finding this sand trap, leaving a difficult approach to the green.

approach

From an ideal drive position, you'll face a mid-iron approach of roughly 200-220 yards to a compact green measuring just 22 by 31 yards - club selection and accuracy are critical on this smaller target.

green

With only 3,789 square feet of putting surface, this green demands precise approach shots - missing this compact target will likely result in challenging up-and-down opportunities.

hazard warning

Two greenside bunkers at 440.5 and 423.7 yards frame the approach - these sand traps punish slightly off-line approach shots, so favor the center of the green rather than attacking pin positions.
