Hole 2 at Ballyowen Golf Club is a hard dogleg left par 4 playing 342 yards from the championship tees. The fairway width on this hole is 45 yards wide, providing plenty of room for an ideal tee shot placement to set up your approach into the green. This hole plays slightly uphill and has two greenside bunkers as a percentage of total that come into play if you miss too far right or long with your approach shot. Depending on conditions, players should consider hitting a driver off the tee in order to get maximum distance and have more options with their approach shots. In colder weather, altitude can cause drives to fly shorter distances so clubbing down may be necessary in such cases.

Club Recommendations
1. Aim your tee shot down the left side of the fairway to get maximum distance and avoid the two greenside bunkers.
2. Consider hitting a driver off the tee in order to have more options with your approach shots, but clubbing down may be necessary if it is colder weather as altitude can cause drives to fly shorter distances.
3. When playing your approach shot into this hole, take into account that it plays slightly uphill and adjust accordingly for any additional distance you need to reach the green.
4. Avoid missing too far right or long with your approach shot as there are two greenside bunkers that come into play if you do so.
