Hole 13 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club is a par 4 that measures 372 yards from the Pro tees, 354 yards from the Men's tees and 325 yards from the Women's tees. This slight dogleg right features a wide fairway of 49 yards in width with 5 bunkers scattered throughout. Greenside bunkers make up 3% of all bunkers on this hole. With mild temperatures across all four seasons, wind can be a factor off the tee as well as when approaching the green due to its elevated location. Depending on your skill level, you may want to consider using either driver or 3-wood off the tee to avoid any potential hazards while still leaving yourself with an approach shot under 200 yards for most golfers (driver ~217 yds; 7 iron ~140 yds; pitching wedge ~120 yds).

Playing Tips:
1. Consider using a driver or 3-wood off the tee to avoid any potential hazards while still leaving yourself with an approach shot under 200 yards for most golfers.
2. Take into account the wind factor when hitting your tee shot, as it can be a major factor on this hole due to its elevated location.
3. Be aware of the five bunkers scattered throughout the fairway - they may come into play if you hit your drive too far right or left.
4. Pay special attention to greenside bunkers, which make up 3% of all bunkers on this hole and could result in lost strokes if you are not careful with your approach shots.
5. Make sure you select the appropriate tees depending on your skill level; Men's/Women's tees will provide shorter yardages than Pro tees but will still require accuracy and precision from both your tee shot and approach shots in order to score well on this hole!
