Hole 9 at Country Club at Muirfield Village is a 392-yard par 4 with a slight dogleg to the right. The fairway width of 50 yards provides plenty of room off the tee, but it’s important to note that there are 5 bunkers placed strategically along the fairway and 2% of those bunkers are greenside. Depending on your skill level, you should be able to reach this hole in two shots with an average drive distance of 217 yards for men and 180 yards for women. In order to get close enough for an approach shot, you may need to hit a hybrid or 3 wood from either tee box due to the length of this hole; however, depending on wind conditions and local weather (which can vary greatly over each season), it might be possible to reach this green in two shots with driver + 7 iron or even driver + pitching wedge. This will require taking into account altitude changes as well as temperature/wind effects which could cause your ball flight trajectory play longer than expected from certain tees boxes during different seasons.

Club Recommendations
Playing Tips:
1. Take into consideration the altitude changes, temperature, and wind conditions when determining your club selection off the tee box.
2. Aim for the center of the fairway to avoid any of the 5 bunkers placed strategically along it.
3. Use a hybrid or 3 wood from either tee box if you don't have enough distance to reach this hole in two shots with an average drive distance; this will help set up your approach shot closer to the green.
4. If possible, use driver + 7 iron or even driver + pitching wedge for your second shot as this can help get you close enough for an approach shot on this long par 4 hole.
5. Be aware that 2% of these bunkers are greenside so be sure to factor that into your game plan when aiming for the green in two shots!
