Welcome to the 8th hole at Oregon Golf Club, The. This par 3 is a challenging one, with a distance of 204 yards from the championship tees and a handicap of 13. As you approach this hole, keep in mind that it has been designed to test your accuracy and strategic thinking.
The tee shot on this hole requires precision as there is only one bunker located near the front left side of the green. With your driver hitting an average distance of 217 yards, I recommend using a club with less power and more control such as a hybrid or long iron. Keep in mind that due to its location on the course, wind can play a factor in your tee shot's direction.
Once you have successfully made it onto the green, take note that it measures at approximately 7093 square feet and slopes towards the back right corner. Be careful not to overshoot your approach shot as there is water surrounding the entire back half of the green.
As for club selection for your approach shot, based on an average drive distance of 217 yards we recommend using either a mid-iron or short iron depending on weather conditions such as altitude or temperature which may impact ball flight distances.
Overall this is considered one of our most challenging holes due to its length and narrow landing area but if played strategically can be conquered by any golfer regardless their skill level. Good luck!
