Hole 16 at Sea Pines Resort - Harbour Town is a challenging par 4 that requires precision and strategy. From the championship tees, this hole measures 395 yards and has a handicap of 16, making it one of the more difficult holes on the course. The tee shot must navigate through a hard dogleg left with water running along the entire left side of the fairway.

In order to successfully play this hole, our golfer should aim their driver for approximately 217 yards off the tee to avoid any potential hazards. This will leave them with a manageable approach shot into the green. However, they must be careful not to hit their drive too far as there is out-of-bounds on the right side of the fairway.

The approach shot onto this green requires accuracy as well, with only four bunkers scattered around its perimeter and greenside bunkers accounting for just 2% of its total area. Our golfer's average distance for a pitching wedge would be ideal here, which is about 120 yards according to their club distances.

Weather conditions can greatly impact how this hole plays throughout different seasons at Sea Pines Resort - Harbour Town. In warmer weather or during summer months when humidity levels are high, balls may travel slightly further in distance due to lower air density.

With precise shots off both tee and approach combined with an understanding of how weather conditions may influence ball flight, our golfer will have their best chance at conquering this tough test on one of America's premier golf courses.
