Welcome to the second hole at Sea Pines Resort - Harbour Town in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. This par 5 is a true test of skill and strategy for golfers of all levels. Playing from the championship tees, this hole measures 502 yards with a handicap of 9. The fairway is approximately 29 yards wide and has a slight dogleg to the right.
As you approach your tee shot on this hole, keep in mind that strong winds can often be a factor here due to its proximity to the ocean. In order to optimize your distance and accuracy, we recommend using a driver off the tee which will give you an average distance of around 217 yards.
The second shot on this hole will require careful consideration as there are four bunkers strategically placed along the fairway. These bunkers are not only challenging but also account for only 2% greenside bunker coverage making them difficult targets for even skilled players. With that being said, it's important to choose your club wisely based on wind conditions and other factors such as altitude or temperature which may impact ball flight.
For most players, we recommend using a long iron or hybrid club for their approach shot towards the green which measures at approximately 6878 sq ft in size. For those who prefer shorter shots into the green, utilizing a pitching wedge with an average distance of about 120 yards would be ideal.
Overall, Hole #2 offers both challenges and opportunities for birdies or pars depending on how well you strategize and execute each shot. Keep these tips in mind as you make your way through this beautiful course throughout every season including summer heat waves or winter chill!
