Club Recommendations

High Handicapper:

For high handicappers, the 18th hole at Thornblade Club is all about playing smart and avoiding mistakes. With a drive of around 200 yards, aim for the fairway to avoid the six bunkers that are scattered throughout. Keep in mind that with only 2% of the green covered by bunkers, accuracy on approach shots is key. Take into account how altitude and wind may affect your ball flight when selecting clubs for this long hole.

Mid Handicapper:

As a mid handicapper, you have some room to be more aggressive on this challenging par 4. With a drive of around 230 yards, try to hit a slight draw off the tee to set yourself up for an easier approach shot. Aim for the fairway to avoid any trouble from the six bunkers that dot both sides of this dogleg right hole. Remember to consider factors like altitude and wind when making club selections.

Low Handicapper:

For low handicappers looking to make birdie or even eagle on this final hole, precision and strategy are crucial. A powerful drive of over 280 yards will give you an advantage here, but don't let it go too far right as there is water lurking just beyond the fairway edge. The large green area may seem inviting but keep in mind that only 2% of it is covered by bunkers – so focus on hitting accurate approach shots instead.

Weather Conditions:

During summer months at Thornblade Club in South Carolina, expect hot temperatures and high humidity which can impact ball flight distance and control – take extra care with club selection.

In fall and spring seasons when temperatures are cooler with less humidity present - keep an eye out for strong winds which could significantly alter your shot trajectory.

Winter conditions bring colder temperatures which means decreased ball flight distance - adjust accordingly when choosing clubs.
