Club at Carlton Woods, The (Nicklaus Signature) Hole by Hole - 6th Hole

Playing Tips for Low Handicappers:

As a low handicapper, you have the distance and accuracy to take advantage of this short par 4. With your drive averaging over 280 yards, you can easily reach the green with your second shot. However, be cautious as there are six bunkers scattered throughout the fairway and around the green. Aim for the left side of the fairway off the tee to avoid any potential trouble and set yourself up for an approach shot to a small green with minimal hazards.

Playing Tips for Mid-Handicappers:

For mid-handicappers who average around 230 yards off the tee, this hole offers a great opportunity for birdie or par. With only one percent of bunker on green, there is not much risk involved if you choose to go for it in two shots. Keep in mind that there are still six bunkers along the way so aim towards the center or right side of fairway off the tee to avoid them.

Playing Tips for High Handicappers:

High handicappers should focus on avoiding mistakes on this hole rather than trying to make eagles like their low handicap counterparts. With an average drive of 200+ yards, it's best to lay up before reaching any bunkers or hazards that could potentially ruin your scorecard. Play smart by aiming towards right-center of fairway off tee and setting yourself up with an easy approach shot onto a small green.

Weather Considerations:

The Club at Carlton Woods experiences hot summers and mild winters due its location in Spring, Texas. During summer months when temperatures can exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit, balls tend to fly further due to thinner air density at higher altitudes which could impact club selection on this hole.
