Welcome to the 10th hole at Memorial Park Golf Course in Houston, Texas! This challenging par 4 measures 453 yards from the Championship tees and has a handicap of 6. The slight dogleg right shape of this hole adds an extra level of difficulty for golfers.
As you approach the tee, take note of your surroundings. The course is located in Houston, which can have hot and humid summers with occasional thunderstorms. In the fall and winter months, temperatures are cooler but still mild. Wind can also be a factor on this course, so keep that in mind when selecting your clubs.
For average golfers hitting around 217 yards off the tee with their driver, it's important to aim towards the left side of the fairway as there is more room for error on that side. With a fairway width of only 25 yards, accuracy is key here.
Once you've found yourself safely on the fairway, it's time to plan your approach shot to the green. At just over 140 yards out from where most players will land their drives (assuming they hit an average distance), using a seven iron should give you enough power to reach this slightly elevated green.
Speaking of greens - did you know that this one measures at just under 6,500 square feet? That may seem large compared to some other courses but remember - it's all about strategy here! Despite having six bunkers scattered throughout this hole (including two located near or on the green), don't let them intimidate you too much as they only make up about two percent of total bunker coverage.
With no water hazards present on Hole #10 and minimal bunkering around its perimeter makes for less obstacles than some other holes at Memorial Park Golf Course; however do not underestimate its challenge level due to its length alone!
In summary: Keep cool during those summer rounds by staying hydrated while playing through these long stretches between holes. When the weather cools down, be sure to layer up and keep an eye on wind speeds as they can greatly affect your ball flight distance.
Good luck out there!
