Club Recommendations
For low handicappers, the best approach is to aim for the green in two shots and potentially make an eagle. With a drive of 280+ yards, they should have enough distance to reach the green on their second shot. However, they must be careful not to go too far left as there are fairway bunkers that can come into play. For medium handicappers, it's important to focus on accuracy over distance. Aiming for the center of the fairway will give them a good chance at reaching the green in three shots and setting up a potential birdie opportunity.
High handicappers should prioritize avoiding mistakes on this hole. It may be tempting to try and hit a long drive, but it's more important for them to find the fairway off the tee. With drives averaging around 200+ yards, they may need an extra shot or two to reach the green so playing smart and avoiding hazards is key.
The small percentage of bunker on this hole means that players shouldn't worry too much about finding themselves in sand traps around the green. However, there are still nine bunkers throughout this hole so it's important for all players to avoid these hazards when possible. Overall, with no water hazards and ample space in both fairways and greenside areas, Hole 1 at Texas Rangers Golf Club provides opportunities for all skill levels while also challenging players with its length and slight dogleg left curvature.
