Hole 5 at Texas Rangers Golf Club
Par 4 • 428 Yards • Arlington, Texas
The 14th hole at Texas Rangers Golf Club presents a deceptively straightforward par 4 that rewards precision over power. This 428-yard test features a generous fairway that invites an aggressive tee shot, but the real challenge lies in the approach to a small, well-protected green complex. With minimal hazards cluttering the landscape, golfers can focus purely on course management and shot execution. The straight layout allows players to see their target clearly from the tee, making club selection and strategy paramount. What makes this hole memorable is its demand for two quality shots – a well-positioned drive followed by an accurate approach to find the compact putting surface that doesn't forgive wayward iron play.

Target a 200-yard tee shot to take advantage of the wider fairway section at 36 yards wide, leaving a manageable approach while avoiding the narrower 24-yard section at 250 yards.
Be aware of bunkers positioned at 223 yards from the tee - longer hitters who push past the optimal 200-yard landing zone risk finding sand with aggressive drives.
From the ideal 200-yard tee shot position, you'll face a 228-yard approach to this 428-yard par 4 - plan for a mid to long iron depending on pin position.
The generous 5,462 square foot green (32x33 yards) provides a large target for approach shots, so focus on distance control rather than pinpoint accuracy.
Avoid the temptation to bomb driver - the fairway narrows significantly from 36 yards at 200 yards to just 24 yards at 250 yards, making accuracy more important than distance.
This 428-yard par 4 is ideal for working on your driver accuracy. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
