Hole 15 at TPC San Antonio (Canyons Course) is a challenging par 5 that measures 575 yards from the championship tees. With a handicap of 4, this hole will require strategy and precision to navigate successfully.
The tee shot on this hole should be aimed towards the left side of the fairway, as there is a slight dogleg left. The fairway is approximately 35 yards wide, so accuracy off the tee is crucial. For an average golfer who hits their driver around 217 yards, it may be wise to use a hybrid or long iron off the tee in order to find the narrow landing area.
Once in play, golfers will face a long approach shot into one of TPC San Antonio's largest greens at 7523 square feet. The green has only one percent of its total area covered by greenside bunkers, making them less of a concern for most players.
However, with water not coming into play on this hole and only ten bunkers scattered throughout the course overall, distance control and accuracy are key factors for success here. A good target yardage for an average golfer using their pitching wedge would be around 120 yards out from the pin.
It's important to note that weather conditions can greatly impact club selection on this hole. In warmer temperatures or higher altitudes where balls tend to fly further than usual, it may be necessary to adjust club selection accordingly in order to avoid overshooting your intended target.
Overall, Hole 15 at TPC San Antonio (Canyons Course) requires strategic thinking and precise execution in order to conquer its challenges and come away with a solid score.
