Hole 6 at TPC San Antonio (Oaks Course)
Par 4 • 403 Yards • San Antonio, Texas
The sixth hole at TPC San Antonio's Oaks Course presents a deceptively straightforward par 4 that demands precision over power. This 403-yard test features a generous fairway that invites aggressive tee shots, but the real challenge lies in the approach to a small, well-defended green complex. Without significant hazards cluttering the landscape, golfers must rely on course management and accurate iron play to score well. The straight layout allows players to see their target clearly, but the compact green demands a committed approach shot with proper distance control. What makes this hole memorable is its emphasis on fundamental golf skills—reward awaits those who execute solid tee shots and precise approaches to the demanding putting surface.

Target your tee shot to land around 200 yards where the fairway is at its widest point of 24 yards, giving you the best angle and room for error before the fairway dramatically narrows.
Avoid aggressive drives beyond 250 yards as the fairway pinches down to just 12 yards wide, making accuracy extremely difficult and increasing the risk of finding trouble.
Be aware of bunkers positioned at 286.6 yards from the tee - longer hitters who try to bomb their drive will need to carry or navigate around these strategically placed hazards.
From a well-positioned tee shot at 200 yards, you'll have approximately 203 yards remaining to a relatively compact green, making this a mid-to-long iron approach that demands precision.
Target the center of this moderately-sized 3,983 square foot green (21x34 yards) as the compact dimensions leave little room for error on approach shots, especially from longer distances.
This 403-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.
