Club Recommendations

Championship Tee: For the low handicapper, this hole sets up perfectly for a controlled driver or fairway wood off the tee. With a distance of 391 yards and a slight dogleg right, aiming for the center of the fairway will give you the best angle for your approach shot onto the green. Keep in mind that Farmington, Utah sits at an elevation of over 4,000 feet above sea level which can impact ball flight. Be mindful of any potential wind conditions as well.

Men's Tee: The medium handicapper should also aim for accuracy off the tee on this hole. With a slightly shorter distance of 371 yards, using a mid-to-long iron may be more appropriate to avoid any potential hazards. As with all holes at Oakridge Country Club, keep in mind how altitude and wind conditions may affect your shots.

Women's Tee: For women golfers playing from this tee box, it is important to focus on finding the fairway first and foremost. At just 354 yards, this hole may seem short but don't let that fool you - water comes into play and there are still two bunkers to contend with near the green.

Senior Women's Tee: The senior women golfer should take note of their club distances when planning their strategy on Hole 8. With only two bunkers in play and plenty of room in front of them before reaching water hazards, focusing on accuracy rather than distance will set up an easier approach shot onto this large green measuring over 7,700 square feet.

Overall Tip: Regardless of handicap or tee box used on Hole 8 at Oakridge Country Club, always pay attention to local weather conditions as they can greatly impact ball flight at high elevations like Farmington, Utah. And remember - keeping your ball out of trouble off the tee will lead to better scoring opportunities!
