Enhanced Content

Tough

The #1 handicap hole at Oakridge Country Club demands respect from the first tee, presenting golfers with a demanding 442-yard par 4 that serves as the ultimate test before the turn. This straight, no-nonsense layout may appear deceptively simple without significant hazards, but its true challenge lies in precision and course management. The generous fairway invites an aggressive tee shot, yet the small green complex requires surgical accuracy on the approach. With length working against most golfers, even accomplished players must execute two quality shots to find the putting surface. The compact green punishes wayward approaches, making par a genuine accomplishment on this finishing hole that perfectly caps the front nine at this respected Farmington layout.
