Oakridge Country Club Hole by Hole - 9th Hole

Low Handicapper Strategy:

For low handicappers, the key to success on this hole is precision and risk management. With a drive of 280+ yards, they have the option to take an aggressive line towards the green, but must be careful not to go long as water comes into play. The slight dogleg left can also be avoided by aiming for the center of the fairway off the tee. This will set up a clear approach shot and minimize any potential hazards. Additionally, with only two bunkers on this hole, low handicappers should feel confident in their ability to avoid them and focus on scoring opportunities.

Mid Handicapper Strategy:

Mid handicappers should also aim for the center of the fairway off the tee to avoid any trouble on this challenging hole. With a drive of approximately 230+ yards, they may not have as much room for error compared to low handicappers when taking an aggressive line towards the green. However, if conditions are favorable (such as wind or altitude), mid handicappers can consider going for it in two shots with precise club selection.

High Handicapper Strategy:

For high handicappers who typically hit drives around 200+ yards, avoiding mistakes is crucial on this difficult par 4. Aiming for the center of fairway off the tee is recommended to set up a manageable approach shot without having to navigate around water or bunkers near or around green side areas.

Weather Impact:

The altitude and wind conditions at Oakridge Country Club may greatly impact ball flight throughout all four seasons. High winds could make it more challenging for players trying to take an aggressive line towards green while lower temperatures could result in shorter distances than usual.

Percent Bunker On Green Lingo:

With only 2% bunker coverage on this large green area measuring at over 7,500 square feet, golfers don't need worry about getting caught in greenside bunkers but rather fairway bunkers if they stray too far off the center of the fairway.
