Par 4 • 430 Yards • Williamsburg, Virginia

Enhanced Content

Tough

The #2 handicap hole at Golden Horseshoe Golf Club demands respect from the opening tee shot. This straight par 4 stretches 430 yards through classic Virginia terrain, presenting a deceptively challenging test that separates skilled players from the field. The absence of major hazards might suggest a straightforward approach, but the hole's true defense lies in its demanding length and compact green complex.

From the tee, golfers face a generous fairway that invites an aggressive drive, yet precision becomes paramount as the approach shot unfolds. The small green requires pinpoint accuracy with mid-to-long irons, rewarding only the most committed swings. Length control proves crucial on the approach, as missing this tight target leaves difficult recovery shots. Golden Horseshoe Golf Club's 14th hole epitomizes strategic golf design, where par feels like a victory.
