The bunker in the middle of the fairway makes a layup difficult as well. The average player finally gets a shot at the 16th, a short par four that favors good shotmaking over brute strength. This hole challenges players to hit the tee shot as far left as possible, then work the approach over an enormous bunker to a small green. The 17th is a beautifully deceptive par three. It s only 148 yards from the back tee box to a wide but shallow green.
Any flag set to the right side or in the back of the green brings the bunkers into play.
Check the wind strength and direction before you make your club selection here. As with all the par threes on this course, the best bet is to play safely for the center of the green, take your two-putt par and be happy. Bogies are far more likely than birdies on this hole. The 12th is a classic, straightaway par three with dangerous bunkers in both the front and back of the green. The finishing hole on the South Course is a fun par five.
