The Hole Story Vol. 16, Issue 1 | Page 9

HOLE FIFTEEN PAR 5 The tee shot must avoid out of bounds left on this long, downhill Par 5. The high bank on the right makes the depressed fairway look even narrower. The pond challenges the lay-up shot to the right and out of bounds left. Accuracy on the third shot is needed tot the slightly uphill green with a bunker right and two on the left. ISJA Day 1: ISJA Day 2: ISJA Day 3: HOLE SIXTEEN PAR 4 The Par 4 sixteenth hole starts by hitting the tee shot over a wetland with large berms on the left. Additionally, this shot needs to be kept left because the fairway slopes to the rights towards the dangerous wetland. Berms frame both sides of the fairway as you approach the elevated green. Don’t be long on the second shot—danger looms over the green. ISJA Day 1: ISJA Day 2: ISJA Day 3: HOLE SEVENTEEN PAR 3 The seventeenth hole is the longest Par 3 on the course, which slopes slightly downhill. The green is one of the largest and has a bunker to the right and a very deep bunker left. Great bunker play is needed if in the left trap. The large green also features many mild slopes. ISJA Day 1: ISJA Day 2: ISJA Day 3: HOLE EIGHTEEN PAR 5 The finishing hole is a long Par 5 through a canyon of berms to a narrow fairway. The second shot needs to be kept to the left to avoid the pond on the right. After this shot, don’t forget to take a glimpse of the beautiful stucco pump house with waterwheel. The final approach shot needs to be very accurate. The green is surrounded by high berms with a pot bunker left and a very deep and steep bunker to the right.
