Green is fairly flat.
This is a valley between 2 hills. There is a road that runs between the two of them over a bridge. This also creates a
second route to the hole.
Far left slide shows the upper route. A well placed 3 or 5 wood will get through a gap in the trees and up the hill
onto a patch of fairway. The road is also running through this area. A very well placed ball towards the bottom right
of this area will allow a cut shot to the left of the next hill. Sand protects the bunker if you are short.
Middle left slide shows the upper route as well. If not in position to go left at the green, you can follow the road
cross to the second hill. There is a drastic drop off next to the road down to the green. Rock makes up the bottom
of the hill to bounce balls onto the green. In perfect position off the tee, it might be possible to hit a perfect
cut shot following the road and land on the green clean. If you're short, you hope it bounces on the road, kicks over
the hill, bounces off the rock, and lands on the green.
Middle right slide shows the conservative approach. Here, the bridge will come into play as higher irons and higher
wood will not make it over. A lower shot under the bridge to the next fairway leaves an easy shot into the green.
Far right slide shows an eagle approach from the valley. A well placed shot off the tee will leave a possible shot
to the green. Players will have to cut it around the second hill and avoid the bridge pillars. This is a driver or
3w as it's a 275+ yard shot. Land under the pine trees slopes to the water and a short shot will end up wet. The
sand might help keep some shots dry.
