Hole 17 Discussion

The 17th is a short par 4 with out-of bounds along the left side.

The out-of-bounds shouldn’t be in play for a standard shot from the front tees. However, the left-to-right motion needed from the back tees may bring it into play if a shot is poorly played. The OB will also be in play for players attempting to reach the green. Any miss to the left could potentially send the ball of the 18th tee box over the sidewalk and out of play.

Fairway bunkers on both sides can punish greedy shots. A sensible shot played to the center of the fairway should provide a safe wedge in.

The green has a bunker left, and another short-right.
