Hole 14 Discussion

The 14th is an uphill par 5 that is relatively straightforward. The tee shot plays to a blind ridge with a bunker on its left side. Clearing this bunker shouldn’t be too difficult for longer hitters, but contours on the right side can kick balls into it.

After the drive players have a lot of area to work with and should be able to play to whichever number they want, or even go for the green if they are long enough.

The green slopes mostly back-to-front, with two fairway bunkers on either side. Playing over the back is a concern, as the ground drops off on all sides in the back. It’s a very approachable hole, but there is certainly trouble for anyone who makes a mistake.
