Hole 15 Discussion

Hole 15 is a tricky par 4 with an uphill drive to a tilted plateau. The main danger for the tee shot is in hitting into the trees on the right, which is easy to do given the prevailing hurting left-to-right wind and the strong left-to-right tilt of the land. Check how much the trees are moving up by the Legion of Honor for a sense of how strong the wind might be.

The approach from or near the top of the plateau is more straightforward, though not without its challenges. Pushed balls that avoid the greenside bunker may end up with an even worse fate as the dip next to the green can kick balls out of play into a large patch of blackberry bushes. Long is likely to be in big trouble as well. However, the green is welcoming and should provide a good putt for birdie if the player makes a solid approach shot.
