Hole 11 Discussion

Neville's second hole immediately suggests that the course has fundamentally changed. The trees that had previously abutted the fairway are replaced by sandy dunes visible ahead. With out-of-bounds on the left side, the tee shot here can be somewhat at mercy of the wind. The hole is short though, so a knockdown iron is an option to stay under the wind. The fairway opens up or the right side, so there is a bit of room to take chances.

The approach up to the green leaves many options. The green isn't too complex, so getting close will leave you a real chance.

"From the back tee, this wonderful hole runs downhill toward the ocean and gives the player a chance to take in the true beauty of links golf. A wide-open fairway greets the player with little-to-no danger. The second shot to a green cut into the dunes demands more precision as the player must contend with the wind, a deep bunker to the left, and the first of several false-front greens. Keep the ball low on your approach and you have a good chance at birdie."
