When Arthur Jack Snyder originally designed Mountain Shadows in the early 1960s his pleasant design of the tranquil pond and stream was among the course’s most cherished features. Today the legacy lives on. The modern version at this long one-shotter was simply shifting the green to the edge of the stream. By doing so the view is, to put it bluntly, up the creek. Edged by stone at the right, the long green dribbles down the slope with a welcomed bail-out area to the left. It is here, along this curved embankment at the bail-out, that the seasoned player will learn how to bank a shot much like an Indy-500 driver takes a super-elevated turn. The skillful line to the target is not only one played directly at the green, but includes one played into the bank where it is possible to use the ground to roll a ball onto the green. That ever-present stream is among the hole’s most pesky traits, even though its looks are so inviting and peaceful.
