Hole 5 Discussion

The 5th hole is an interesting par 4. It’s uphill, and the green is quite sloping, so focus on position into the green. The green may be drivable for the longest hitters, but for most people, there are tradeoffs to the two landing locations.

A tee shot to the right side will allow the player to run the ball onto the green with their approach. This can be quite advantageous if the pin is on the right side.

A tee shot to the center, short of the waste area will lead to a chip into the wide green. This can be advantageous if the pin is on the left side.

The green slopes strongly back to front, with challenging undulations. Being close to the flagstick is critical to avoiding a three-putt.
