Hole #1 – The Post -330 yard – Par 4

January 11, 2017 by cathy

Difficult opening hole fraught with danger. Out of bounds down the right-hand side with prevailing winds generally coming off the left. Additionally, there’s a water hazard and shuck to carry off the tee.Driver is the most popular club for golfers but it brings the out of bounds into play. Ideally hitting 3 or 5 wood down the left side of the fairway will leave an approach inside 150 yards. The green is protected by a large bunker on the left-hand side approaches hitting the green generally kick right. Hitting a good tee shot will give you a good birdie opportunity.    … [Read more...] about Hole #1 – The Post -330 yard – Par 4

Hole #2 – Canal Turn- 513 yard – Par 5

January 10, 2017 by cathy

The longest hole on the golf course, a risk-reward dogleg with out of bounds down the right-hand side the entire length of the hole. There are two shucks and a water hazard to contend with off the tee with a lateral water hazard down the left-hand side.Golfers have the choice of hitting a long iron off the tee to the corner which leaves a long second shot even to lay up or alternatively hit driver over the corner. The ideal line would be to hit it at the water tower in the distance which drastically improves the second shot bringing the green into range for big hitters. The approach to the green can be difficult as the ball tends to kick left, so it is important to aim at the right edge of the green and let the ball feed down. … [Read more...] about Hole #2 – Canal Turn- 513 yard – Par 5

Hole #3 – The Chair – 163 yard – Par 3

January 9, 2017 by cathy

The first of four tricky Par 3’s here at Down Royal. This hole has undergone significant changes over the past couple of years with the construction of a new tee box, re-designing of protective bunkers and removal of out of bounds area through the green to incorporate a heavy rough area in its place.Depending on wind direction the standard shot would be played with a short/mid-iron to a green that is one of the firmest on the golf course. With three bunkers surrounding the green and out of bounds on the right-hand side, this hole has its own fair share of danger given the relatively short yardage. Ideally, a high cut would be the desired shape of shot to play into the green to get the ball to land soft to give you the best chance of a birdie or better! (Fingers crossed) … [Read more...] about Hole #3 – The Chair – 163 yard – Par 3
