yards Par 4 Another
outstanding Par 4. We call this the "Tongue Hole" because the green
looks like a big tongue that has a false front, meaning you can't hit it short
of the ridge or the ball rounds back down the front to the fairway. This tough
par 4 requires a well-played drive as bunkers are both short right and long left
if you don't keep it left center. Again the trades if any come out to left and
blow drives to the right. Play an aggressive Driver or Fairway Wood between the
bunkers. On the approach, add a club or two to make sure you carry to the top
level and don't under club or a bogey is almost certain as the chip is tricky
and this green breaks to the ocean more than it looks. I
played a good drive to 170 yards and played a 5 iron which I hit 180 to the middle
right And two putted for a great par. Best
Tip: Add a club or two on the approach and fly on the top level of
the green. To
