Hole-8 Par 5

The Majestic Par 5: A Test of Composure

This long Par 5 offers a breathtaking view from an elevated tee, surrounded by stunning mountain vistas and lush greenery. Despite the wide fairway, don’t let the beauty distract you—precision is paramount.

The Strategy: Aim for the center-right of the fairway on your drive. The golden rule for this hole: Avoid the rough at all costs. Straying from the fairway can instantly turn a potential Birdie or Par into a score you’d rather forget.

The Approach: Whether you hit it long or short off the tee, the real game starts with your second shot. A water hazard guards the approach, followed by a steep greenside bunker. The green itself is uniquely figure-8 shaped, pinched in the middle, with the left side sitting higher than the right and sloping sharply toward the bunker.

Pro Tip: Be cautious if you find yourself in the grass hollow behind the green; chipping back toward the water-facing slope is treacherous. Stay calm, stick to your plan, and a Par is well within reach.
