About 260 yards to the 4th Green
Comments: Here, or a few yards
beyond, is your position after a good to above average tee
shot. A skilled player will pull a fairway wood or long iron
and put something up around the green. For everyone else
this shot presents an interesting and crucial decision to
make. Depending on wind, there's only a PW to an eight iron
to lay-up in prime position in front of the creek (not
visible from here) where the 3rd shot into the green leaves
about 140. The temptation to use a fairway wood from here is
irresistible. Many players carding double and triple bogies
will look back to this spot in the fairway as the place
where all their trouble began.
