Hole #6

Hole #6

The sixth hole at Lake Panorama National offers a decision off the tee box depending on what tee's you are playing. From the tips, the hole is a healthy 423 yards and requires a driver to reach the dog leg for a long to mid iron approach shot into the green. From the yellow tees, it measures only 334 yards. With that short yardage, some players are tempted to get as close to the green as possible with a driver while the smarter play is lay up at around 125 yards with a fairway wood or iron. From the shorter tees, the hole curves right to left more then a player thinks and with pines on the right side, curving the ball is ideal to land in the fairway. Once on the green, front pin locations are cupcakes compared to the back part of the green that features a hugh hill in the middle. Walking off this hole with a par is a good score.
