Cottage Course - Hole #6

This 333-yard par 4 is one of the tightest driving holes on the course. It plays straight uphill as the fairway slopes from left to right. A right to left ball flight will help prevent shots from kicking through the hard fairway into the woods and out-of-bounds. Missing left here is far better than missing to the right. Just remember to be careful of the poplars overhanging the left side of the fairway and the sand traps 230 yards from the tee. It is 250 yards to carry these traps and doing so will leave a wedge approach into this three-tiered green. Try to be on the same level as the flag, but if not, at least make your mistake below the hole. Being over this green leaves a blind uphill pitch to a green sloping away. Missing short of the green or to the right in the two deep bunkers makes for an interesting par save also. People like to be aggressive with a wedge in their hands, but on a hole like this, birdie can turn into a bogie or worse in a hurry.
