Play-A-Hole #7

By:
Corey Roberson, Director of Golf

The 7th hole at Cordillera Ranch is our second Par-3 that you will encounter and can look pretty daunting from the tee. The green slopes away from you and to the right while being guarded by a large bunker on the front/right side and a couple of bunkers on the left side. In case you thought long was safe … it’s not — there’s another bunker there, too!

One of the coolest things about #7 is all the different tee box angles. Typically, the Blue tee will float between the left and right tee box — both paying roughly the same yardage depending on the hole location. The Silver tee has the least elevation and is situated to the right. The predominant wind is behind you making the club selection a little more difficult. When the pin is on the front of the green, a short miss in-line with the pin will leave a reasonable up-and-down. When it’s on the right side of the green, you want to shift your aimpoint more towards the center. The back right part of that green slopes away from you and to the right, which makes a direct approach to that hole location very difficult to judge.

See you on the course!
