Hole 10 at Shadowridge Golf Club is a challenging par 4 that measures 388 yards from the championship tees. With a handicap of 8, this hole requires both distance and accuracy to score well. The tee shot should favor the left side of the fairway as there is a slight dogleg right with trees lining the right side. The average golfer can expect to hit their driver about 217 yards, leaving them with approximately a 7 iron for their approach shot.
As you approach the green, be aware that there are three bunkers strategically placed around it, but they only make up about 1% of the total green area. This means that while avoiding these bunkers is important, they shouldn't greatly impact your strategy.
The green itself measures at an ample size of 7615 square feet and has relatively flat curvature making it easier to read putts. However, depending on weather conditions such as altitude or wind speed/direction (which can vary throughout each season), players may need to adjust their club selection accordingly.
For example, during warmer seasons when temperatures are higher and air density is lower, shots may travel farther than usual due to less resistance in the air. Conversely, during colder seasons when temperatures are lower and air density is higher, shots may not fly as far due to increased resistance in the air.
Overall, Hole 10 at Shadowridge Golf Club provides a strategic challenge for golfers of all levels with its mixture of length and precision required off the tee along with careful consideration for weather conditions on approach shots.
