Welcome to the second hole at Bradenton Country Club in beautiful Bradenton, Florida. This par 3 is a challenging one, with a distance of 181 yards from the championship tees and a handicap of 11. The tee shot will require precision and accuracy as there are two bunkers strategically placed near the green.
The best approach for this hole is to aim for the center of the green, taking into consideration any potential wind conditions that may impact ball flight. With an average drive distance of 217 yards, it would be wise to use a mid-iron such as a 7 iron which can carry approximately 140 yards.
As you make your way towards the green, keep in mind that water comes into play on this hole. It is located on the right side of the fairway and can easily come into play if you hit your tee shot too far to that side. However, don't let this intimidate you - stay focused and trust your club selection.
Speaking of greenside hazards, there are also two bunkers surrounding this relatively large green area measuring at approximately 7093 square feet. However, only about three percent of these bunkers are actually on or around the green itself - so don't worry too much about finding yourself in one unless you have an errant approach shot.
Overall, Hole #2 at Bradenton Country Club demands accuracy off the tee and strategic decision making when approaching the green. Keep these tips in mind throughout all four seasons as weather conditions may vary but always remember to trust your abilities and enjoy playing one of Florida's finest courses.
