Quick Caddie Tip
This short par 4 looks driveable for the long hitters, but danger lurks on both sides and a pond waits for anything pulled off line. The smart play is a controlled shot to the fat part of the fairway.

Field Notes
Hole #7 is short on the card but full of temptation. Long hitters may be tempted to go for the green, but trouble lurks left and right.
A pond guards the hole and can catch an errant drive, while the green itself is small and firm and does not forgive a careless approach.
- The pond can catch a pulled or badly sliced tee shot. Stay centered.
- A fairway wood or hybrid down the middle leaves a full, comfortable wedge in.
- The green is small and firm, so take a number you trust rather than forcing it close.
- The hole plays downhill, so it will feel shorter than the yardage suggests.
Putting Tips
This green is small and can run quick given the steep downhill approach into it.
- Firm, quick greens like this one call for a soft touch on the first putt.
- Downhill putts can run well past if you are not committed to speed control.
- Because the green is small, most misses leave a short, makeable second putt.
- Take the downhill approach into account. Putts often break more than they appear to.
