If there’s a hole where you need an accurate drive, it’s #10, a 423 yard par four that doesn’t leave much room for error. Not the longest par four on the course, but there’s trouble left and right from the tee. The green is guarded by bunkers on both sides.

Just like the #1 starting hole, #18 is a 545-yard par five and affords the chance to make one more birdie, maybe to win one of the many Far Oaks in-house tournaments or possibly beat your friends on a Saturday morning, both just as rewarding. With water down the entire right side of the fairway, this hole could be dangerous for the right handed player that has the tendency to make mistakes to the right. Hit your drive left-center of the fairway then lay up short of the island grass bunker. This gives you a good approach shot to the green. A bunker guards the left side of the green and water is on the right.

The greens are generally protected on one side or the other with a bunker so strategically choose your approach and save a visit to the “beach” for your Florida vacation. Although we have recently removed a few bunkers to make our course much more playable for all skills levels. However, #2, #3 and #8 are completely surrounded by sand and force accuracy with your approach. This golf course challenges you to hit solid approach shots consistently on every hole.
