JB and TC will like this Par 5
So I went to a wedding in Winston Salem, NC on saturday and played the Championship Course of Tanglewood Park, this is a Robert Trent Jones Course and you could tell because it had 106 bunkers on it. Needless to say I quickly learned how to play out of bunkers. So I get to the 17th hole which is a par 5. it read 540 yards and you could not see the landing area. Just aim for the middle and hope it goes straight. I took out my driver and bombed away straight down the fairway. All I can think about is JB and TC talking about playing to a number, so I say....I am going to play to a number depending on how far out I am. Upon arriving to my ball I see I am 225 yards out but more importantly I see this......
Its prob a little difficult for you to see because I took this pic with my phone and said JB and TC are gonna love this...from 100 yards in it was
NOTHING BUT BUNKERS!!!
.....6 Bunkers surrounded this green so I was thinking, man if I lay up like my some guys/girls on this site talk about then I still have to deal with these bunkers. So I decided to hit my hybrid 3, I choked down on it and fired away. I ended up in the bunker on the right side of the green, pin high. I got out of the bunker and 2 putted for a par. Needless to say, I sure was pretty happy with this outcome. Check out the link to the course and do the virtual tour of the course....it is hole 17.
