HOLE #14 <br />The elevated tee for the short par four fourteenth provides a delightful view of the landing <br />area. Huge trees protect the tumpoint of this dogleg on the right. Longer players may <br />play something other than a driver on the tee shot. The green is protected by two bunkers <br />right and one bunker left. The left of the green slopes decidedly away, forcing approach <br />play to be deadly accurate. <br />A new elevated back tee should be built for visibility reasons and also a new forward tee <br />should be added. Both of the left &irway bunkers should be reshaped with new drainage <br />and sand. The first greenside bunker right should be reshaped since the trees block its <br />view. The other right bunker should be moved closer to the green for strategic reasons. <br />The left bunker should be moved away firom the putting surfece and become a fore­ <br />bunker. This is a consistent theme throughout the golf course. <br />HOLE #15 <br />The Fifteenth hole plays somewhat longer than the actual yardage since the green is <br />elevated on a ridge line approximately 15 feet above the first tumpoint. The tee shot lacks <br />definition though it does play between mature trees left and right. The landing has the <br />same drainage problems, which exist on many of the holes. Two fairway bunkers are set <br />into the slope (in rough) on the left approximately 100 yards short of the green. Mature <br />trees guard the left side of the green area while two bunkers are positioned on the right. <br />However, the second bunker which is nearer the right edge of the putting surfiice, is <br />blocked from view by the raised lip of the first bunkei <br />The back tee should be rebuilt and combined with the back tee on # 18 to provide <br />additional tec^\^ ground. Two new forward tees will be added to the left of the existing <br />cart path to provide a difterent angle of approach to the driving landing area. The left two <br />fttirway bunkers should be rebuilt and positioned as such to provide a target to aim at off <br />the tees. The greenside bunker right, and short of the green will be lowered to provide a <br />clear view of tlie bunker behind it. Views of the creek could be enhanced with selective <br />placement of rock in various portions along the creek. This would visually strengthen the <br />hole. <br />HOLE #16 <br />The tees for the par four sixteenth are elevated 30 feet above the feirway, which provides <br />a spectacular view of this hole. However, the hillside on the right partially blocks the view <br />of the fairway and rough from the back tee. Since Highway 12 was constructed near this <br />tee, the teeing area is quite noisy. The green, which is surrounded by three bunkers, is <br />slightly elevated. The backdrop, with mature trees behind, makes the putting sur&ce <br />aesthetically pleasing.
