The daunting Hole 3 from the tee box
Hole #1
Hole 1
The starting hole at Sumac Ridge Golf & Country Club Ltd is a Par 3, slightly downhill and guarded in front by a pond. Most who possess local knowledge will attempt to “eliminate” the pond from the tee shot by trying to hit a slight draw, short right, and use the 10 to 15 foot elevated slope to help move the ball to the putting surface.
Hole #2
Hole 2
The second hole has a slightly elevated green to play, too. Any shot that’s long, left or right leaves the player a difficult “blind” pitch to a green now running away from you. Anything middle green is good here.
Hole #3
Hole 3
The third hole is our signature hole. Although only 150 yards, it is all carry over a canyon. The green is generous in size; however, being slightly above the tee, the surface is not visible, so it makes the shot even more daunting. High, long and left is the only viable miss. Enjoy!
Hole #4
Hole 4
For most, the fourth hole is a long iron or hybrid, housing both sides, canyon right of green. Anything short or short left is a decent play.
Hole #5
Hole 5
The fifth hole has a downhill elevation change of 75 feet, with a long, deep green that is only 10 paces wide. Anything long and left is the “big house” jail. It’s important to not over-club here. Finish with the back of the left hand at the flag if you really want to remain jail-free.
Hole #6
Hole 6
The sixth hole is a short par 4 with an O.B. right, rock of Gibraltar left. You may get a favourable kick; however, a shot “on a string” could reward you with an eagle.
Hole #7
Hole 7
On the seventh hole, most golfers use a fairway wood or a 3, 4, or 5 iron. Coming into the green from the left side is most favourable, as the terrain runs into the green from that side.
Hole #8
Hole 8
The eighth has a downhill elevation change of 100 ft. You should aim to hit the green; you will repair a huge juicy ball mark, which you won't mind. Because these greens hold, you have a birdie putt. Your playing partners may envy you by the time they are done.
Hole #9
Hole 9
The final hole is a great finish at 160 yards with a downhill elevation of 60 feet. It “cheats” for you left or right, as the green is below the right and left side. Finish with a birdie and the “odd” other will be quickly forgotten.
