I was standing behind the green looking back at this interesting little dogleg right around the lake and could not help but snap a picture on this beautiful fall day. Click on it and you can see the 150 marker back across the water. It is probably the easiest par 4 on the front nine at George Dunne, but don’t breathe too easily because there is plenty of treachery. Yardage book? We don’t have no yardage books here dude. Just eyeball the 150 marker with respect to the water to get a feel how far to hit your tee shot. I leave the driver in the bag and hit a fairway wood. But don’t leave too much in the bag because the shorter the approach, the less daunting the carry over the water. Just hope and pray that the pin is not tucked right because it turns the green into a postage stamp. And believe me, you do not want to be in the bunker hitting back towards the water.
