Like many things in nature, the deceptively beautiful par 3, 17^th hole is dangerous for the unwary. A small multileveled green protected by two bunkers on the right and trees and water on the left as well as behind, makes you wonder if you should lay up, gofor the middle of the green or try your luck and aim for the pen.

I had the privilege of playing with Head Professional, Jim Schanzenbaker. Like
most true golf professionals that I have met over the years, he loves golf and is patient with those who do not have his skills. Before he and I met, I had the pleasure of listening to him instruct. If you are interested in learning golf or have a question about your technique, your time will be well spent working with Jim.

As Jim would say

"don’t let the creek, narrow fairway or trees affect you,

focus on the ball and trust your swing." After I hit, Jim said "don’t worry about it. This is a par 5. You have two more strokes to get to the green."
