Opening from a beautifully manicured multi-tiered tee, the 6th is a relatively short par 3 that leads to a green that’s protected by multiple bunkers. Calculating the yardage can be tricky. The tee shot heads downhill, and players feel protected from the wind while standing on the sheltered tee. Yet the nearby lake’s prevailing crosswind moves from right to left. What isn’t felt from the tee often affects the flight of the ball once it gets above the treetops. Players need to calculate the downhill slope and the wind, which can be strong at times. Sometimes they cancel each other out, but it’s often a gamble. Once on the putting surface, staying below the hole is extremely helpful.
