After struggling to finish
your first hole,
you can now exhale and relax a little.
The elevated tee overlooks an inviting
fairway that should inspire you with a feeling
of power and confidence. (Well, maybe.)

 Playing quite a bit downhill, you'll get extra yardage on
your tee shot and be left with a short iron for your second. There
are a couple of tall trees that will obstruct your approach to the
green if you hit it a little right. You can be hindered by the trees
even if you hit the right side of the fairway. It's about 270 from
the back tee to get it past the trees.
Tip: Watch your alignment. If you line-up straight,
you'll be
aiming toward the trees. Try for the left-center of the fairway.
You can hit it through the fairway and into the trees on the left,
so once again, think about using a 3 wood off the tee.

The look of the shot to the green will make you feel like
you can hit it stiff. The trees on both sides frame the approach,
making it easy to line-up and hit a good shot.
Tip: Go for it. With a short iron and a receptive
green, you can
play right at the pin.

The green is open in front and you can run it on.
Avoid going left or over, you could have a tough recovery.
Tip: Even though this green slopes a lot back-to-front, don't
over-compensate when gauging the speed and break.
HOLE GOAL: No worse than a par.
