This par four should be as easy as either number one or two. Should be. It’s straight. It’s not that long. The fairway is fairly wide. Why is it then that the group of trees on the right seems too often to draw my ball into it? Or avoiding that fate, I seem to go left into the rough? And let’s not even talk about the classic northern hardwoods forest that lines the entire right side of the fairway. Yet par is doable here.

Of course this green includes a heavy crease on the left side—don’t even roll down into it. Whatever you do, don’t go long into the rough. And, oh, did I mention the gracious apple tree on the right side of the green? Only in my worst nightmares.
