How to Play: River Ridge Golf Club Hole No. 2

Order Photos

Yardage/Handicap: 402/9

Description: This hole offers an uphill blind tee shot where players must aim at directional flag. The fairway is dotted with two bunkers on the right side but if the players aim at the directional flag they should not come into play. There's not too much other trouble until players reach the green where there are several pot bunkers. The green is fairly large and has plenty of undulation to make putting difficult.

How to play it: Because this hole features a blind tee shot into the wind the key is to get as much distance as possible while staying as close to the directional flag as possible. Aim a little left to avoid the two fairway bunkers on the right. A solid tee shot will leave players with a mid to short iron approach shot. Two of the three bunkers around the green are on the right so it's best to aim a bit left. The green is large but there is plenty of undulation making it difficult to get near the flag on the approach. Stay below the hole.
