You can hit two of your best shots and still not end up in a good spot on hole 15.
For 17, I now hit a 7 wood and drop to my knees to stick it on a hard 5 pace wide green. When I was competing in the 90s, that green is always sick (15), and it was tough for 20 years. I played as a single maybe ten years ago, and one of the group cramped up walking that hill to the 15 green—we left him and finished out. I didn’t see him again
Played there last month… subtle brag, shot 78 from the 6700 whites. Doubled 3, 4, 15, 16. Birdies on 7 and 11… just keep the ball in play. I was an 8 so that 78 with a 2 diff dropped my handicap to a 7 overnight
