    Default How will you play the 15th at Victoria GC?

    http://www.victoriagolf.com.au/cms/course/hole-15/



    Listed at 289m and Index 17, this drivable hole is no snack. Trees down the right, many cavernous bunkers down the left. The green drops off sharply to the left and back, so hitting the green is a must.

    I camped next to the green on the final day of the 2010 Melbourne Masters and watched a lot of big names play this hole. Tiger drove the green and canned a monster putt for eagle, but a lot of others had to scramble just to make par.

    In my defence I think I was suffering from a mild case of heatstroke.

    Another dickwad here, but in my defence I thought I went with the right play - 4 hybrid off the tee should have been a perfect ball to somewhere near the front of the green, but I smashed it out of the middle (by my standards) and it bounced like a super ball and rolled all the way into the left hand bunker. After that it was a game of tennis using the flag as the net. Wipety-wipe.
    Still not playing enough GolfLink | Slightly less terrible stats brought to you by Golfshot - F: 57%, GIR: 23%, UD: 14%, P: 34. Wow, improvement! | Nickent brand ho or tightarse? You be the judge!

    4 wood, gap wedge to 5 ft, sink the putt = 3 simples...!
    As I made birdie I could feel my opposing Captains heart sank as I went 3 or 4 up!

    Drove to the back of the right bunker, blast out, 2 putt par.

    The hole was doubly interesting as me and Mint were dormi in our match. He needed his 2 putt to win but left the first 5ft sort and just missed the next. From memory the 15th was the end of both singles and the match.

    Never underestimate a short par 4 at Victoria!

    5 iron to sand and trees on the right side of the fairway. Had to try and punch one out with a 5 iron to miss some low hanging branches. Came out too hot and left, ended up in the left front green side bunker. Bunker shot out which rolled to the back edge off the green, 2 putts for bogey.
