"The 18-hole championship course at The Ranch Golf Club offers both a
challenging and rewarding golf experience. For that very reason, it will
surely keep calling you back. "
That is the quote from the website of the ranch golf club. As the more I
play there, the better I understand that statement. It is truly a risk-
reward course. The course featured dramatic elevation changes, rolling
hills, lakes & creeks, tiered fast bent grass green. Here is my strategy for
a weekend golf warrior to play the ranch.
Assuming to play from Blue Tee (Blue : 6389 yards 70.4/142), some of the
strategy need to be changed if it is played from Black Tee (Black : 6747
yards 72.8/150). As for white tee (White : 5808 yards 68.5/129), the course
designer tend to take away few difficult tee off positions. The course
should be played slightly easier with very similar strategy as from blue tee.
#1. 348 par4. handi 15. That is the first hole, it is a very "short" par4,
but because it is a the very first hole, and there is not driving range at
the ranch golf, somehow this hole becomes a very tough hole to play. It
offers the spectacular view for you to start the run. Right in front of tee
box there are canyons and creeks, and fairway is on the other side of canyon
. If you can ignore the visual intimidation, and play your regular tee shot,
all of us should be easily reach the fairway on the other side of canyon.
The key is to get off first hole jitter, and play a safe 80% swing tee shot.
Good players can choose tee of with iron or hybrid to land your first shot
on the fairway. Once you are on the fairway, you can easily expect a par,
worst case bogey. Again, bogey is good to start of your day. Par or birdie
is just a bonus.
#2. 416 par4. handi 11. Very tough hole. The #1 hole need tee off
conservatively, the #2 need tee off very aggressively. The green is tiered
and protected with canyon around it, need a very good short approaching shot
within 150 yards. Do the math, that requires 260-270 yards driving. Luckily
, the fairway was designed with downward slope, tee off to the left side of
fairway, once your tee shot land good spot of the fairway, it could have a
good roll. If your approaching shot is more than 180-190 away from green,
lay up and play this long par4 and par5 is not bad. Bogey is the good score
from this hole.
#3 360 par4 handi 13. Dog leg right. You cross the canyon twice, first at
tee off, second at approaching shot. The good landing spot is around 150
yard mark. Tee off with your 200-210 clubs, for most players, that means
hybrid or 3woods, and keep your driver in the bag. The second approaching
shot tend to play longer than the yardage book, take at least one more club
to approach. again, bogey is a good score.
#4 567 par5 handi 3. Long par5. The end of the fairway is the 150 yard mark,
and there is essentially nothing but canyon between end of fairway and the
green. So play safe for this one is to treat it as a par6. After tee shot,
layup to around 150 and find good spot for approaching shot. The goal for
his hole is avoid big number. bogey is acceptable.
By now, if you haven't lose half-of-dozen your Prov-1s, you should pat your
shoulder, tell yourself, you are in good shape. But just be prepare, there
are at least 3 more tough holes to grind.
#5 180 par3 handi 7. That hole is easier than the scorecard shows. The green
is long and sideway from the tee box, which are very typical. Should take
advantage this hole. Par is good score. #5 and #8 are the easiest holes in
front 9, and only two holes you can expect good scores.
#6 449 par4 handi 1. The No.1 hole on the course. But actually, if you play
it as if it is a par5. The hole is much easier than the score card says. It
is a dog-leg left. Need tee off across canyon. Since the fairway is sideway,
it is very hard to expect any roll from your driver off tee. You need be
precise with your landing spot. Without any good roll, 449 par4 is just out
of reach in 2 shots for amateur, so play it as a par5, find a easy spot to
land for tee shot, and then lay up. Bogey is a perfect score.
#7 511 par5 handi 9. Another tough hole. Dog leg right par5. The green is
severe tiered and protected by water, which make it almost un-reachable in 2
. Luckily for all my play here, I only 2-on that par5 once. I missed the 20
feet eagle putt. (That is a story for some other time). If you are long
hitter (at least 260 carry for this hole), aiming the 200 yards mark. The
tee box is sit on a hill side, the tee shot need fly over the canyon,
visually, the 200 yard mark are far. There are 3 nested bunkers at the edge
of the fairway, tee shot need carry over those bunkers to reach the 2000-
yard mark. If your tee shot can not carry at least 260, you can play safe,
since you need lay-up to 100-yard mark for approaching the green over water.
If you don't lose your ball in the pond, you could get par from this hole.
But try to avoid big number is the key for this hole.
#8 124 par3 handi 17. The easiest hole in the front 9. You have been through
too much, i am sure, most of us, already decide to quit golfing before
reach #8. The designer throw a bone (or nugget) to lure you back to golfing.
Expect a par or birdie from this hole.
#9 472 par5 handi 5. Dog-leg right. It is a short par5. The left-side is OB,
you might tee off with 3wood instead of driver, just to avoid big number.
It is the No.5 handi for a reason. On paper it should be a easiest par5 in
the front 9, but just try not over-power it, don't take any risk on this
supposed-to-be easy hole, since there is just no reward at all. the green is
big and long, depends on the pin position, even you reach the green in 2,
you still need another chip from the green. Just play it simple, easy 3
shots to reach green, and 2 putt to get a easy 5.
Once you finish the front 9 without lose your limbs, you survived.
Of course if you are still reading up to now, I guess you have nothing else
better to do, and just waste bunch of your precious time.
To be continued ...

in the lack of a driving range, there are two hitting nets. one can warm up
hitting a few balls into the net before getting on the first tee.
