Hole: Eight
Golf Course:
Par: 4
Handicap: 1.
Length (from men's and women's tees): 369 and 252 yards.

What Makes This Hole Unique: This 392-yard par 4 is the longest hole on the course and is a very difficult par 4. In order to even see the flagstick, a drive of at least 225 yards is necessary.

Strategy: There's plenty of room on the right side of the hole, which gives you a little room for error. Just getting a par on this hole is a respectable score.
