Just curious, how long is that hole? Looks kind of short, so with that plus the elevation maybe the assumption was people would be using irons off the tee. (A bad assumption of course, since a lot of people will still use driver either because they're trying to get to the green in one, or because they don't know any better...)

The picture is a little deceiving. From the back it's around 430 yards, but the middle tees play somewhere near 400. Mix that in with an uphill approach shot and most tend to pull driver.

    • We had a member of our senior club who developed a mental block on pulling the trigger. I played with him to see what the membership was talking about. I timed him a few times when he would get over the ball. 45 seconds. He knew he had a mental block and would chide himself, “Just hit it!” Once on the green he was okay and chipping was a bit better. It was painful to watch him struggle. Our “bandaid” was to put him in the last tournament  tee time with two understanding players. We should have suggested to him to take a break from our tournaments. I agree with the idea that when a player realizes they have a problem, the answer is to go fix it and not return until they are able to play at an acceptable pace.
