ImageHeading in on #18 @ Golden Gate Heights you have 541 yards to traverse on a very reachable par 5. Off the tee you have a very slight right dogleg which brings a very large 'pit bunker' into play on the right side that could play havoc on your score. Avoiding that pitfall you have a very reachable green but not without consequence if you miss. Water protects the right side and another 'pit bunker' guards the left front so most will lay up short and chip for for birdie.
Views from tee, approach and behind the green.
I wish all a Happy and Safe Fourth of July!!Image

Golden Gate Heights is completed and U/L to the site. Left Brian a message and I'm sure he'll make it available as soon as he finds time. I also sent a copy to Tarheel as he asked since there is currently problems with the files. Included in the zip file is the course, two rounds and three flags. It was another enjoyable task to endeavor and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed designing it.Image
