Hole #3 - Dogleg right par 4 measuring 383 yards. A fade off the tee will set up for a short to mid iron approach. 2 bunkers protect the left and front right of the green. Tips: This is a very tight driving hole as the dogleg runs to the right and the fairway runs to the left. Tee up of the far left side of the tee box to give yourself plenty of room with the ball eating trees on the right. Block out a shot and you will have a tough time making 5. If you hook it, you could wind up near the trees located by the waters edge of Loch Raven. Your best shot off the tee is a slight fade starting your ball at the huge tree on the left side of the fairway about 100 yards from the green. Your approach shot will need an extra ½ club to get to the green. You have room behind this green sloping from front to back. Most people end up short of the hole or just plain short of the green. When you are walking on to green #1, take a look at the pin on #3. If the pin is all the way back, you will need an extra club in addition to the uphill ½ club requiring a total of 1 ½ clubs extra. Always check the wind on the right hand side of the green, as the natural tree vent can channel quick thrusts of wind and provide for tricky club selection. Typically the wind is in your face as it comes through the opening adjacent to the first green on the right. This is a good green to take a run at the hole as it putts very true. The bunker on the right side will push the ball left more than you think. Any approach shot left of the green is dead. There is a grove of trees, a cart path, and a deep bunker that will make any attempt to land on the green almost impossible.

Hole #4 - This hole is a downhill par 3 measuring 177 yards. Short and right are preferable to long and left on this hole, as the left and back of the hole drop off into woods and the Loch Raven Reservoir.

Tips: Wind is everything here. On a windless day, you can expect to use only ½ club less than you normally would. Don't be fooled by this sharp down hill par 3. This hole can turn from a 1 club wind to a 4 club wind during the round and depending on the where the tee markers and pin is placed. Your safest bet is to shoot for the middle and try and make your birdie putt. If you get too aggressive, you could wind up in a hole lot of trouble, including the bunkers, Loch Raven, and the woods behind the green. Make sure you know the distance to the pin and to the front of the green from the tee markers you are playing. The front bunker is 10 yards short of the green, but looks as though it is right next to the green from the tee box. This is why most people do not have much success on this green. Putting is only difficult if the pin is on the front left or right. The rest of the green is fairly flat and the putts roll very true. Never shoot at a left pin, as any hook will send you spiraling into Loch Raven. The grass between Loch Raven and the green would not hold a cooked pea. It is very short and very hard. This green slopes from back right to front left.
