The par 4 seventh plays quite a bit longer than its yardage. The tee shot must carry the legendary pond where “Steam-shovel” Banks allegedly lost his steam-shovel during construction of this hole. You are best served by hitting your tee shot as close as you dare along the right edge of the left tree line, leaving an uphill shot that plays two clubs longer than its distance. Anything that is short of the green will roll back down the steep slope that fronts the green. The green itself is in a classic “punchbowl” configuration, where all of the sides slope in towards the green surface. The green itself has two well defined levels, with a pin on the top left shelf almost always presenting a test of your putting skills.
