“McCormick Woods is one of the few courses where I love every hole. The ninth is cool because it’s one of those 90-degree, dogleg-left holes. You can cut off some of the distance with a drive that hugs the left side of the hole. That could leave you with a flat lie and a second shot to the green for a possible eagle, or it could lead to disaster if you go too far left into the trees. If you don’t go too far left, you could still end up with an awkward sidehill or downhill lie for your second shot. The best bet is to hit it down the middle, but be careful … if you hit it too far, you could find the woods. The second shot from that point is a layup with an easy wedge for a third to the green. It’s a birdie hole that I usually bogey.”
