Par 4 - Handicap 15, Forward Par 4 - Handicap 13
Palmer - 339, Tournament - 318, Club - 300, Forward - 237
 At first glance, this short par four may appear to be out of place in Texas. This 350-yard hole resembles a Scottish links golf hole with its isolated target areas, grass bunkers and hollows, and thick and wiry rough defining the treeless borders of the fairway. The premium here is on accuracy. Because it is a relatively short hole, the wise player may choose to sacrifice distance for an accurate shot, selecting a four wood or long iron off the tee. However, the distance given up off the tee will have to be made up; the player must truly consider his second shot on this hole before he plays his first. The very small green will hold only the high-lofted approach, but the green and its pin placement can be seen from the tee, which is valuable information for the thoughtful player.
