Also contested hereHole 5Nearest Pin - Arden Hole 5. A short par 3 played slightly downhill to a large green, which is well‑guarded by five sizeable bunkers. Precision is critical, and the green warrants a confident shot that avoids those traps. Also contested hereHole 8Nearest Pin - Arden Hole 8. A short beauty played entirely over water to a tree‑framed green. With little room for error, precision off the tee is non‑negotiable—it's a classic visual and strategic test. Also contested hereHole 12Longest Drive - Arden. A birdie opportunity, but treacherous if attacked carelessly—water guards the green. Choose a club that avoids the hazard rather than flirts with it. On the green, focus on lag putting—the surface is undulating and speed matters more than line.
