16th Hole

Now onto the final par 3 here at Arbroath, at 182 yards from the Medal tee, the wind can make all the difference on this hole. Into the wind I have seen myself hitting 4 iron to get back to the back flag location and downwind with a front pin and slightly forward tee can be hitting a little Pitching Wedge! The beauty of links golf right there! The key here is to avoid the deep pot bunkers that surround the green, you tend to get a little bit of help from the slopes if you avoid the bunkers so there is always a chance of a 2 here at 16! I would always suggest taking a club more than you first think here as there really isn’t any trouble long.
