The first of our long Par 5’s and our 2nd longest at 600 yards from the championship tee, playing from the tees located next to natural spring fed pond, may take your mind off the task at hand, however this is a challenging hole. With an hourglass design, the fairway widens as you approach the green, before you get there you must first strike the blind tee shot. The fairway runs mainly down-hill towards the stream guarding the approach to the green.
Long hitters will be tempted to pull driver, but beware of the aggressive line; anything too far right or left of the tee probably won’t find its way off the under growth on the right, or hill slope down to the paddies and half way house to the left.
With a tree positioned left of the green, this is very well protected green, you must carry over the stream before the bunker and sufficiently up the Apron to avoid the well-placed bunkers and roll forward to the green. Too short and the ball will roll back to the stream on what will become a signature of The Dàlat At 1200 our aprons are bent grass and angled to reward and challenge all levels of golfers.
The Green is angled slightly right to left which rewards those who strategically position their approach
