Gil’s Description
The ground level tee shot on the 12th hole is played from one of the most restrictive spaces on the course and is played out to a gently climbing fairway.

Avoiding the fairway bunkers will be the primary concern if the golfer has any hopes of getting to the green in two. Alternatively, getting close to the approach bunkers will yield a much shorter shot into the elevated green.

In a similar vein to the fifth hole, any ball landing short will most likely roll back down the hill. As a result, golfers may take a little extra club on this approach and may likely be above the hole putting downhill.
