The 11th plays anywhere from 145 yards all the way back to 200 yards. Depending on the tee selected, the hole may play seriously uphill or perhaps slightly downhill. The player may see all of the green on the tee shot, or almost none of it. There are more options at the 11th than a fat man has going through a buffet line at Thanksgiving.
After the tee has been selected, getting the ball to the green is challenging. The green sits atop a large sand hill, making it one of the most exposed green sites on the course. In high winds, the 11th can be dangerous. The preferred miss is right of the green (up near the Sherpa, A.K.A. caddy). Several bunkers are found below the green, including this vicious pot bunker on the right side. GPW's advice is to laser a hybrid 4 iron to 3 feet, as evidenced in the second picture, and drain the birdie putt to go 3 up on some poor sap from FL named Bo.
