Particularly demanding holes at the La Quinta Country Club

The course opens with a par-four hole, which has bunkers on the fairway’s sides. It provides a choice, which might set the tone for the remainder of the play. The second hole can be a tad bit more difficult, especially as one requires an extremely precise tee shot. Most holes provide players an ample opportunity for birdies, that is if one remains sharp and makes precise shorts.

Hole 7, with a bunker on the left side, also needs a good shot for one to be able to score. Most of the holes are structured in this way, letting people score well and go home with a good day of golf, provided they stick to plan and follow a precise pattern of shooting. With countless bunkers littered across the course, scoring is all a matter of precision.
