Hole #8 - Turtle Ridge
A short dogleg right par four with water on the left and marsh all the way down the right. The tee shot should not travel more than 220 because the fairway runs out on the left and there's more marsh to the right. After a well placed tee shot down the center, the approach is played with more than a wedge to a small sloping green which is protected by bunkers and grassy mounds.

Tip: Don't let this short par 4 fool you, it has produced its fair share of double bogeys. An iron off the tee is all that is needed. Left center is ideal. A short iron should help you get on this well guarded green. Played correctly, this hole can be par or better.
