Do you have a Nemesis Hole?

Sorry Seamus but 7I-PW and you're in the water. Rememer the big pond. I've been really good lately at hitting 200-220 off the tee and then a nice iron but this hole still plays games with me.

#10 at Maplewood, 510 yard par 5, 'Dogleg' left.

It's  only a 'Dogleg' because the teebox is lined up on the left treeline, and that treeline is only about 20 feet wide with the cartpath and a freeway to the left of that. The fairway's one of the narrowest on the course, and while it sounds like it would favor a fade, it really doesn't. The landing area's maybe  25 square yards,  and then you contend with the creek running down the right side to to exactly 100 yards out, where it goes 45* left across the fairway.

Then there's the green, which is huge, but it's an upside down L with a bunker in the corner of it. I put my approach on there the other day, and couldn't see the hole from where I was at. The closest I could get from 30 feet was 8 feet or so, unless I chipped or hit the mythical Masse Putt.

It's the product of a redesign a few years ago, and it definitely has a 'Hammered In Feel' architecturally speaking.

It's followed by 11, which is a 410 yard par 4, uphill for the approach. 12's (170 yd par 3) no bargain either. If I can get through 'OhSh*tCorner' 3 or 4 over, I'm having a good day.
