favorite hole is probably #13 (old#4) at Koasoti Pines

toughest is #9 at Gray, it's always into the wind and long enough already

I know, its a bitch either way, but the tee shot on 12 is rather easy

No, but 3 has snagged some balls of mine before


You have to choose how much you want to cut off of that fairway and stay committed to your aim

I think it is the distance that gets me mostly on #12 and mentally I'm screwed as soon as I finish #11. I love how #12 follows a short par 3.

Back when I worked at Copper Mill in college and played 4 times a week I shot a +3 on the back nine. I doubled #12 of course. Unfortunately, I took a few years off of golf and went back to what I am now.

Hole 4 at Atchafalaya in Patterson. Im happy with a bogey on this hole.
Bayou Mistigris

Par: 4

Placement of your tee shot is critical on this difficult par 4. A lateral water hazard comes into play down the left side requiring an accurate tee shot and pinpoint approach to an undulating, bulk headed green. The fairway slopes from right to left adding to the challenge. Greenside bunkers on the right catch any shots hit too conservatively. A long, narrow green with water around the left side and behind makes this second shot one of the most demanding on the course. Take par and be thankful.

Yardage:

•Gator / Black 463
•Bear / Gold 441
•Eagle / Blue 394
•Owl / White 331
•Otter / Red 297

#13 at my home course. Long par 5 with bunkers down the right hand side of the fairway and water down the left. Then there is water short of the green, in addition to it being surrounded by more bunkers. You pretty much have to play it perfectly just to get a par.

13 is tough but you can get on in 2 with 2 good shots and a chance for eagle.

I hate and I mean HATE #2 at Tamahka in Marksville. I swear, I can birdie number one and get a 7 on 2 or I can make a bogey on one and still get a 7. It doesn't matter. The way the damn fairway lines up, fricks with my head and I end up left OB or right in the thick shite. Yesterday I played and bogeyed the hole and almost skipped back to the cart in joy.

#5 at Santa Maria, par 3 plays anywhere from 170-210 with water left and OB to the right (almost against the green). Always had trouble with that hole for some reason. Haven't played there in a long time but used to love the course for the most part.

#16 at LSU. When I was in school, I went in to #16 4 times needing to par 3 of 4 out to break 80 for the first time. Tripled 16 all four times. Twice sliced over the railroad tracks, Once duck hooked onto 17 fairway and hit #3 into the pond, and the last time had a great tee shot and proceeded to try to make birdie by hitting a three wood into the pond.

#9 at Webb, par 4... road on the left which makes me tend to block it to the right where a stand or large oak tree's are typically blocking the approach shot. A good drive leaves you about 165 to the green. The green is turtleback and protected by bunkers left, right and front left. You'd better be a good scrambler/putter to think about a par here. A birdie on this hole is stealing a stroke.

#6 at Calvert. Not long and usually on in 2. The green is ridiculous though and if you get out with a 2 putt, laugh and run to the cart.

Maybe the fact that it's a 460 yd par 4 into a 150 Sqft raised turtle back green guarded by a bunker.
