| Scorecard | | | Description:
There is plenty of visual stimulus for all players as they stand on this par 3 teeing ground. While #15 is not the longest of the par 3s, it is one of the more intimidating to look at. Like the 14th before it, this green is flanked tight on its right side by a sand bunker and very tall trees and wooded area. During the redesign of 2001 the large bunker out in front of this greens complex was rebuilt to appear closer to the landing area. In all, this could be "just another" par 3 if you could play it with your eyes closed.
How to Play It:
For both our men and women, #15 is the 16th ranked handicap hole. The ladies have 113 yards to the center of the green and the men's white tee offers 159 yards. This green is normally receptive to shots of even moderate loft. If players can get beyond the visual impact of the big bunker in front and the woods to the right, this is not a particularly difficult tee shot. The putting surface, like most at Plantation, slopes from back to front. In the heart of the season the front half of this green can get very quick. Approaching this hole from the bottom up is important. A downhill put to a forward pin at 15 can be treacherous.
