Description:
Of greatest notoriety at Plantation are the four holes on the back side of the Panther that members have labeled the "Panther's Claw". The 12th hole kicks off the Claw by showcasing a short and 90 degree dogleg right over two sections of an environmentally protected area. A Pine Valley type view of the green is not revealed until you get directly across from it at the turn of the dogleg. Wilderness bridges take you through a long run of natural Florida vegetation that connects this green to the 13th tees, step two of The Claw!
How to Play It:
Most players simply get overwhelmed with all of the potential hazards beckoning their tee shot here. Most players see this par 4 tee shot as a lay up shot and then underclub their way short of the turn to the green. Try taking more club than you would think and go ahead and hit it. The fairway does widen the further you go and you still have an open shot with a short club to the green. It is only a 58 yard carry across the junk in front of the green. Select a club that you know you can get some air time and you will safely carry that hazard.
