Signature Hole
“easygolfbooking.com” recommends hole # 18, par 5, as a must play hole at Chiangmai Highlands. This unique finishing hole offers a breathtaking 360-degree view of the entire course, and a challenging approach shot to a difficult green.
The hole extends a handful 558 yards from the back tee, or 512 yards from the white tee, providing long hitters with a chance to get close to the green, or on, in two and walk away happy with a comfortable birdie. This happy ending is only possible if your tee shot chased down the sloping fairway, well passed the 300-yard mark.
This will leave you with a daunting 2nd shot to the green, using fairway food or long iron to carry over a stream and numerous sand bunkers guarding the front edge of an elevated green. An alternative route is to go for the green in regulation, placing your 2nd shot in front of the stream and follow up with a wedge, to comfortably reach the green in three.
The large contoured sloping green are not easy to handle, you need to position the ball close enough to the flag in order to come away with a one or two putt, or you may easily ended up with a miserable three putt.
Whatever the outcome, take your time on this refreshing final hole and appreciate the breathtaking panoramic view of surrounding highlands.
Come and conquer Chiangmai Highlands hole # 18 and enjoy golfing with “easygolfbooking.com”.
