This week's edition of The Hole Picture focuses on Seven Bridges Golf Club in Woodridge, specifically the hole that closes out the front nine. This monster of a par 5, at 579 yards, can give you momentum going into the challenging back nine or sweep it away. Here's how head pro Cory Ferrell suggests you attack it:
"Depending on your tee shot, you can be rewarded going into the back nine; (No. 9) offers a chance to go for the green in two. Depending on the Chicago winds would be the next thing. If it's into you, it's going to be more of a challenge to carry the little creek that goes in front.
"I think that hole's a good challenge where you rewarded for two good shots if you can get it on the green. it's probably not the most challenging hole, but it goes back to course management and making decisions. You've got to really think yourself around the course."
