Southgate
is a
favorite
among
retired
players
because of
its laid
back feel.
This
6,100-yard
par-70
layout
features two
distinctly
different
nines. The
front side
is
relatively
flat and
cris-crosses
the lazy
Santa Clara
river.
Although not
a long
course, with
eight of the
nine holes
requiring
shots over
or around
water,
golfers must
bring their
"straight-shooting"
clubs. Five
holes on the
front nine
have been
redesigned
over the
past two
years. The
favorite
hole here is
the newly
remodeled
par-four
seventh.
After a tee
shot that
must avoid
the river on
the right
and
out-of-bounds
on the left,
players must
hit an
approach
shot over a
lake to an
undulating
green with
water right
and two deep
grass
bunkers
behind. The
new seventh
hole
epitomizes
Southgate's
demand for
accuracy.
When playing
the back
nine at
Southgate,
bring your
camera.
These nine
holes
traverse
along
Tonaquint
Mountain and
provide
awe-inspiring
views of the
St. George
area. Again,
this course
is not
overly long.
The key to
successful
navigation
is keeping
the ball in
the fairway.
As with most
mountain
courses, the
greens on
Southgate's
back nine
slope from
back to
front.
Remember to
always keep
your
approach
shot below
the hole and
you will
most likely
end up with
a scorecard
worth
showing off
to your
friends. |
