The problem is that they’re working on the wrong areas and a misunderstanding of just what makes somebody appealing to women. Because of the pervasive belief that sperm is cheap and eggs are expensive – the idea that women grant sexual access only to those who offer the best “value” – they tend to focus on the most obvious aspects of what supposedly makes men attractive: looks and material wealth, with “status” following third. Men tend to feel as though they’re at a disadvantage when it comes to dating and consistently look for the magic bullet that will maximize their efforts. I got on in three, sank the putt, and won my first tournament, so the 18th at Woodlake will always be one of my favorite holes.Men spend a lot of time worrying about being more attractive to women. You have to hit your drive in that narrow strip of fairway between the lakes, then you have a wide fairway leading up to the green. I came to the 18th last year at the Texas Open, leading Lee Trevino by one stroke, and it seemed like all I could see was the water. The fairway is surrounded on both sides by long fingers of water extending halfway to the green. Woodlake Golf Club, San Antonio 18th hole, 583 yards, par 5 If you’re short you’re in the water, and if you’re long you’re in danger of landing in the bunkers behind the green. You need a perfect drive, because the approach is a pressure shot. It’s got all the ingredients of a good driving hole: a narrow fairway, trees on both sides, and water guarding the green. Preston Trail is the home of the Byron Nelson Classic, and the 16th is a good golf test. Preston Trail Golf Club, Dallas 16th hole, 428 yards, par 4 You don’t want any long putts on that green. The first shot has to be long and straight, and the second had better be close to the pin. All the golfer can see standing at the tee is two rows of trees coming closer and closer together as the fairway approaches the creek. Municipal Golf Course, Austin 7th hole, 420 yards, par 4īen Hogan once called this “the hole without a fairway.” The fairway runs downhill to a creek, then uphill to a rolling, sloping green. If the ball fades you’re in the water, and if you pull it, you’re in a bunker on the left-or worse, in the trees. This hole requires a well-controlled shot alongside a lake to a green guarded by three bunkers. Great Southwest Golf Club, Grand Prairie 3rd hole, 236 yards, par 3 The hole has a downhill-uphill layout, but if you make a mistake it’s all uphill. There’s a gully down the left side and a steep slope behind the green if you go left or over it’s practically an automatic six. It has a narrow fairway, giving you only about 30 yards to land in. I took a double bogey on this hole during the qualifying for the national junior championship. Houston Country Club, Houston 5th hole, 413 yards, par 4 I birdied the hole when I won the Southern Amateur. The entrance to the green is very narrow and is guarded by two bunkers, and the green itself is also very narrow, so the second shot must be accurate. It’s a par five, but if you hit two good shots you can get home in two. I like the fifth at Champions because it rewards good golf shots. There’s no playing it safe, either, because if you try to stay to the right you can end up in the bunker to the right of the green.Ĭhampions Golf Club, Houston 5th hole, 499 yards, par 5 The fairway actually doglegs left around Cypress Creek, but you have to hit over the length of the creek to reach the green. This is about as hard a par three as you can find. A good drive, a good seven iron, and you’re on your way.Ĭhampions Golf Club, Houston 4th hole, 246 yards, par 3 To get a birdie, you have to stay to the left, avoiding the fairway bunker to the right and the trap to the right of the green. I picked up a three here on the first day of the Southern Amateur in 1973 and went on to win the tournament. It’s an ideal starting hole because two good golf shots give you a chance for a birdie-and there’s nothing like a birdie on the first hole to get you off to a good start. The hole is a long par four, but not too long. Champions Golf Club, Houston 1st hole, 445 yards, par 4
