Hole 2 - Par 4

392 yds / 377 yds / 362 yds

The 2nd hole is slight dogleg left, which crosses a rolling hill with a large dip before the green. A shallow bunker borders the left side of the green, shielded to some degree by some overhanging trees. A fairway shot over the hill and past the Safety Flag should make par possible.

Hole 2 is the first to make use of the Safety Flag in the center of the fairway. Do not confuse this for the green, as its not even halfway through the hole. The concept here is to play to the flag, take it out, and then once your party is fully past it, replace it, so the next party knows its safe to play on.

I've never seen this used once on the course. I don't think anyone really follows this rule, but following the rules isn't exactly of paramount importance, it seems.
