b'Salish CliffsGolf ClubSHELTON, WASH. THIS SEEMS LIKE A LOT. After playing the first two relatively benign opening holes,standing on the tee of this daunting downhiller, the urgeis to double-check the scorecard to make sure that this is,indeed, a par 3.And it is. If playing the proper tees, this is doable. With the elevationchange, choose the club accordingly. Dont think of theyardage. Let gravity be your friend. The green is large andwelcoming, and laying up short is not a bad place to be.With a large sunken greenside bunker on the left, thebailout is to the right, with a benevolent sideboard there tokick any shots onto the putting surface. Perched high on the tee box, take in the view, take in whatthe course gives you, and give back all that you can.
