Aspen 4

Aspen 4 is the second of the par 5s on this side and is the longest hole we have at IGC – measuring 570 yards from the back tee. In order to escape with a par or better, it will require three well-played shots to reach the green and laser focus on the green to get down in two.

The fairway is split with a large spruce tree giving an excellent target off the tee. Longer hitters beware – the downhill section at the end of the fairway can leave an awkward stance if you go too far. The layup area has a drastic slope from left to right which gathers balls around the 100-yard marker. Offline shots have the chance of finding a bunker, or the hazard that goes along the entire right-hand side of the hole. The two-tiered green slopes hard from left to right and is a tough two-putt.
