Hole 11
The 11th is arguably the most picturesque of all of Beech Park’s holes. The green is set beyond a wide stretch of lily pond.
The water can be carried by the longest hitters but the advantage they gain is not worth the risk taken. A long iron to the landing area and a wedge to the heart of the green is by far the best policy. But when the wind blows strongly from left to right these plans can easily start to come apart at the seams.
The entrance to the 11th green is across an eighteenth century bridge that leads into an avenue of lime trees. Fifteen lime trees to be exact. Sixteen saplings were planted to commemorate the sixteenth birthday of the family’s youngest daughter. Shortly after her death in 1932 one of the trees blew down in a storm leaving an obvious void in the avenue.
Once across the stone bridge, a player finds himself in a quiet oasis of greenery, the surrounding trees deadening all outside sounds and completely cutting off any wind that may be blowing.
