it's crazy that number 13 is that challenging. It's just an uphill par 4 dead straight. But longish and the uphill only adds to it. The bunkers around (and especially in front of) the green can eat you alive too. You can't be above the green on 11 though. Just death. Especially if the pin is in the back. Lefty would struggle not to have the ball run all the way back to the bottomYep, from behind the green on old #11 (two holes before one of the most challenging holes on any public course). That one's actually as bad as, if not worse than it looks, if you're on the wrong side.
Did you two-putt that one? HAHA
Man, before those trees down the left of #9 grew up (when they were waist high and nobody ever used the practice green), we used to use WOODS (not metal woods) and aim off the left of that sand trap. A lot of times, it'd kick right and leave a chip on for an approach.
Good pics. I need to go down there.

As for number nine, in the summer, yeah, just aim over the bunkers and it's a chip in nowadays. Was in the 50s, so I played it safe and went down the middle of the fairway. In the summer I would've actually wound up in the creek with the drive I hit.
