Hole 10
Donald Ross started his routing of Oakland Hills with the 10th and 11th holes. The tee shot from the elevated 10th tee, probably a 3-wood, should avoid not only the four bunkers that line the landing area (one left, three right), but also a steep slope beyond the bunkers that could "kick" the ball into the thick rough. The second shot is uphill to a green guarded by a bunker left and a deep bunker right. The green has a crown in the middle and slopes severely downhill to the right hand bunker. The hole will require a mid-iron and the right-side hole location behind the bunker will be the most difficult.
