The Western Hills Golf Club is a short course, but what the course lacks in size, it makes up for in several challenges throughout a round. Perhaps nowhere on the course is this more evident than on the par-3 second hole. In addition to the green being completely separated from the fairway by a lake that runs from left to right across the fairway, those who carry the lake also must remember the two bunkers at the front of the green.
