Design Innovation: The Legends Nine at Bacon Park - Hole #7

Hole #7: Par 5 (490-436-411-355)

I wanted to keep this green unified with the last hole by incorporating another ridge feature. By rotating the ridge from a 9:00 – 3:00 orientation to more of a 7:00 – 2:00 angle, we created some variety. In addition, we defined the upper and lower tiers. One detail was to vary the width of the step between tiers, widening it the most as it turned around the widest point of the lower tier before rolling toward the back and tying it into the back right mound complex. Each mound bleeds into the putting surface at different angles as well.
