18 Great Holes

7. 9th hole at Whitinsville Golf Club in Whitinsville Sick Stimets, whose victory at the State Mid-Am at New Seabury has become part of local folklore, says this par 4 is a hole you will be able to play twice since it is a nine-hole course. The hole plays 416 yards and 292 yards for women. Stimets warns that in order to be aggressive down the right side, it requires you a carry of 280 yards. His recommendation: Take aim off the tee at some small trees in the distance, middle left of the fairway. If you're too far to the right, your ball will kick toward the water.
