Though with some life in him, he did manage a deuce on the 146-yard par-3 17 th hole. 15 and 16, and therefore went down in defeat with a final loss rendering of 3&2. My opponent could only match my pars on Nos. Another appropriate name for the club would certainly be Quail Lakes. This must be where the quail came to find the water. There is water left and right off the tee on No.
Oh what fun it would be to stay at the Lodge, have putting games there in the morning and evening and play the Quail Lodge Golf Course.Īs the golf course traverses back towards the clubhouse, one finds the lakes amidst the golf holes. Augustine, Florida adjacent to the World Golf Hall of Fame. Andrews or the one at the World Golf Village in St. On the golf course side of the Lodge is a putting course that nears the grandeur of the Himalayas at the Old Course in St. Though the 94-room hotel closed in November 2009, Edgar's restaurant remains open, and there is hope that the lodge will reopen soon. It is there approaching the 14 th green where one can see the tranquil Quail Lodge. Perhaps the dramatic vistas amongst the canyons and streams of Quail Lodge have distracted my opponent?Īnother birdie 4 at the short 502-yard 14 th from the front bunker in two strokes increases my margin to the largest in the match- 3 holes with only four holes remaining. The young pigeon finds great difficulty on the 221-yard par-3 12 th hole and allows me to win it with a bogey. The resultant bogey diminished my lead over the young video producer to one hole. The tenth green is well bunkered, and my approach shot found the bunker short right of the green. It is a beautiful canyon and frames the drive on the relatively short 345-yard par- 4 tenth hole.
While still along the Carmel River one now finds themselves looking down a canyon on the tenth tee. Once you come to the 10 th tee you realize the back nine is going to be a different experience than the front nine. Quail Lodge Golf Club is the type of golf course which gradually embraces you, and before you know it you are completely in love with the place whether you have a bad hole or not. This score would stand through the front nine. My birdie at the dog-leg-right 367-yard par-4 seventh hole from the right fairway bunker was my third winning hole in a row and put me 2-up in the match. The character of Quail Lodge continues to develop with the downhill 198-yard par-3 fifth hole with the green protected with bunker left and water right.Īfter a nice up-and-down for par, our match was all square. My pigeon was youthful and overconfident, right where I wanted him.

One of the most beautiful holes on the golf course is the natural uphill 403-yard par- 4 fourth hole.Īfter letting a negative thought enter my head as I took my driver back, I topped my drive and lost the hole to fall behind in the match by one hole.
