At Westchester Golf course in Los Angeles, Ca. the first hole can be somewhat difficult due to the fact it's a par 3 ranging from 70 yds to sometimes 110 yds depending on the blue spot in the tee box location. I hear from many players, saying they're cold, stiff, tight, or it's just plain difficult hitting such a easy swing shot. I used my sand wedge, had a great draw that hit right by the left side of the pin and jump back right, right in the hole. I normally use and A wedge.
