  1. Jan 11, 2024 · A dogleg is a bend in a golf course that forces golfers to make a sharp turn in order to reach the green. Doglegs can be either left or right, and they can vary in length and degree of difficulty. Doglegs can be a challenge for golfers of all levels of skill.

  2. Feb 13, 2024 · A dogleg turn refers to a sharp bend or turn in a path, whether it be a canyon, road, or even a staircase. Its defining characteristic is its sudden change in direction, creating a visually striking feature.

  3. Mar 8, 2022 · A dogleg hole is one that is crooked or bends like the hind leg of a dog. Doglegs tend to be strategic holes where the player must aim to find a suitable spot on the fairway from the tee with which to get around the bend, or dogleg of the hole, with the next shot.

  4. Feb 15, 2024 · A dog leg right turn is a type of corner on a race track that involves a sharp change in direction, often resembling the shape of a dog’s hind leg. Dog leg right turns are often used to slow down cars or to create a more challenging course.

    • Consider you options. As with most doglegs, the worst trouble lurks on the inside—but two bunkers guard the elbow, too. As a result, two options exist: Hammer a driver with a fade around the dogleg or lay back short of the bunker.
    • Stick to your go-to shot. If you struggle to hit the fade, this probably isn’t the time to learn how. Doglegs can play tricks on the mind because they seem to call for a curved shot, but shortcuts can lead to long delays; you can dissect the hole with two straight shots (or even draws) just as happily.
    • Don’t be a hero. Unless you’re playing in the actual Masters, hitting the 18th green in three shots isn’t a bad thing. Off the tee, hit the longest club you feel secure hitting, even if it’s an iron; with a confident weapon, you’ll give yourself the best chance to make a confident swing.
    • Swing through it. The first obstacle you have to conquer is the chute of trees directly off the tee. It’s a terrifying visual. On scary shots, often our natural instinct is to freeze up a bit.
  5. Top Holes, by staff writer Joe Whitley. Old Course: 9th, par 4, 373 yards Regarded by many as the best hole on the course, this sharp dogleg left is a real challenge to all standard of player. The green is guarded and the tee shot is tight thanks to trees at either side of the fairway.
