Hole 6 · Par 4 · 276 yds

The camel-back green — a 1990s changeling

The short par-4 sixth features an unusually long, narrow green with pronounced interior contour — described as camel-back in plan — creating exacting recoveries for anyone who misses on the wrong side.

But this green is not the one Ross-era players putted. Reader correspondence and aerial-photo research place the current green’s first appearance in 1995: the original sat about 25 yards short and to the left, flatter and smaller, with the original tee 70–80 yards further back on land now occupied by housing. A stranded right-side fairway bunker between the 5th and 6th corridors still marks the old line of play.
