Savannah Indian River Club will swat you with a heavy hand later in your journey, but welcomes you with a velvet glove at the first hole. A generous fairway beckons you off the tee with lots of room to spray your driver to the right. Of some concern is the marsh which must be dodged off the tee and a bunker on the left can create problems at the 150-yard marker. The slightly elevated green is framed nicely by palm trees enhancing the view left, but there is a menacing bunker for those who stray too far right. Pro's Playing Tip The first two holes are links design holes. Aim your tee shot right of the fairway bunker on your left side, this will give you a clean approach to the green. Origin of Hole Name The early Spaniard explorers called the extensive wet grass praries they encountered "Savannahs" after the grasslands of Africa. A remnant of those savannahs can be found along the right side of hole 1. Live aerial tour of Hole 1  | ||||||||||||||
