Hey "CMcCartney727".......because of that particular HOLE on the Front 9 of Kiawah...I AVOID that front 9!!!!! I have also lost (several) balls in that area...in the weeds & in that water ditch that crosses the fairway.
I ONLY play the Back 9 of Kiawah....there ARE ponds and streams to deal with on the Back 9, but, I just haven't had any issues on that portion of Kiawah.
When I have landed in the rough on the right side of that fairway with my Tee shot....I have learned....if I didn't (lay up) short of that "water ditch".....my ball would almost always end up in it, no matter which club I used.
There are JUST a few WGT holes (that I have found) that tend to EAT balls.....and THAT is definitely one of them!!!
