Coral Canyon

Its Coral Canyon Golf Course takes its name from the red rock formations which resemble aquatic life forms (never think about the fact that you're close to the city in Hurricane, Utah). Monitoring Keith Foster's design strategy, and not just the 40-mile views from a few of the fairways, can be a difficult task. While residential developments may occasionally are visible however, they are kept away from the course and Foster uses the natural terrain to take on the bulk of the challenges.

No. 6 is a par 3 worthy of being included in those in the St. George region's many beautiful one-shotters. It's a simple hole and is only 122 yards from back tees. There's not much to do apart from the green however, there's desert scrub lining the putting surface, and an incline on the left. Foster is famous for his many restoration projects on A.W. Tillinghast courses, but he also has also created his own "Hell's quarter acre" on his own in No. 12.

The final round of this round is somewhat unusual, as the players play their final four holes at No. 15, and then finish with a par 5 and a par three and a par five. Make sure you hit some shots!
